Staying in a real trulli in Alberobello honestly feels like living inside a fairytale ✨🏡

These iconic little white stone houses with cone-shaped roofs date all the way back to the 14th century and were built using a dry-stone technique, no mortar at all. Legend has it they were designed this way so locals could quickly take them apart to avoid taxes from the Kingdom of Naples 👀

Fast forward to today, and these once “temporary” homes are now beautifully preserved and even recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

But here’s the best part… you don’t just visit them, you can actually stay in one 🤍 Waking up in a trulli, walking through these magical streets, and soaking in the charm of this one-of-a-kind village is something I’ll never forget.

Have you ever heard of Altamura? 🇮🇹
It’s known as the bread capital of Italy… and honestly, now I get why.

I had the chance to tour Panificio del Duomo, a super traditional bakery that’s been doing things the same way since the 80s, using methods that go back centuries.

Their famous Pane di Altamura DOP is the real deal—made with local durum wheat and natural sourdough, following strict rules so it stays authentic to the region. Simple ingredients, slow process… and you can taste the difference.

And let me tell you… it was SO good. Like the kind of bread you could sit there and eat all day with nothing on it.

This is what I love most about traveling—finding places like this that aren’t flashy or touristy, just deeply rooted in tradition and culture. Real experiences, real food.

Honestly… I could have stayed here all day just snacking and watching life go by. 🥖✨

A perfect day in Baños - where adventure and culture come together in the best way. 🌿

The day starts with an adrenaline rush, flying through the mountains on a zipline with unreal views all around. From there, it’s time to slow things down with a scenic hike to one of the area’s most breathtaking waterfalls, Pailón del Diablo - powerful, misty, and absolutely unforgettable.

After a full day of exploring, we stayed at the cutest little hotel just a short walk from the town center, making it easy to wander around and soak in the local vibe.

Dinner? Authentic Ecuadorian BBQ - simple, flavorful, and exactly what you need after a day like this. And to end the night, nothing beats a little salsa, music, and dancing in the heart of town.

Adventure, nature, food, and culture all in one place… what more could you ask for?

Giant’s Causeway is a famous natural landmark made up of about 40,000 hexagonal basalt columns formed by volcanic activity around 50–60 million years ago. As lava cooled and cracked, it created the unique stone formations that look like stepping stones leading into the sea. According to Irish legend, the giant Fionn mac Cumhaill built the causeway to cross to Scotland and fight a rival giant. Today, it is a protected site and a UNESCO World Heritage Site, known for its geological importance, dramatic coastal scenery, and rich folklore. 🌍

From glam start to end-of-night-glow✨ I put my makeup to the test and locked it in with the Ready Set Sealed Longwear Continuous Fix and Set Spray from Juvia’s Place - and it did not disappoint.

A few sprays after my makeup routine, and everything stayed in place beautifully. No fading, no creasing - just a smooth, fresh finish that held up all night long.

If you’re looking for a setting spray that actually keeps your look intact from day to night, this one is definitely worth trying.

Why stay only in Rome when you can explore something a little more off the beaten path? Just outside the city, in the charming town of Bracciano, you’ll find one of Italy’s most stunning hidden gems - the Castello Orsini-Odescalchi.

This historic castle dates back to the 15th century and feels like stepping straight into a different era. Walking through its stone halls climbing up the towers, and exploring the quiet courtyard give you that rare feeling of having a place almost entirely to yourself - no crowds, no rush, just pure atmosphere.

At the top, you’re rewarded with breathtaking views over Lake Bracciano, stretching out like an endless blue horizon. It’s the kind of view that makes you stop and just take it all in.

if you’re looking to experience a quieter, more authentic side of Italy, this is a place you don’t want to miss.

I’ve loved orchids for as long as i can remember. Being a proud plant mom means my home is always full of plant babies, and some of my orchids have actually been with me for over 10 years. That’s one of the things i love most about orchids: with the right care, they just keep thriving year after year. 🌱

Because I care so much about keeping them healthy, I’m always looking for the best products to support their growth. Recently I started trying supplies from Sol Soils and I’ve been really impressed with the results. My orchids have been doing amazing since I started using them.

