You’ll Love Your Stay at Casa Emilia Mexico City As I frequently mention, I love Bed and Breakfasts. Why? Because they are the perfect union of a hotel experience and the feel of...

LET THE MUSIC PLAY 🎶

I didn’t consciously realize this until recently, but I LOVE visiting destinations where music is a central part of the culture or experience.

Music and the arts seem to be at the heart of Puerto Rican culture. I truly felt encapsulated in it the entire time I was at this hotel. Paintings, sculptures, statues (as you’ve seen) adorn the tables and walls at every turn.

Different musicians and singers perform nightly. Even if I couldn’t make it to the The Cannon Club, I could still hear the serenade by our balcony.

Do you play any instruments? I’ve played a few in my lifetime, but am most proficient at the piano 🎹

A portion of your accommodation fee is donated to a non profit organization: The Puerto Rico Charitable Trust for Education of Young Musicians

Swipe to the end to hear my one of my favorite things (when 🌧️ & 🎶collide).

Where I stay has become a big part of my travel experience ✨

It isn’t always for the same reasons. In this instance, I stayed in a building that’s almost 400 years old in the heart of Old San Juan. These are the instances where structures tell stories too…

Don’t historical places fascinate you? It’s like… I think about everyone who has stood on this balcony over hundreds of years.

Steinways (and talented players of), are strewn throughout the hotel, along with artwork painted by the owner, a woman who built the place from the ground up well over 60 years ago now.

Much more about this stay to come!

Surrounded by the beauty of color in Old San Juan 🇵🇷

One of my favorite things to do when discovering a new town or city is to simply get lost (but not tooo lost 🙃)in it on foot. 🗺️

Do you like to do this too? I love to meander and really take in all the sensorial aspects of being in a new place.

For many cities, we’ve taken free walking tours on our first day there. It’s such a great way to introduce yourself to a new destination. Sometimes, I’ll book private guides, depending on my agenda and schedule. Other times, we’ll just explore on our own.

Have you ever taken a free walking tour? Where do you usually find them?

WARM WATER, WARM AIR, NO CARES…

Anyone else wake up this morning wishing they were in the tropics? 🌊

To this day, St. Lucia is one of my FAVORITE islands in the world. 🌴 Have you been? It’s a special place.

If you could snap your fingers and be anywhere tropical right now, where would you be? ☀️

Think as far back as you can recall:

Remember when we were kids, and we were asked to draw a picture for, let’s say, our parents?

We dove in unabashedly, with our stick figure drawings, wild interpretations of things and joyfully ‘colored outside the lines.’

We didn’t worry if it would be “good enough” or what others would think of it, we just created things.

It’s interesting how we manage to go from that, to perfectionism, isn’t it?

A couple years ago, I heard someone say something to the effect of, “people become perfectionist because that’s what they needed to do to feel safe” 💡

It’s unsurprising that so many of us become this way. The reality IS, society REWARDS perfectionism. It’s so deeply embedded in our social norm that even those who are constantly saying how much they hate perfectionism are the first to reward it.

Society: “Be Yourself!”

Also society: “No, NOT like that!”

Society: “Don’t be afraid to try”

Also Society: Rushes in at lightning speed to criticize everything they possibly can about anyone who is attempting literally anything

It’s amazing how much we, as human beings, allow the opinions of people who hate themselves, penetrate our world.

So on this fine day, join me in reconnecting with that part of ourselves that freely does things in joy, without the burden of what someone with a chip on their shoulder will think.

Its the most liberating gift we can give ourselves, isn’t it? ✨

HAVE YOU STAYED IN A BED & BREAKFAST? 🍳

I’ve stayed in a myriad of accommodations over the years. From shared Air BnB’s & shared overnight train cars to ‘high end’ resorts and 5 star white glove luxury hotels.

If we’ve been connected for any length of time or you read my blog, then you know: my LOVE for Bed & Breakfasts is unwavering!

Where the comfort of home meets a luxury boutique hotel. The environment is more intimate, quiet and cozy! You wake up daily to a hot, home cooked breakfast. Your innkeepers are invested in you making the most of your visit, providing their insight as a resource.

📍Beaujolais Boutique B&B at Thea’s House is my home away from home in Banff National Park now.

The owners provide snow cleats, hiking poles and backpacks among other things, complimentary, if desired!

Bonus: they used to own a fine French restaurant in Banff for over 36 years, so get ready for a spectacular breakfast! 🍳

You can always book this stay in the future in my ‘Canada’ story highlights or on my site. Have you ever stayed in a Bed & Breakfast?

I DON’T SNOW BUNNY OFTEN ….

… but when I do, it’s always a blizzard of good times (ba-dum-ching!) 🌨️❄️

A $10 shuttle ride from downtown Banff to Lake Louise will deliver you to maximum winter wonderland surroundings.

By mere observation, I’ve deduced the array of activities you can partake in:

• Ice skate or attempt to ice skate ⛸️
• Saunter around in your winter best with a ($6) hot cocoa in hand ☕️
• indiscriminately pose for the ‘gram in front of a giant ice sculpture of a castle 🧊
• Snow shoe, sled, or take a carriage ride
• Gather everyone you’re with, go off in the distance & attempt to make an igloo
• Seek warmth, shelter and/or high tea in the Fairmont Château
• Ski or Snowboard 🏂
• Slip on patches of slick ice
• Take 600 photos in the spot I’m standing in until no one is in it 📷
• Tempt fate & jump as hard as you can on an exposed circle of ice surrounded by piles of snow
• Run into the forest to cast winter spells on your enemies
• Generally, have a blast

So what would YOU do while here? ☺️
