Had to believe the craziness that’s happening in

Had to believe the craziness that’s happening in the world right now and not too long ago I was on a boat in the Dingle Peninsula of Ireland without a care in the world! Now-as of Monday- my office is officially remote until all of this COVID-19 blows over. 😱

As much I’m dying to book those insanely cheap flights - I know my health and everyone around me‘s health is more important. To get prepared- I’m going practicing social distancing, stocking up on food, catching up on binge-worthy Netflix shows, editing content, and of course lots of kitty snuggles from @lunafromhoboken!

One question I get asked all the time is where is

One question I get asked all the time is where is your favorite place you’ve ever traveled to. For me, that’s always super hard to answer because there’s a special place in my heart for every destination I’ve experienced. However, one place that has literally all most brought me to tears because of how beautiful it is was Tuscany. I was lucky enough to visit 3 medieval villages- Siena, San Gimignano and Monteriggioni. If you’re visiting Florence- I highly suggest taking a day trip to these most extraordinarily towns and indulging in local wine, cheese and gelato. 🍷🧀🍦

Most people who visit NYC usually try to find accommodation around the big tourist attractions which does makes sense...BUT one thing that I loved about staying at The James Nomad Hotel is that it’s away from the super crowded parts of the Manhattan! It’s much quieter and the NoMad area is such an adorable part of Manhattan. I fell in love with it! Right near the hotel, you’ll find lots of cute coffee shops, a plethora of fine dining restaurants, and some great fashion boutiques. The hotel is also still within walking distance to Times Square, Korea Town and much more. @jameshotels jameshotels, thanks again for hosting me for one of the most fabulous staycations! ❤️

If you haven’t already, check out wanderouskaren.com for my ultimate travel guide to a road trip across Ireland! Make sure to put the Dingle Peninsula/Slea Head Drive on your bucket list- it has the most epic scenery with lush green land, beautiful ocean views and magnificent cliffs 💚🇮🇪💚 It literally took my breath away!

Incase your interested in a purchasing a drone- This video was taken with my DJI Mavic Air :-) I highly recommend this particular drone for traveling because it’s very compact and super light weight!

Where was the last destination that took your breath away?!

Who knew that one of the most unique castles I’ve ever visited was a 2 hr drive from NYC?? This concrete palace (built in 1908) was home to the late Henry Mercer. With no architectural or design background, he actually designed this castle himself! 😱 He also wanted a home where he could show off his massive tiles and prints collections which you find throughout the palace! How cool is that?!?
————
If I could design my dream home, it would probably be an ultra modern industrial loft style or a quaint Italian style countryside home. What type of home would you design for yourself??

Also the @mercerandfonthill is included in the @visitphilly pass if you’re visiting Philly this year! 🙌

For me, walking off the beaten path has always been something I don’t shy away from. I lived abroad a whole semester in college, I moved to NYC at 25 years old with no job/no friends, AND I switched careers at 30 years old 😱 One thing I’ve learned about myself is that I’m always pushing myself to figure out what is best for me at every new phase of my life. I’m not gonna lie- my 30’s have been my toughest years yet, but life isn’t meant to always be easy, amiright? Having friends like @work.and.wander have made it so much more fun! 👯‍♀️

Seriously- what's better than breakfast in bed?!?

Seriously- what's better than breakfast in bed?!? One of my favorite things to do when staying at hotels is splurging on some delicious room service! Luckily, @jameshotels NoHo had an excellent selection of breakfast, lunch and dinner items!

Another plus of being a guest at the @jameshotels is their complimentary wine and cheese happy hour everyday from 5-6pm 🧀🍷

This weekend I definitely got some much needed R & R! However, looking back at these photos from my epic trip to Italy last year is giving me some major travel fever. This will be my first year of not traveling anywhere in a long time! 😱 But absence makes the heart grow fonder, right?

This photo was taken at the Boboli Gardens in Florence. It was built in the 16th Century for the famous Medici family. With breathtaking views of the city, beautiful sculptures and large fountains- this was one of the first examples of a formal Italian renaissance garden. This should be on everyone’s Florence bucket list!!

Happy New Years Eve everyone! When I look back at

Happy New Years Eve everyone! When I look back at 2019- I definitely had some big bumps in the road BUT it honestly has been one of the best years EVER. I truly had unforgettable adventures like my special mother/daughter trip to Italy, being a silly tourist in my own city, discovering Long Islands beautiful lavender fields with w/ @shashana_p, visiting Disneyland for the first time and having the most epic road trip across Ireland with @reinvent.yourself.adventure!

As 2019 comes to an end, I’m excited to see what 2020 has in store for me. I’m going into this new year with an open mind and an open heart. ❤️ Also- a big thanks to all of you for following along and being the cherry on top of a spectacular year!
