It’s the 30th episode of That Greenwich Life and the first of 2025! I can’t believe how far we’ve come, and I’m so excited to kick off the year with a super fun special episode with tons of travel ideas as part of That Greenwich Life’s 5-part 2025 Glow-Up series this month.
     No New Year’s Resolutions here because – let’s be honest – who really keeps them? I know I don’t. Instead of only hitting the gym hardcore with the rest of the pack (ok…we can do that also), I’m focusing on five areas of our lives where we could all use just a little bit more self-care, attention and direction.
     This week in Part 1, I’m joined by my longtime friend and incredible NYC-based travel journalist, Juliet Izon, whose work has been featured in The New York Times, Travel + Leisure, The Wall Street Journal and more. Together – since you all know by now I’m a travel writer as well! - we’re sharing travel ideas and tips for every season and school break, whether you're dreaming of a spring getaway, summer escape, or a holiday trip to end the year. From Grenada to Morocco, Norway to San Diego, there’s something here for everyone, no matter your style or budget.
     What’s Inside:
          •        February Break Inspiration: Grenada’s serene Silver Sands Beach House and my upcoming trip to Beaches Turks & Caicos (with a magical stop at the Wizarding World of Harry Potter on the way back to Greenwich!).
          •        Spring Break Favorites: Morocco and Southern Spain for culture and adventure, or Mallorca for a quieter, off-season vibe.
          •        Summer Escapes: Norway’s fjords and culinary treasures, or a surprising pick—Vail, Colorado—perfect for hiking and llama treks.
          •        Holiday Travel Magic: Juliet shares her wintertime Lake Placid experience at Lake Placid Lodge, while I talk about the incredible Hotel del Coronado in San Diego.
