I found a way to experience Florence without the crowds!

Thank you @villalamassaofficial for arranging a private boat tour with @florencetown_townsofitaly down the Arno River. The Ponte Vecchio looked so pretty during the golden hour.

It turns out the focaccia I’ve been making for all of these years isn’t actually the best. The best can by found at @villalamassaofficial, my new favorite hotel in Tuscany on the banks of the Arno River, just outside of Florence.

Lucky for me, I took a cooking class at the hotel where we learned how to make this traditional Italian oven baked bread. Delizioso!

If you love Florence but don’t want to stay in the city, @villalamassaofficial is the perfect place for you. This gorgeous @leadinghotelsoftheworld property sits on the banks of the Arno river, just 15 minutes away from Florence. It gives you a city fix while staying in the Tuscan countryside. The hotel even provides a complimentary shuttle to the Ponte Vecchio.

Checking out the newest hotel in my home town. @blindtigerburlington just opened in May and is already attracting guests from all over who appreciate art and sustainability, and who want to embrace Burlington’s culture and local vibe. Furnished with an eclectic mix of mid century modern pieces, antiques and bold artwork, you feel like you are staying in at a friend’s house rather than hotel. They want you to feel at home. I certainly do.

Blind Tiger is a great addition to the growing list of cool places to stay in Burlington.

It is going to be hard to leave this place.

For 150 years @mohonkmountainhouse has been inviting its guests to go outdoors and embrace the power of nature and healing and encourage you to truly be in the moment. It is so incredibly peaceful here because nature surrounds you no matter where you are on the property

It almost felt like a guilty pleasure to take so much time for myself and it shouldn’t be. I’m making a promise to do it more often.

The majestic @mohonkmountainhouse is the perfect place to relax, rejuvenate and focus on your well-being. Everything is incredibly peaceful.

If you crave activities, they have that too. There are 85 miles of hiking trails, biking, golf, boating, yoga and more. Plus an incredible spa.

Our river cruise has come to an end In Budapest.

I loved views of the European countryside from the top deck of the @riversidecruises MS Mozart, but you have to swipe right to see just how glamorous she is on the inside too because as far as river cruise ship go, she is a stunner. Totally luxurious with high-end decor and finishes throughout the ship.

The top deck is one of the best spots on @riversidecruises Mozart. It is the perfect spot to hang out and read as we spend the day cruising to the Iron Gates, a spectacular gorge on the Danube River.

The Mozart is double the width of regular river cruises. Not only is there a ton of space, there is a bar, a grill, and big screen TV. The furnishings are the absolutely nicest I have ever seen on a river cruise and are super comfortable too.

This is the look of career satisfaction. It's amazing to wake up every day and feel so excited about what I do. There's nothing like exploring new places and getting to share my experiences with others. Sometimes it's tough to deal with pressure of tight deadlines, unpredictable income, constantly packing and being on the move, but it's totally worth it.

Hopefully, my work inspires you to get out there and see the world for yourself.

Happy Earth Day! I can’t think of a more beautiful place to spend it. Thank you @scenic.eclipse for scouting out this beautiful cove for paddle boarding, snorkeling and kayaking.

My first helicopter ride! Thank you @scenic.eclipse for providing such an amazing excursion opportunity! I was in full discovery mode as we soared over the islands in the Sea of Cortez.

Our pilot Spencer was great. It was smooth flying from take off to landing.

It is always important to keep your sense of wonder when cruising the Sea of Cortez with @scenic.eclipse

If you ask the crew ‘What are we doing tomorrow?’ You will often hear ‘We’ll see!’

Today we hiked dry river beds looking for gigantic cactus (and avoiding the snakes and spider). Back on the beach we spotted sea lions playing in the ocean.

This week I am in full explorer mode. I’m sailing in the Sea of Cortez on the @scenic.eclipse, the world’s first discovery yacht. We have a fluid schedule and itinerary. Each day the weather, wind and marine life dictate where the captain will take us.

Take a look at the stunning @anantarapalazzonaiadi! Its ideal location in the heart of the city puts some of Rome’s most famous landmarks, like Trevi Fountain, the Borghese Gardens, and the Spanish Steps, within walking distance of their the front door. With exquisite restaurants, a spa and a magnificent rooftop bar, this glamourous hotel now tops my list of luxury places to stay in the iconic city of Rome.
