After a peaceful morning at the National Shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton, I continued just 20 minutes north to Destination Gettysburg.

Beyond its rich Civil War history, Gettysburg is a destination worth exploring for its impressive monuments, scenic landscapes, and charming downtown filled with local shops and historic restaurants. I enjoyed my favorite French dip sandwich at the Farnsworth House Inn, located next to several ice cream shops.

Whether you're visiting for the history, the architecture, or simply a weekend road trip, Gettysburg makes an easy and memorable stop.

Some places don't ask you to do anything except slow down.

Just beyond Visit Frederick - Maryland and a short drive from Destination Gettysburg, the National Shrine of St. Elizabeth Ann Seton and the nearby Grotto of Our Lady of Lourdes offer a peaceful retreat surrounded by gardens, wooded paths, and sweeping views of the countryside in Maryland.

Whether you're visiting for the history, the faith, or simply a moment of quiet, it's a beautiful reminder that some of the most memorable stops are the ones that leave you feeling refreshed.

I’ve traveled across continents in search of wellness in recent months, from spas in Guatemala to the therapeutic rhythm of surfing in El Salvador. But today was a reminder that some of the best experiences have been in my own backyard.

After over a decade of living in Howard County, I finally rented a kayak at Centennial Park, and I can’t believe it took me this long.

Whether you’re looking to unplug, spend time in nature, or just slow down for an hour, this is one of those places that makes you appreciate where you live. 💙

Sometimes it’s all someone can do to cross a puddle for you.

On other days, it’s the people who cross an ocean who create community, friendship, and a sense of belonging.

Just don’t forget to make sure you’re both traveling in the same direction. 🌊

Sometimes it’s the smallest moments that stay with me when I travel.

The way someone carries water. The rhythm of a town square as people gather. Freshly harvested bananas in the back of a truck. Or a striking new modern library standing in what was once known as the most dangerous city in the world.

It’s these ordinary and unexpected moments that often tell the deeper story of a place. They reveal resilience, change, and the everyday lives of the people who call it home.

What’s one unexpected moment from your travels that changed the way you saw a place? 🌎✨

🍸🦪 Sip & Shuck Thursdays are happening tonight at The Collective Offshore! Come check out the brand-new raw bar and seafood tower offerings. I had the pleasure of getting a sneak peek (and photographing these beauties), and they are not to be missed.

Then head over to The Collective Encore for a live performance from Nashville’s own Jimmy Charles 🎶. Great food, craft cocktails, and live music make this a night well worth the trip to Columbia! 🍸🎤
