Hi, it’s nice to meet you!
Hi, I’m Bev, an Illinois native who grew up across the Mighty Mississippi from St. Louis. As a child, my parents would pack my sister and me into the family van, which doubled as our “hotel” room at a campground, and head off on trips every year, creating many travel tales as we went. We visited the mountains, the desert, the beach, and even Graceland (no joke, I’ve been there more times than I can count. Can you say Elvis fan?)
I often traveled for work. These business trips took me to unexpected places, expanding my horizons in ways I never imagined. I always made sure to take some time for myself during these trips, seeking out experiences that nourished my soul. When the pandemic put a stop to my travel adventures, I really missed those days. Now that travel is back, I’ve decided to share my experiences and discoveries with you. This will include my favorite destinations, the unique and delightful hotels I find (my favorite part!), amazing food and drinks, as well as some travel tips. Can’t wait to share it all with you!
I share my travel stories with you because I absolutely love exploring new places. Telling my tales just makes me happy. I really hope it brings you joy too! And maybe even gives you some inspiration to create your own amazing travel stories. My main focus is hotels. I hope it motivates you to choosing a cool place to stay on your next adventure. I’m really looking forward to building a community, getting to know you!
Thanks for hanging out with me on this journey!
Beverly
Where I got my start
I am from Illinois and have lived near St. Louis all my life. As a child, I discovered my love for traveling, going on yearly trips with my family. I work as a digital printer, and this career has taken me all over of the country. It is providing me with valuable insights into different hotels—their pros and cons. I’ve decided to share this with you.
