Ok so I did a thing
Hello Reader,
Ok, so I did a thing and I'm kinda grinning from ear to ear over here. The TWI Travel Planning Virtual Summit link is live! I'm so happy to say that I was blessed to collaborate with 12 awesome travelers who taught me at least one new thing (yeah right, more like 10 new things!) with each conversation I had.
And I put it all together, stuffed the bag with crepe paper, and slapped a bow on top so I could share it with you! Happy Ho Ho!!
I truly believe that we are all better together and this is me living that truth in the world of travel and putting it out there for us all to benefit from.

After moving so much as a kid, always a new place, always the new girl, and always a source of extreme discomfort, discovering I wasn't...
