🎻🤠When one of your dear friends offers to drive you to Denver to go with her to the Colorado Fiddling Championships AND it takes place at the National Western Stock Show-what do you say?! Well, I said heck yes and kicked off the New Year with a last minute adventure and my heart couldn't have been happier. ⁠
⁠
💖There's no better way to catch up with a friend than during a long road trip! 🎵Even though I know nothing about fiddling I do love live music and it was such a special experience to see some amazing performers. 🎶AND as an extra bonus our hotel room was host to some really fun nightly jam sessions! 🦙Also I've only ever been to the Fort Worth Stock Show and Rodeo and I really enjoyed checking out the National Western Stock Show and hanging out with the cutie llamas. ⁠
⁠
🛫We road tripped there and I flew back on Frontier. In order to take advantage of the cheap flight, I put all my packing light principles into practice to avoid any additional fees other than the carry-on fee. 🤠 I even managed to pack my vintage Stetson cowboy hat!

Road trippin’ with one of my girlfriends from Fort Worth to Denver! Ended the long drive with a delicious Chai in the cozy and charming Cherry Bean coffee shop in the Sunnyside neighborhood in Denver.

Reminiscing about a magical holiday season in Lisbon, Portugal a few years ago. I loved the outdoor Holiday Market in Lisbon and the abundant light displays everywhere! There were so many reasons to love Lisbon and I truly can’t wait to go back! Visit the blog for #travelcapsule info and my Lisbon mini-city guide.

💫 Wandering around the endless maze that is Round Top Texas on a hot and dusty Saturday with some friends I was introduced to @denveradotexas, a shop owner, musician, self described Funky Monk and the Deacon of Disco Alley. Upon introductions he asked us to pick a card from a stack in his hand and we all pulled a card with a quote that had an inspirational quote or truth and then just immediately opened a conversation with each other. His spirit and stories and space were exemplary of the fiercely creative and joyful spirit that I found throughout my first visit to Round Top. It’s this energy that will undoubtedly draw me back there again. ⁠
⁠
👯 One of my friends told me about the Texas Prom party they have there which sounds like loads of fun! When I searched for more details I found this quote by Denver, “Disco Alley isn't just a dance party, it’s a prayer party, it’s a place to be revived, it's a celebration of life! Every day my advice to myself and to whoever is reading this is to stop, slow down, take a pause, look in awe, enjoy the light show, and let His light brighten your alleyway. As always, keep it funky ... the journey continues.” ⁠
⁠
Chew on those wisdom nuggets and cheers to this funky journey! ⁠

I hope your heart is full of gratitude on this Thanksgiving day! The sacred heart with wings found all over San Miguel de Allende really resonated with me on our trip there. It embodied the joy, love and gratitude I felt being able to travel again. This symbol is used throughout Mexican folk art and the fact that they are sometimes covered in “milagros” make them even more meaningful. Milagros are small tin charms that can represent a miracle, healing, protection and luck depending on a persons intention. I brought home several pieces as a reminder of our visit but also a reminder that the path to love and joy is through gratitude. ⁣

I’ve finally taken my first plane trip post-covid and dang I didn’t realize how much I’ve missed traveling! I’m still processing my images, videos and memories of my trip to San Miguel de Allende. There were so many unexpected delights throughout the trip and I can’t wait to share more.

One of the biggest revelations for me is that I’m no longer #teambackpack when it comes to carry-on travel. I decided to take a carry-on rolling suitcase instead of my trusty backpack because I’ve been having back issues. And I don’t know that I can go back to the backpack life. While I love my 40 liter bag even though I’m able to keep it under or around 20 pounds I was much more comfortable with my new wheels so to speak. Plus, going from 41 liter capacity to 53 feels pretty luxurious when you are used to minimal packing. Stay tuned for more posts about what I packed, saw and experienced.

🌞Summer is officially over! It’s been a fun one full of pool time, live music and art! We took a relaxing trip to Austin and hung out at McKinney Falls and Barton Creek and have been exploring nearby Dallas on day trips and date nights! Bring on Fall!
