Introducing my daughter, Elle. She arrived just three weeks ago and couldn’t be any sweeter 💛

Like her brother (who adores her,) her name means “light” or “sun ray.” Together they are the shining lights of my life. My love for you knows no bounds☀️

The only thing sweeter than summer days abroad wit

The only thing sweeter than summer days abroad with my little family is carrying our daughter along for the trip 💛 I’m elated to share we’ll be a family of four come November!

You asked, I answered 🇫🇷🤍 Five Favorites

You asked, I answered 🇫🇷🤍 Five Favorites in Provence, where life is just a little bit lovelier. Just published on @substackinc (link is in my bio.)

In this edition, I focus (shockingly) not on where to eat or what to see but— but rather, which villages to consider during your stay. One of the things I love about a relaxed visit to Provence is that it’s more about slowing down and enjoying the little things than ticking anything off a list.

Factoring in a little one has both changed and reinforced how I travel. For so long accommodations have been “just a place to sleep” for me, so I could prioritize my time and money elsewhere.

Now, whether it’s nap schedules or simply the ability for my husband and I to relax longer on a given afternoon, it’s great to be able to experience a destination right from the front step (or even better, from bed.) 🌄

What’s stayed the same, of course, is that a change of place and pace is incredibly restorative and energizing — and you don’t have to go far to get that.

Thank you to @innabovetide for the perfect weekend stay right on the bay. It was just what our family needed 🤍 #parttimetraveler #sausalito #besthotels

Thinking back to my last trip before taking my next one (with baby!) and wishing I could transport here for a cornetto and cappuccino ☕️

Meanwhile, please send any and all tips for traveling with a five-month-old. (Also, send coffee. All the coffee.)
