We all have a favorite restaurant. Favorite restaurants can be places of refuge and connection - nourishment for both the body and soul. While I have many favorite restaurants around the world, I’m eager to tell you about a wonderful new place I’ve discovered recently that both warms my heart, promotes self-care, and has amazing, inventive food. While I hesitate a bit to let everyone in on the secret, this place is seriously too incredible not to share.

In October 2024, I went to Albuquerque, New Mexico and crossed an item off my bucket list by attending the International Balloon Fiesta. I spent a few extra days in the Albuquerque area and took a side trip to Santa Fe, which was about an hour away from the AirBnb I was staying in. Santa Fe was exceptional and the tour I booked through Airbnb Experiences was the “icing on the cake,” so to speak. Tour Santa Fe with me in this blog post!

When you go to Seattle, you go to the iconic Space Needle! It’s almost a given! But did you know that the experience has been upgraded in the last few years? Let me show you more!

DC has some fantastic restaurants! When I travel. part of the fun is trying new restaurants or local foods. I enjoy trying new foods or the same old, same old prepared differently.
