Welcome to another episode of my podcast, Plan, Pack and Recap. Today I am starting a new series where I chat about travel with some of my favorite people in my life who I love seeing their adventures whether it’s local or not, I’m so glad you’re here.

Today's episode is about talking with my best friend, Mel and we talked about how she loves to spend time with her husband especially when it involves Christmas lights, chocolates and indulging in those fun Starbucks seasonal drinks but also she loves to see all the whimsical decor in Winter Garden and their huge Christmas tree. We also discovered after years of friendship that we moved here the same year, and there’s so many different things to explore here in Florida, she shared a (new to me) app called All Trails, and some of the many nature inspired activities. St Augustine has become one of her favorite local spots. Lastly, she also shared some good tips for all first time visitors!
