If there’s one place that deserves a spot on your fall travel bucket list, it’s New England. 🍁🍂

There’s a reason leaf peeping is practically a sport here! Winding country roads, covered bridges, ridiculously charming little towns, apple cider donuts, and fall colors that somehow look even better in person.
An autumn road trip through New England is one of those trips that absolutely lives up to the hype.
💌 Drop “FALL” in the comments and I’ll send you my complete New England fall road trip guide, including my favorite stops, scenic drives, and everything you need to plan your own trip!

There’s something so special about this season in the Cotswolds. Think charming little villages, cozy pubs, crisp morning walks, and scenery straight out of a storybook.

The part of my job that doesn’t usually make it to Instagram 💻

For every trip, travel guide and pretty photo you see, there’s a whole lot happening behind the scenes.
I’m constantly writing, researching, planning what’s next, running multiple businesses… and currently using AI to help build an entirely new website.
My AMD Ryzen AI-powered laptop has become the command center for all of it. I can have approximately 47 things happening at once (a conservative estimate), and it keeps up with the chaos.
Because ultimately, the goal is to spend a little less time behind the screen and a lot more time out experiencing the world. ✈️

Just a girl who wants both… luxury AND adventure. 🏔️✨
And Gardena Grödnerhof in Ortisei might be one of my favorite examples of exactly that!

We spent our days exploring some of the most iconic sights in the Dolomites, then came back to the comforts of an incredible five-star hotel. Even traveling with a four-year-old, getting out and exploring felt surprisingly effortless.
A few things that made our stay so special:
📍 THE LOCATION: Right in the heart of Ortisei, a charming, walkable mountain town with easy access to Seceda, Alpe di Siusi, and some of the Dolomites’ most beautiful scenery.
🛏️ THE ROOMS: We stayed in the Chalet Seceda Suite, complete with a huge balcony, mountain views, a fireplace, and even our own private sauna!
🧸 FOR THE KIDS: A fantastic kids club, kid-sized robes and slippers, play areas, and thoughtful little details that make traveling as a family so much easier.
🧖🏼♀️ THE WELLNESS: A beautiful spa with an indoor pool, outdoor whirlpool, saunas, and plenty of ways to relax after a day in the mountains.
🍝 THE FOOD: Two restaurants, including Michelin-starred Anna Stuben, and an incredible breakfast spread (complete with a juicing room).
What made this hotel so special was how accessible the adventure felt. We could have these huge days exploring the mountains and come back to somewhere so comfortable, with incredible food, a beautiful spa, and everything we needed to relax.
It was the perfect way to end our time in the Dolomites!
