The Sweetest Escapes

Features on Lonely Planet and Life Lately!

It’s Sunday, my favorite day to relax and blog! I’ve had a busy month writing for Lonely Planet, leaving less time for the blog between my full-time job, personal life, and travels!

We went to Hawaii and celebrated our 5 year anniversary, retuning the Sheraton Maui where we got engaged then married, and have returned every year for our anniversary since! It was also the place where I thought to start a travel blog, 3 years later, here we are!

The Sweetest Escapes had it’s first anniversary last month, doing well for the first year! Thanks to all who follow our crazy adventures and sweet finds around the globe!

Ok, so, when we went to Monterey Bay for 4th of July this year and were driving up the coast, I found a few spots to stop along the way. When we returned and I started to map our trip with ice cream stops, I thought this would be a great pitch for another publication. I had enough stops to run from San Francisco to San Diego and couldn’t wait to get started. I pitched to Lonely Planet and was commissioned within a week to write my article and it was a paid gig!

I was pleased with the outcome, please visit Lonely Planet and read my Sights and Sweets Along the California Coast article.

Fall in love with Autumnal Flavors on Lonely Planet

I started to get emails from my favorite ice cream shops with all the different fall flavors they were featuring, and thought it might bode well for another Lonely Planet article! Fall in love with these Autumnal flavors on Lonely Planet!

Anyway, thanks for your support and hope you enjoy our posts!

Stay sweet,
