Hey there Reader, This week has been a whirlwind of Seattle sunshine, planning my clients' trips, and the steady jackhammering of our utility workers fixing the water lines on our block 😆 But the coolest thing that happened this week? I was featured in a blog post on one of my partners' blogs! You can read "The Best Summer Vacation Ideas for Every Type of Traveler in 2026" right here from my colleagues at Flytographer!​ My contributions? I talked about Croatia for sun-seekers as well as Provence for families. I have clients going to Croatia for plenty of beach and boat time, and I love Provence for splitting your time between picturesque French countryside and upscale French Riviera destinations in one easy trip. And yes, there is still time for you procrastinators to go somewhere fun this summer :) This article would be a great place to narrow down your next destination! Just reply to this email if it sparks something - I love hearing from you Reader. -Carolyn PS. Flytographer is pretty cool - they connect you with local photographers to do photo shoots while you're traveling. I'm thinking about getting some photos with my husband in London! |

Hey Reader, I am super behind this week, so this will be quick. First, it's official: I'm a Certified Travel Associate (CTA). Peep my new email signature - I added my MPH too, because why not? I worked hard for that degree! (And it's how I was able to live in 9 countries!) Secondly, I wanted you to see this article about Four Seasons Preferred Partners if you haven't yet. I am a Four Seasons Preferred Partner, too, and if you are ever looking to book a Four Seasons property, read this first....
Hey Reader, I’ve been at this travel thing for a while. But despite visiting dozens of countries, I'd like to remind you that I was a newbie once, too. And by newbie, I mean it. The first time I traveled to Africa, I felt so confident, but I was quickly humbled. I couldn't take local currency out of the bank, so I ended up trading my dollars with some guy literally in an alleyway. My first night, I ordered soup that was so spicy, tears were running down my face. And somehow, the next day I...
I'm so happy you opened this email Reader. Because it's the last day of July, and I'm doing a really quick flash sale. Like...really quick.

The world of cruising is changing fast - forget mega-ships, icky buffets, and...
