Fall in Love with Key West

17 Feb

This sultry island offers a lifestyle full of Caribbean charm…

Ah, Key West – just possibly the best place for doing nothing but relaxing, indulging in decadent seafood, taking advantage of the amazing water activities and enjoying the region’s beauty. I spent one glorious and laid-back afternoon {a few months ago} exploring this gorgeous place and have been daydreaming of my next visit. Just a stone’s throw from Cuba {90 miles}, this sultry island has inspired loyalty from many happy, content tourists and islanders, including me.

Fly into one of the many South Florida gateways, rent that convertible you’ve always dreamt about and steer your way down through the many mile markers to the place that gave laziness and key lime pie a good name. Ole!

p.s. Staying positive and upbeat during the most unfortunate {health} situation for a family member is so incredibly difficult. It’s important to tell the people you love how much you love them while they can hear you. Tell them, everyday.

Have a wonderful weekend amigos… x

Lake Tahoe

6 Jan

Only three hours away from Napa, Lake Tahoe beckons year round with stunning scenery and endless recreational opportunities. Despite the lack of snow it was still awesome to be out in the open, celebrating the New Year in Tahoe!

One of the highlights was hiking to Eagle Falls and stumbling into a frozen lake {If only we would have brought some ice skates!}. Check out the video & pictures below. Ole!

p.s. Seems like I’ve caught a bit of a bug. Ugh. Any quick remedies that will make my cold go away?

I hope you all have a restful and cheery weekend! x

Bienvenidos a Cancun! (Part One)

8 Jul

Just another day in paradise…

July couldn’t come soon enough!  Yesterday I jet-setted to the tropical beaches of Cancun with my BF and a group of friends.

We arrived in the early evening just in time to catch the most breathtaking sunset, followed by a celebratory birthday dinner & night swim in honor of one of my best friend’s birthday. We are here for 8 days – the first half of our vacation we’ll be attending our friend’s wedding {in Xcaret} and then the  rest of the trip we’ll be enjoying the exotic beaches of the Yucatan Peninsula.

I’ve only been here once before and I’m looking forward to swimming in the crystal clear {80 degree} ocean, exploring the Mayan ruins & eating delicious authentic Mexican cuisine.

I can’t wait to share more of my experiences {and pictures} next week! In the meantime, here is a sneak peak of our first day in Mexico…

p.s. Anyone have suggestions for things that we shouldn’t miss? Ole!

{Hello paradise!}

{Enjoying a refreshing margarita! Happy Birthday Cassandra! xoxo}
