Great Smoky Mountains

Ah, the Great Smoky Mountains. Where you breath in the crisp mountain air, watch sunrises over the layered mountains that you are happy to wake up early for, hike the many trails that may leave you out of breath but the beauty of nature surrounds you and makes it all worth it. 

We made the eight hour drive to Tennessee for our yearly family vacation. Our vacation rental was located in Sevierville and had amazing views of the mountains in the distance. I thoroughly enjoyed waking up before everyone (who am I?) to experience the amazing sunrises from the deck of the house. 

Found Paradise on St. Barth's

When I think back on our trip to St. Barth's, I think of relaxed opulence, winding hill roads with sweeping ocean views, lively nightlife, warm clear turquoise water, swaying palms, and food to die for. It has easily made its way to the top of my favorite Caribbean islands list. 

Scotland Road Trip

As much as we were sad to say goodbye to Edinburgh, we were excited to venture out and start exploring Scotland's vast countryside.

Touring Edinburgh

It's been awhile since my mom and I took a trip together, just the two of us. We were due for a girls trip. We decided to immerse ourselves in our Scottish roots and take our mother/daughter trip to Scotland. 

We arrived to Edinburgh in the morning and headed straight to our hotel. Our room was not quite ready so we freshened up in their spa changing rooms, then hit the ground running. 

Getting Lost in Dubrovnik

I'm just going to ignore the fact that this trip now feels like a lifetime ago. I am clearly not consistent with posting.
