I’ve mentioned on this space to you guys before that 2019 has been my year to sloooowww things down, but haven’t shared how this has effected my approach to travel! In the past, all of my trips felt like a blur. Sure, there were wonderful memories tucked in, but the constant GO definitely took away from some moments. This solo road trip is the first time it’s been the opposite, and it feels AMAZING. Like, is this what a vacation feels like?? kind of amazing. Taking steps every day to be present and mindful of myself and my surroundings, to smile (and talk to 😱) strangers, and just...be. No schedule, no stress, no rules. Have any of you solo road tripped/ vacationed before?
Missing this one a little extra today now that he’s 3,000 miles away. People often ask me how we make it work, both traveling as often as we do (and usually to opposite ends of the country). The truth is, sometimes it’s REALLY HARD!! That age old saying that distance makes the heart grow fonder is so true, you guys! Some days I miss V like crazy, and get so home sick I cry. And other days, we’re both just so excited for what the other is doing, it feels like we’re standing right next to each other. Travel is always tricky, but it makes our time together that much better. Would love to hear from you guys, and if you’ve gone through a similar experience! 💙
Rainy Sunday rituals : hot coffee, wool socks, a favorite album, and a good book. What else do ya need? 😌
Guys! The sun is shining, I’m on the coast, and I’m surrounded by cute cabins. Safe to say it’s gonna be a good day. Hope this Saturday has you smiling ☺️💛
All of your comments on my last post about summer plans made me realize how unprepared I am with my own! Spent the last couple days really thinking about what I want out of the next few months, and how to go about making the most of them. Then I kind of threw that all out the window and thought, no time like the present! So today I’m embarking on my first road trip of the summer, up to Acadia National Park!! If you happen to live in Maine, would love to link up ☺️🦐🌲🌊
It’s getting on that time of year where my wanderlust is reaching an all time high. Currently dreaming of warm weather adventures and 10pm sunsets, campfires and hammock naps (lots of hammock naps). Do you guys have any plans for summer yet?!
Summers for me have always equated to being close to the water, from island camping in the Adirondacks to ferry rides from the Cape to Martha’s Vineyard. I think that’s why Iceland felt so nostalgic to me, because every day brought us along a magical bit of coastline! Currently working on all my blog posts from this trip, and missing this dreamland a little extra today 💛
Do you guys want to know something funny? It wasn’t until I went full-time freelance earlier this year that I started to truly appreciate the weekend! All of my adult years prior to this one have been spent working jobs with odd hours, and the normal Saturday + Sunday free time just didn’t exist. So now that I have them, I GET IT. My weekends are so precious to me, the time I get to catch up with friends and loved ones, sleep in, have adventures, grab coffee in my neighborhood...just all the things that make me smile. I hope you guys are able to give yourself a little time this weekend and do something that makes you smile, too :)
