Travel style

I come from the age before GPS (can you imagine?!) and so I learned to travel off the beaten path. Finding my adventures along the way, sometimes with a map and sometimes not. I love the mountains, and also the beach. Fine dining, and the best BBQ stand around. My husband is a chef and I used to be, so finding good food is always a must. My absolute favorite thing to do when I travel, is finding the random hidden gems. Things that will really make my journey memorable forever. That's what I look for.

A Weekend in Lake George

Lake George has been our weekend escape for many years. With much less hustle and bustle, it's where my husband and I go when we need some peace and quiet. It has a little bit of everything you need...

Guide

One Week on Mount Desert Island

Mount Desert Island, Bar Harbor, is my heaven on Earth. I brought my son there for every vacation. We hiked in the mountains, swam in the ocean, and made Bar Harbor a home away from home.
