Come along with me as I travel the United States, solo, with friends, or with family, relaxing, refreshing, refilling my soul and spirit, sipping bourbon and cocktails, learning about history, visiting natural wonders, and looking out for the coolest hotels out there.

Hi! I’m Bev. An Illinois native, growing up across the Mighty Mississippi from St. Louis.

As a child, every year, my parents would pack my sister and I into the family van (which doubled as our “hotel” room at a campground, my first coolest hotel experience!) and head off to multiple destinations. The mountains, the desert, the beach, Graceland (no joke, been there more times than I can count. Can you say Elvis Fan?).

My career often took me all over the country, and once or twice out of the country. These business trips took me to places I would never have imagined going, places I would never even have thought to go.

I have learned to take time for myself on these trips. Find something that would feed my soul wherever I was. After travel stopped during the pandemic, I have slowly getting back into traveling. Whether it’s places I love, a hotel I find that is just the right amount of quirky or pampering, the food or beverages to die for, or just a trick I use to get me where I’m going.

Why have I decided to share my tales with you? There are many reasons. My friends and colleagues ask me for travel ideas, help them plan, and ask me where to go, where to stay, how to do this, etc. But the most compelling reason is that it feels good. I love to travel, and telling my tales brings me happiness. Which I hope, in turn, brings you joy and inspires you to create your own Travel Tales. 

I’m looking forward to building a community, getting to know you, and sharing all my travel experiences with you.