Today i refreshed the mix for a few of my plants by adding perlite and LECA balls to help improve drainage and airflow around the roots. It’s a small step, but it makes a big difference in keeping orchids happy and healthy.

If you’re a fellow plant lover, definitely check out Sol Soils. They have great products for plant care, and everything ships quickly right to your door.

Safe to say…my plant babies and I are big fans.🌱

Planning a family cruise and have questions?

A special mother-and-son adventure aboard the incredible Wonder of the Seas with Royal Caribbean International. Traveling with my 9-year old son turned this trip into something unforgettable, and according to him, it was the best vacation ever.

The excitement started the moment we stepped on board. His first mission was heading straight to the Boardwalk area to check out the classic carousel, explore the arcade games, and see the massive Abyss slide. From that moment on, the ship basically became his playground. One activity quickly became his absolute favorite - rock climbing. He kept going back again and again throughout the trip, challenging himself each time. Another highlight was trying the FlowRider surf simulator.It was so much fun to watch and try, though it's worth planning a little extra time since it's a popular spot on the ship.
When we stopped at the Perfect Day at CocoCay, we slowed things down a bit and spent time relaxing by the beach. There were also plenty of games happening in the sports area, so he jumped right into volleyball matches and even challenged me to a game of giant chess.

One of the surprises of the trip was the ice skating show onboard. I convinced him to come with me, and by the end he absolutely loved it. Sitting in the front of row made it even more exciting, the view of the performers on the ice was incredible.

Of course, we also made a stop at the sweet shop Sugar Beach, which felt like every kid's dream with wall full of colorful candy.

And a few times during the cruise he happily ran off to the kids club to hang out with other kids his age, which was totally fine with me because he was having the time of his life.

Trips like this remind me how special it is to travel together and create memories that will last forever.

Feel free to reach out - happy to help.🛥

It’s incredible to be surrounded by such a beautiful space while you’re literally in the middle of the ocean. The live music is fantastic, the specialty restaurants are outstanding, and it’s the perfect place to just sit back and unwind. Central Park is beautifully designed …truly impressive.#cruiselife #familytravel #royalcaribbeancruise

One of my all-time favorite spots from my Westchester, NY days is Lefteris Gyro. You truly can’t go wrong with anything on the menu — and there’s a reason they’ve been a local favorite for over 20 years.

#westchesterny #tarrytown #bestfood #greekfood

Located in beautiful Tarrytown in Westchester County, it’s an absolute must-visit if you’re in the area. Trust me… you won’t regret it.

Best Things to Do in NYC!

• 🌳 Wander through Central Park — picnic, people-watch, rent a bike
• 🏙️ Hit the top of Top of the Rock or Empire State Building for those unreal skyline views.
• 🎭 See a Broadway show in the Theater District — even last-minute tickets can be gold.
• 🖼️ Get lost in the The Metropolitan Museum of Art or Museum of Modern Art (MoMA = elite rainy-day plan).
• 🌉 Walk the Brooklyn Bridge at sunset. Trust me.
• 🍕 Grab a slice at Joe’s Pizza and eat it standing up like a local.
• 🚶‍♀️ Stroll the High Line for cool city views + art vibes.
• 🌆 Explore DUMBO for that classic Manhattan Bridge photo.
• 🚢 Take the free Staten Island Ferry for Statue of Liberty views without spending a dime.
• 🌃 Wander Times Square at least once. It’s chaotic. It’s bright. It’s very “I’m in New York.”

Dollywood is home to a real, coal-fired steam train you can actually ride 🚂
The Dollywood Express isn’t a replica, it’s an authentic historic locomotive, powered the old-fashioned way with coal. As it winds through the Smoky Mountains, you’ll hear the whistle, smell the steam, and yes… it even shoots out real soot and ashes, just like trains did back in the day. It’s a rare, hands-on piece of living history and one of the most unique experiences in the park.
