“When ____, I am happy.”
It sounds like a simple prompt, but sitting in a small circle at the Art of Living Retreat in Boone, N.C., the answers carried weight. _“When I accomplish something hard.” _“When I wake up with absolutely nothing to do.”_ _“When I am surrounded by people I love.”__

I've lived in Sonoma, CA for nearly a decade now and I'm just a bike ride away from most of the wineries in town. You can’t help but become immersed in the culture of wine here. And it's more than just the wine — though Pinot Noir, Chardonnay, and Cabernet definitely reign here — it’s the entire winery experience. Summer is especially magical, with live music, incredible food events, and…
My mom and I live on opposite coasts, but we've made it a tradition to take a mother-daughter trip almost every year — exploring places like Maine, Spain, Paris, Charleston, and soon Mackinac Island, MI. Now that my daughter is in her tween era, it feels like the perfect time to carry on this tradition with her.

As a design enthusiast, my home stays need to feel like, well, home—just more inspired and elevated. Think less cookie-cutter rentals, more creative and inviting spaces that feel like an…
If your ideal getaway involves dragons, dagger-wielding heroines, brooding antiheroes, and a castle perched somewhere ridiculously dramatic, consider this your sign. From Gothic monasteries in Italy's Dolomites to Highland estates in Scotland, these real-life destinations feel ripped straight from the pages of your favorite romantasy books. And yes — you can actually stay in them. Planning a…
Tripadvisor unveiled its first Travelers’ Choice Awards category for 2026: Best of the Best Destinations, highlighting the spots that earned the highest ratings and most glowing reviews from real travelers over the past year. But beyond the rankings themselves, the list serves as a reminder that dream destinations don’t have to be experienced during their most chaotic months.

Every time I travel, I hunt for unique treasures for my home — Turkish towels from Istanbul (before they were everywhere in the U.S.), block-print curtains from India, even wrapping paper in Paris pretty enough to frame.
