Favorite Travel Memory

In 2023, I visited Belize and was absolutely stunned by just how beautiful it is. From the beaches to the rainforest, there were so many things to discover. We stayed at a local AirBnB and spent the evenings chatting with the host, learning about Belizean culture and history—and trying local produce right from his farm!

Favorite Travel Memory

My favorite travel memories are from my childhood. My family vacationed at Black Butte Ranch Resort in Oregon every summer for as long as I can remember. It’s where I learned how to ride a bike and get lost in adventure with my siblings. Every time I smell a pine tree, those memories come flooding back.

Favorite Travel Memory

Australia is my favorite place — fittingly, the name “Kylie” is an Indigenous word for 'boomerang!”  On my last trip, a random Substack message to my favorite winemaker/writer led to an intimate afternoon at her Adelaide Hills vineyard; we walked the vines, cooked lunch in her kitchen and sipped natural wine right from the source.

Favorite Travel Memory

While on my first trip to Denver, I thought it would be a great idea to go take a drive through the Rockies. However, we got deeply lost in the middle of the mountains and with more snow than I even thought was possible. We ended up getting stuck in a ditch and a group of Jeeps (with no air in their tire mind you) had to rescue us. Luckily, we lived to tell the tale.

An explorer by nature, find him hiking Red Rocks and paddleboarding Bear Creek Lake on the weekends. Evenings? They're for unwinding with videogames, homemade food and a Gatorade.

Favorite Travel Memory

My favorite travel memory has to be backpacking through Europe for a couple of months. This was my biggest solo trip, where I got to go through Spain, Germany, Italy, Austria and Italy. I met so many people and ate so much good food, but most importantly learned how big the world can be outside of the U.S.

One of my favorite travel memories is experiencing the breathtaking beauty of a wildlife safari on New Zealand’s West Coast. We traveled to Muriwai Beach to witness thousands of gannets gathering at sunset. The scene was unforgettable. In that moment, it felt as if the world had opened up—nothing else mattered.

Favorite Travel Memory

I was chaperoning high-school musicians on a European music tour. Our first night in Switzerland, I stopped by one of the girls’ rooms. My knock on the door was met enthusiastically by a girl declaring their room had a “washing machine” in it and insisted I come see it. I discovered they were “washing” their clothes in the bidet! What could I say? I suggested they keep it a secret or else they would have to do everyone’s laundry on the trip.
