Scenes from Middle Earth 🌍
New Zealand is opening its borders again at the end of July and I’m already so tempted to book the first cheap flight I find. Looking back through these photos fills me with equal parts gratitude that we got to spend almost 4 weeks road tripping the country in 2019 and a longing to go back because we didn’t even scratch the surface of how many adventures there are to discover there. 
Is NZ on your bucket list? 
If you have any questions about logistics of traveling NZ/getting around/itineraries, leave them in the comments! I’m always happy to talk all things NZ 😍

WHAT DO I DO FOR WORK? 
A question I get all the time is what I do for work. I don’t talk about it much, but content creation is, in fact, not my full time job (yet 😜). I actually work a full time 9-5 office job in pharmaceuticals. 
During the week, I spend the days in the office and the evenings catching up on emails, pitching to brands, and doing keyword research. Then I use the weekends and carefully planned PTO for creative projects, traveling, and local adventures.
If balancing a full time job with a side hustle has taught me anything, it’s how to stay organized and use my time very wisely. Often times, that means taking my work with me when I travel. That way, if I have some down time, I can get some work done, stay on track, and meet deadlines from the road. 
If you also take your work with you on the go, my biggest piece of advice is to make sure you have all the gear you need to do your job effectively. Don't try to skimp on this stuff - it will only make your job harder in the long run. 
One piece of gear I never travel without is the @griffintech Universal USB-C Docking Station (ad). 
This tiny docking station has four USB-A ports, a HDMI port, USB-C port capable of delivering up to 85 watts of output power, LAN Ethernet and auxiliary ports. It allows me to quickly connect multiple monitors and devices, which drastically expands my computer’s capabilities and makes my workflow super efficient no matter where I’m working from 🤓

Is this the perfect mountain hideaway? You tell me.
Swipe for a collection of my favorite photos from our cozy stay at @themountainterrace in the Catskill Mountains 🥰🌿
We spent three perfect days nestled among the trees, sipping coffee from the wrap around porch, and watching wildlife frolic outside the windows. I’m officially adding this to my list of the best cabins in the northeast. 
What do you think?
———- 
🗓 PS: there are only a few dates left to book in June, which are the only dates left for the rest of the summer. You can book your stay by visiting @themountainterrace on Airbnb

Unpopular opinion: While there is so much magic in venturing off the beaten path, popular places are usually popular for a reason.
And Cathedral rock is one of those places. 
Other popular places worth the hype are:
• The Blue Lagoon, Iceland 
• Kyoto, Japan
• The Grand Canyon
• Angels Landing in Zion NP
What’s a touristy location you think is totally worth the hype?

Please enjoy my first ever collection of photos shot on (really old) iPhones 😅📱 
These are some of my favorite photos from around the world captured with my iPhone 6 and 7 before I was forced to upgrade to the iPhone 12 last year 😂
One of my FAQs is what type of camera I use. In my opinion, it doesn’t matter what kind of camera you have because your iPhone can work just fine. Just get out there and start!

Would you spend the night in a shipping container in the woods?!
(Ad) For this cozy, off-grid stay, I packed @Bite toothpaste, mouthwash bits, and all natural deodorant.
Did you know: Every year, over 1 BILLION toothpaste tubes and 15 MILLION pounds of Deodorant packaging end up in our landfills and oceans?
For this reason, Bite products have become a staple in both my travel and at-home personal care routines over the last year. Their products are vegan, cruelty-free, and free of palm oil and plastic, which make it so easy to live a more sustainable lifestyle 🌱

What’s something that has helped you evolve?
(Ad) When @1moreglobal asked me to share something that encouraged me to evolve, I immediately thought of traveling - and how it has that wild, terrifying, amazing ability to strip away all familiarity, and make room for personal growth and evolution.
Personally, travel has been the best investment I’ve ever made in myself. By experiencing new cultures, new adventures, and new ways of thinking, I’ve evolved to be a more curious, open-minded, empathetic, and fearless version of myself. And I can never get enough.
This personal transformation is what drives me to chase an authentic connection to the world around me - and encourage others to do the same.
This month, 1MORE will launch their 1MORE EVO earbuds, which are designed to accompany you on wherever your journey takes you. With long lasting comfort, 28 hour battery life, and multiple noise cancelling modes, the 1MORE EVO earbuds can help you tune out the world, so you can focus on the things that make you the best possible version of yourself. #BornToEvolve

Mentally, I’m back on this sunset stroll along Diamond Beach ✨
Actually tho - I’ve been stalking those cheap flights to Iceland for the summer. There’s nothing quite like road tripping under the midnight sun, losing all sense of time, and foregoing all sleep because there’s just so much to see and never enough time 🥲
Out of all of the countries we’ve visited, Iceland is one of the only ones that keeps drawing us back.
Have you ever been to Iceland? If not, is it on your travel wishlist?
