Who’s ready to go to Greece this summer? 🇬🇷
I know I am !✨
There’s three things you should know about Greece in the summer
1. Yes, it’s just like the video makes it out to be
2. It’s even better
3. You’ll have the best Greek salad of your life on this trip.

And on top of all that, it’s one of the sunniest places in the world, and also one of the windiest… so be sure to pack your Sunnies and hair clips! #TheBohoDoesGreece

One of my New Year’s resolutions is to post to the blog more regularly!  I’m trying to get approved for media one this year (IYKYK) and that means more consistent posting!

Last year I did pretty well (better than any other year!) but I was still working 2 full time jobs and hadn’t fully committed to the social nomad computer only work from wherever lifestyle.

Well… this year I’m giving it all I got!  and today there is a brand new blog post up there just for you! It’s been a long time coming, finally I can present my Scotland Travel Guide 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿

Head over to the link in my bio or stories and read on about this amazing wee country (and support your resident travel blogger!) #thebohodoesscotland

In this Scotland travel guide I’ll talk basics, logistics, things to do, and give a few sample itineraries!
What to expect as a subscriber! What to expect as a subscriber!
The number one question I get asked is probably “what is your favorite place you’ve ever travelled to?” And honestly, I don’t have kids, but I imagine it’s like trying to pick your favorite child. Nearly impossible.

There are a few destinations I keep gravitating back to - Italy, Scotland, Greece, Morocco to name a few, but there are some places I truly loved I may never return to - Peru or Hungary for example.
 
So for now, I don’t have a lock tight answer. Maybe once I’ve been everywhere. But not yet. For now, I’ll refrain from picking!

How do you respond to this question?
That feeling when, after 6 years of being a small That feeling when, after 6 years of being a small time content creator, travel blogger, & digital nomad, you’re finally an LLC.  Celebrating today 🥂 #TheBohoTraveller
Who else is bringing this energy into 2023? ✨ th Who else is bringing this energy into 2023? ✨ that wild energy that is still grounded? Yeah. That’s what I’m searching for 🧡 #thebohodoesscotland
Hello 2023 ✨ and just like that another year has Hello 2023 ✨ and just like that another year has passed us by. A year full of laughs and tears, love and loss, new beginnings and needed endings.

2022 was such an amazing year in both my personal 2022 was such an amazing year in both my personal and business growth.

I didn’t plan any travel for half the year, I was away at another job and focusing on my in-travel clients, and I am still blown away by the numbers.

Crazy to think that 6 years ago this was just a little blog started because everyone kept asking me how I managed to move to Florence 🧡 couldn’t have asked for a better full circle

🥂 cheers to a new year and many more new beginnings and many more pleasant surprises from hard work and a product of passion #TheBohoDoesScotland
Paris December 2022 VS Paris December 2016 Can yo Paris December 2022 VS Paris December 2016

Can you tell which one is happier? 😝

All I can tell you is that these are two very different women in each of these photos. Sure, the core of each is the same, but the life lived in a span of six years, has altered the world of the woman in these photos.
The 2016 version of me went to Paris with less than €250 in her bank account for an entire weekend, completely solo.  She was recently single, and couldn’t even dream up the later version. She had just started a blog and was hungry for the world around her, but unsure where to begin.
2022 sydney went to Paris with much more money than that in her pocket (thankfully) and was on her way for one of the most authentic travel experiences ever on board the @vsoetrain & to attend the world’s leading luxury travel event in Cannes. She isn’t just hungry for the world, she loves it and those she’s with.

And while they are two totally different people, I would never have been one without the other. Without the dreams and tiny blog that started in 2016, I wouldn’t have had the passion or the drive to reach where I am at the end of 2022. And without the 2016 version of me, I wouldn’t now possess the experience to tell you to NEVER throw away your Paris metro tickets, lest you be robbed of your last remaining euros  by the French police 😅
Always remembering this beautiful life is about ~balance~
Happy holidays ✨#TheBohoDoesFrance
Something about train travel is so special. Maybe Something about train travel is so special. Maybe I’m a romantic, but it transports you not only in space, but in time- allowing you to glimpse into a generation not quite forgotten, but perhaps disregarded.

And if I ever have to chose a train to take, it will undoubtedly be the @vsoetrain by @belmond
What I didn’t mention were the tennis courts, in What I didn’t mention were the tennis courts, incredible spa facilities, and large selection of French Wine on the menu.
So, when’s your next Caribbean holiday? #TheBohoDoesStMaarten #TheBohoBeachBum #TheBohoDoesBelmond
If you’re a Floridian you won’t care, but if y If you’re a Floridian you won’t care, but if you’re from anywhere else you’ll love that I was paid to be here 🧡
Step on board the @belmond @vsoetrain with me. I Step on board the @belmond @vsoetrain with me.  I am honestly still pinching myself that this was real! Here’s a sneak peak to what our night was like! Missing: my random serenade to the bar, the DJ, and a 3 course Michelin star dinner.

I was going to completely have the audio overlay, but the original audio blended so well I had to include it 🥺 #TheBohoDoesBelmond #TheBohoDoesFrance #orientexpress #VeniceSimplonOrientExpress
