Abroad in Your Inbox Vol. 29

IT’S A BIG DAY TODAY…

It’s Mama Linda’s bday!! My travel partner in crime and the queen of feeding stray cats around the world is one year older today and if you want to wish Linda a happy b-day yourself, you can head to this post right here!

This past week I’ve been a lil all over the place. I’m finalizing my work and travel schedule for the end of 2021 and I’m excited to be visiting some old and new spots here in the US. Linda and I are about to head out on a fall road trip at the end of the week and will be working with the tourism board of one of our FAVORITE destinations to peep some leaves.

Will share where we’re headed on IG this week and of course share ALL the recs with the homies.

After that trip, I’ll be making the pilgrimage back to Palm Springs to host the BNP Paribas Open in October (YAY!!!) and spend some time on my travel series with Visit GPS and catch up with all my old pals. I’ve got a few more little work trips here and there for the rest of the year but will primarily be spending the rest of the year at home working on our mom-daughter group trips & show.

IDK if you feel this way but where the heck did the year go?!

  1. ROADTRIPPERS.COM - I shared this website in my Travel Tip Tuesday post last week (peep my highlights) but this is a fantastic resource for planning any road trip, especially if you want to discover cool spots along your journey. I’ve been using this to plan our upcoming trip and just discovered there’s this beautiful castle along our drive that I would have NEVER known about had I not used this site.

  2. LEARNING HOW TO READ TAROT CARDS - So, I’ve decided I need more hobbies that have ABSOLUTELY nothing to do with work or travel cause like #worklifebalance. I’ve always LOVED having my tarot cards read and have kinda dabbled with learning in the past. But the other day I came across this incredibly beautiful set of cards and decided to fully commit to learning. PS - I was nervous that I shouldn’t have bought them for myself because apparently, that’s taboo but this article dispels that myth. Also here’s an article that tells you how to get started in case you’re interested too!

AN OLDIE BUT A GOODIE!

Friends, I swear I will have new YouTube videos from my summer travels out this week. Work has just been a bit cray cray and usually, the first thing to drop off is editing youtube videos. So until I get my act together I wanted to share some of my Chicago recs because as summer comes to a close we only have a few more weeks of nice weather to truly soak up the beauty of our city.

So here’s a little breakdown of some of my favorite neighborhoods in the city and what to do in each!!

PS make sure to check out my more in-depth Chicago neighborhood guides here.

HAPPY ENDING (AKA SOMETHING I FOUND FUNNY THIS WEEK)

A Harry Potter TikTok dance to WAP is what we all needed right now.
