About
Atlanta-based mom of two who absolutely loves cooking, food and wine. Often found in the kitchen or on a beach with a margarita in hand.
Home airports
ATL is more than just an airport code, it's my gateway to adventure and exploration!
My travel style
Adventure is my middle name! I love luxury camping and hiking, but also enjoy cooking classes, wine tastings and museum visits. Whether I'm walking through a bustling market or relaxing on a turquoise beach, I always make time to meet locals and try their cuisine. While I have a soft spot for boutique hotels, I'm equally happy in a quaint farmhouse or other unique accommodations that offer a glimpse into a destination's culture.
