Continue readingThe Ultimate Saint Barthélemy Bucket List!
For my bachelorette, I decided I wanted to visit three countries in the Caribbean and Saint Barthélemy (St. Barts) was one of those countries! All I had heard about Saint Barthélemy was that it was this beautiful, luxurious place where celebrities liked to vacation.
After researching, I learned that that’s exactly what it is! It’s a beautiful country in the Caribbean and is known for luxury travel and its beaches, restaurants and shops.
There are two main ways to visit: fly into St. Martin and take a ferry there (like I did) or fly into St. Martin and take a smaller plane in (the more expensive option).
I liked taking the ferry in because you get really great views of the ocean, the country and there’s so many yachts! Check out a few of my favorite photos from Saint Barthélemy and let me know if you’re inspired to visit!
Continue readingThe Ultimate Anguilla Bucket List!
For my bachelorette, I decided I wanted to visit three countries in the Caribbean and Anguilla was one of those countries! To be honest, I had never heard about it but after researching and visiting, it’s now one of my favorite places. It’s so beautiful and I highly recommend you add it to your travel bucket list!
Anguilla is a British Overseas Territory in the Eastern Caribbean, which comprises of a small main island and several offshore islets. Anguilla has some of the most beautiful turquoise waters and their beaches have some of the softest white sand I’ve ever seen!
There are two main ways to visit: fly into St. Martin and take a ferry there or book a boat tour from St. Martin (like I did). My friends and I booked two boat tours via Viator and both were so much fun! They were two different companies and I recommend them both.
Both crews were fantastic. On the first boat tour, I drifted away a bit (the current is strong!) and I was able to get picked up by one of the crew members. On the second boat tour, I got a ride to shore on the boat and I also dropped my hat into the ocean and the crew members dove and got it for me! Both boat tours come with snacks, lunch, and unlimited drinks! I highly recommend both tours as they takes you to the most beautiful turquoise waters where you can snorkel, swim, or even go to a beach in Anguilla. It’s a great value as there was plenty of food and drinks. Check out a few of my favorite photos from Anguilla and let me know if you’re inspired to visit!

I cannot believe that 2024 is almost over, it seriously just flew by. In 2017, I started a tradition of rounding up my favorite photos from each year however we had a slight hiatus in 2020 and 2021 but we came back in 2022!
Check out my favorite travel photos from 2017, 2018, 2019, 2022, and 2023.
This year, I was able to cross off three new countries in the Caribbean, visit 1 new state in the USA (Atlanta!), visit several new cities in states I’ve been to before and make several trips to the motherland.
Every year, I take some time to reflect on how that year went; and this year I will continue the tradition of rounding up one photo per trip to hopefully inspire you to travel a little more! Enjoy!
