Join me for SOME of the highlights from an epic ce Join me for SOME of the highlights from an epic celebration. For 40 years, @noteworthy.experiences has been providing excellent hospitality across the UK, and I was thrilled to be there to toast @noteworthynicola and the whole team. For this? They blew us all away!! Y'all, the Welsh guards do not play private parties, but for us, they did some anthems (🇺🇸+🇬🇧+🌈) for an incredible intro. Add in delicious Michelin-starred food from Starling Bistro, a cameo appearance from some adorable pooches to support @dogstrust, and a super fun band - it was certainly a night to remember. Thank you again for the invitation!!!! (And thanks to @giftedtravelnetwork for the original introduction to such a sterling partner!)
You may have wandered SoHo and seen a few little p You may have wandered SoHo and seen a few little plaques on your own, but I got to hear ALL the stories about the music scene in London. Where John met Yoko. Where Paul met Linda. Where the Sex Pistols lived. Where Rock & Roll started in London. Where the Stones first played. Where Ella Fitzgerald sang (and you can still catch good live Jazz about every night of the week). Where Led Zeppelin used to play. Where all of the 90's bands used to play. Where Hendrix first played. Tin Pan Alley where they all recorded. Album Cover shoot locations. The works. And of course, a whole mews (back alley) is now dedicated to David Bowie. If you are a music fan at all, you MUST take a Rock & Roll history tour, and honestly, you should do it with @noteworthy.experiences who have the BEST guides. Such a great way to spend a beautiful morning!! ... ... #findthatjenesaisquoi #gtnonlocation #gtnadvisor #luxurytraveladvisor #virtuosotravel

When I first saw these "look back at #2016" posts, When I first saw these "look back at #2016" posts, I thought it was a bit odd, but then I did it and was really surprised! That was a pivotal year for me, and I didn't even realize it! It started off skiing in Tahoe, like normal, then featured my second (and last) trip to Coachella. I went to a work event at Sandals (also probably my first and last visit to one of those), and learned how NOT to island hop (but St. Barth's was worth it!). I left San Francisco that spring to move back home to NC, got certified with my faves at Tauck in New Orleans, and then spent what seems like a month in Europe! First I toured northern Italy with my Mom and Aunt (her last big trip), explored Slovenia, spent July 4th in Croatia with the Danons, and then had my mind blown by Plitvice Lakes. I went to the beach with family and friends, then another work event in the DR where I tried trapeze (and survived, barely), and decided to re-brand my business (still going strong!). Like this past year, I had a great girl's weekend with my college friends, but in Chicago, and also visited Austin (for the first time) for an ill-fated election party (the sentiment, sadly, remains the same even today). That winter I skied the Alps for the first time, and then bought a house!! (Literally had the closing call from my ski lodge, which is still insane.) To round off an excellent year, I spent NYE with the Edgerton family in Singapore (who I got to see in London this past year!). Whew! For as much changed for me that year, I love the things that have stayed the same - and the way other things have grown and changed. Look back 10 years: it's fun!!
