Guess What Kind of Traveler I Was This Weekend?


We took a spontaneous road trip to Asheville, North Carolina — and between the mountain views and the amazing food, I completely lost track of what day it was. That’s how you know it was a great trip. 😊

Somewhere along I-40, I started thinking about our weekly emails. I asked myself, “Am I really practicing what I preach?” And the answer was a big YES.

✅ We mapped our route from Indianapolis to Asheville.
✅ We explored the outdoors, surrounded by the stunning Blue Ridge Mountains.
✅ We tasted local flavors and connected with a resilient, welcoming community still recovering from Hurricane Helene.

As I reflected, it hit me: I was a Cultural Explorer with a side of Cultural Foodie this weekend. 💫

But NYC always felt... out of reach — too big, too busy, too expensive. It kept sliding down my travel wish list. That is, until we planned a road trip from...

Sunday was World Ocean Day. As I was thinking about all the places we've been - on or near the ocean - I felt a sense of peace flow through me. This year's theme is "Wonder: Sustaining what sustains us," shining a spotlight on that vast body of water that "inspires, connects and nurtures" us. The presence of AI has been growing in recent months and, I admit, while I haven't embraced it, I have explored it a bit. So yesterday I asked ChatGPT, "How does the ocean inspire, connect and nurture...

When you have a trip planned and it's getting close, do you get giddy with excitement? I do! And right now I'm knee-deep in planning mode, feeling all the feels. I'm making lists...
