Grandfather Mountain – Hiking and More

Grandfather Mountain. While it may not be the tallest mountain in North Carolina (Mount Mitchell holds that title), it is certainly one of the most beautiful. And this hike is NOT for the faint of heart. But Grandfather Mountain is also so much more than hiking! With a nature museum, a wildlife center, and not …

  • New blog post!!! (Link in bio)
This is a superrr late post, but the week of Thanksgiving @realbrandosaur and I got the incredible experience of spending the afternoon with the birds of Falconeria Zen, here in Vicenza, Italy! It was amazing and such a breath of fresh air to interact with these animals and get close to nature! (Which is even more important for all of us dealing with travel restrictions/quarantine/isolation).  What's one of your favorite animal experiences?

  • Despite the roller coaster of this year, I have a lot to be thankful for.  The biggest one being my incredible husband. He's my rock, and the best thing that's ever happened to me. I'm so eternally grateful that we found each other. 
I'm thankful we live in one of the most beautiful countries in the world and will get to explore Europe together (hopefully soon!) πŸ₯°
@realbrandosaur thank you for all that you do for us❀  Happy Thanksgiving! What are you thankful for this year? πŸ¦ƒπŸ—

  • So glad to finally be back home in Italy and seeing some fall colors!🍁  And in my own yard at that! Thanks to my amazing husband @realbrandosaur who did all the house hunting, all the paperwork, moved us into the house, and so much more. All on his own while I was deployed! I don't know what I'd do without  this amazing man in my lifeπŸ₯°β€
