My latest travel favs ❤️

Happy Thursday! I'm home in Chicago for one more week before a mini trip, and I'll be honest: I'm stumped on what to write! I was going to tell you all about the new Entry-Exit System (EES) being implemented at borders in the European Union for non-EU travelers, but the start date has been pushed back (again!). I'll send you all the details you need to know once a new date is set, but if you want to learn more now, you can read more about the delay or learn about the EES on the EU website. Until then, let me highlight some of my favorite travel planning resources. I'm in the midst of planning a few big trips, and I'm spending a TON of time on these sites looking for places to stay, things to do, European train tickets, and more.

Travel Insurance One of the things I get asked about the most is travel insurance. Should you get it, and if so, which one? You should have travel insurance, as you never know when things may go wrong. SafetyWing is my go-to for travel insurance because it covers so much, is easy to purchase for days or months, and is affordable. Many credit cards also include travel insurance. I get SafetyWing on top of my credit card insurance. Learn more about SafetyWing and the benefits of using them in my blog post about travel insurance. |

Happy Thursday! And Happy Halloween everyone 🎃 I'll be honest, Halloween is probably my least favorite holiday. I don't like dressing up, but I do LOVE seeing other people's costumes and how creative they can be. While Halloween is spooky, you know what's scarier? Overpaying for flights! Imagine finding out you could have flown to Paris for just $99 if only you'd known about the deal! 😱 That’s where Daily Drop Pro comes in to save the day. I love Daily Drop Pro (formerly FareDrop), and I've...
Happy Thursday! I hope everyone is enjoying fall (or spring, depending on where you are in the world). While it may seem early to think about it, I wanted to talk about Christmas! Christmas is my favorite holiday, and one of my favorite things to do during the holiday season is go to Christmas markets. Christmas markets originated in Europe in the 13th century in the German-speaking region (likely Germany or Austria). They are still a beloved holiday tradition today, and you can find them all...
At Oracle Park in SF, home of the Giants Happy Thursday! I'm back home from my week in San Francisco and... Surprisingly, I like the city a little more than I did the last time I visited! I got to explore some local spots, catch a few baseball games (RIP Oakland A's), and enjoy great food. I still dislike the weather in SF, but I definitely like the city more than I did when I first visited. Now that I'm home for nearly a month, I'm working on finalizing my membership for travel content...
