Life is still beautiful after 40

—travel like it.

From Atlanta to charming Southern towns that feel like Europe (and some that are in Europe), I share slow getaways & joy-filled adventures for women who want more.

Travel Isn’t Something To Do To Check A Box.

It’s a Way to Celebrate Being Alive.

  • What I Share

    Here, I share places that feel special—where the setting matters, the energy is magical, and the moments are meant to be savored. Whether you’re traveling with your partner, best friend, or solo, you’ll find inspiration that blends charm, style, and substance.

    European & Southern Escapes
  • Places That Feel Like Europe

    Boutique Escapes, hidden towns, and Southern Spots that echo the charm of Italy, France, Czech Republic, or Portugal - without a 9 hour flight.

  • Style In Motion

    What to pack, how to wear it, and how to show up fully - wearing the dress or the hiking boots. Let’s be real - travel is the perfect excuse to feel beautiful (and it’s hard for us to not have an excuse!).

  • Beautiful Adventures

    From garden walks to snowmobiling, this is travel that’s full of play, passion, and helps you be present.

  • Who This Is For

    For Women in Midlife who still crave magic and want to dream again.

    For Couples read to savor, not settle.

    For Anyone who believes life is still wildly beautiful - and worth dressing up for.

A little of my story

I’m a cancer survivor, and that changed everything.

A few years ago, I walked through something that changed me forever: cancer. And while that part of my story isn’t front and center, it’s shaped how I travel, how I savor, and how I show up. It’s why I show up here.

I don’t believe in waiting for the perfect time anymore. I believe in celebrating life now. That’s why I created Well Traveled Gal - to help women find joy, beauty, and meaning in the way we move through the world. To remind them of the joy, beauty, and purpose they have inside themselves.
