All my life I dreamed of watching the Eiffel Tower sparkle, sitting outside of a French café, sipping on a latte, and enjoying a croissant. This year I was able to do just that. Of course, this was after the new show, Emily In Paris, came out on Netflix and made my dream of seeing Paris more […]
My latest trip to the Mexican Caribbean took me to the Costa Mujeres area. We were lucky enough to spend two weeks out there. Trust me when I say I took advantage of every minute I got to spend there. I spent so much time at the beach. Our group got to know the lovely vendors that […]
