Summer Getaway

This summer vacation season looked a lot different. Both me and my bf were new to our jobs and I recently moved at the beginning of summer so traveling far wasn’t in the cards this year. At first i’m not going to lie I was devastated. The water and scenery in other countries is top tier!

I will honestly admit it I had one of the most peaceful trips to the FL panhandle beaches and it was just what I needed. It wasn’t over the top. It was relaxing. The food I ate was delicious. It rained so I was able to sleep in. I actually put this trip in my top 5.

Planning for summer of 25 is what gets me through the cold months. I enjoy planning mini vacays and my annual long vacay each year. So whats on your travel bucket list?
