I'm off again... My Q2 travel updates ✈️
|
Happy Thursday! For today, I wanted to share some of my upcoming trips with all of you. I share these for a few reasons....
After this email, I have a TON of helpful info coming on how to plan amazing trips, including flights, accommodations, trip essentials, and more! But first, here are my travel plans for the next couple of months:
That gets me through the first part of the year, before I come home to enjoy summertime in Chicago/the US and plan a just as fun second half of the year. As always, I would LOVE any recommendations anyone has on these places, especially tips for first-time visitors, as I have not been to any of these places! And, of course, I'll be sharing everything on social media (follow me on Instagram and Facebook) and then blogging and uploading YouTube videos when I get home. You can reply to this email if you want to chat, or want to share travel tips. My inbox is always open if you have questions or need help brainstorming for an upcoming trip. As always, you can follow along with my current travels on Instagram and Facebook, or reply to this email if you want to chat!

YES, 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. Personally, 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. |

At TBEX North America 2025 in Quebec City Happy Thursday! I spent last week exploring a couple cities in Canada, and it was such a great time. First, I was in Quebec City for a travel conference called TBEX where me and a bunch of other bloggers and travel creators learn, network, and most importantly, have some fun! Then I met my mom in Toronto and I absolutely fell in love with the city. It reminds me of Chicago in a way, but more compact. If you're ever in Toronto, don't miss out on the...
Kyoto, Japan Happy Thursday! I'm home from Japan, and if you noticed by my lack of an email last week... the jetlag took me out!

Until then, I wanted to talk about one thing I NEVER travel without: Travel Insurance One of the things I get asked about the most is travel insurance. Should you...
