It’s hard to believe that 2 years ago today I took a trip around the world in just one day! And what made exploring @waltdisneyworld’s Epcot even more magical was sharing it with my amazing sister, @amominathletics! Best sister trip ever! ❤️👯‍♀️
————
My sister and I also got visit Harry Potter World at @universalorlando which was another destination that I finally got to check off my bucket list!

For when it’s safe to travel again- I’ll be sharing a Disney/Universal travel guide soon on wanderouskaren.com! Stay tuned!

One of my favorite things about NYC is the endless rooftops! Even though I’m not traveling anytime soon, this view gives me all the feels!
—————
Also, when I travel- one of the first things I do is research the best rooftops in that destination. What is the first thing that YOU research when you’re planning a trip?

Swipe to see videos of my recent sailing adventure with @classicharborline and my girl @rosaalexc!

Last night’s sunset cruise w/ @classicharborline

Last night’s sunset cruise w/ @classicharborline was such a fantastic night out. It was amazing to be able to do something normal for a change (don’t worry...everyone on board all wore masks and sat more than 6 ft away)! The stunning NYC views along with live jazz music and a glass of bubbly (which is included in the ticket price) was the perfect way to appreciate NYC all over again! Also, the company wasn’t too bad either 😉 @rosaalexc

The Oslo Opera House is one of my favorite hot spo

The Oslo Opera House is one of my favorite hot spots in Oslo because unlike most landmark buildings- they allow tourists and locals to walk all along the roof of this massive building...and it’s free! 🇳🇴 It’s stunning architecture makes it easy to see why millions of tourists flock here to see it every year. However, I definitely want to make a trip back to Norway and visit more of this beautiful Scandinavian country- especially to see the Northern lights (which is still on my never ending bucket list)!

I’m feeling inspired again while looking back at my photos from Norway. One day soon I’ll be back in an airplane going on my next big adventure! Who else is having travel withdrawal??!

Is it me or is Philly one of the most underrated cities in the US? It has some of the richest American history along with amazing food, hip neighborhoods with unbelievable street art and some really beautiful attractions like the @phillymagicgardens (pictured here). I think I’m definitely going to plan a trip back to the city of brotherly love after covid! Have you ever been to Philly before? If so- what was one of your favorite things about it??

NYC and NJ are getting close to finally reopening!

NYC and NJ are getting close to finally reopening! I couldn’t be more excited! Here’s a little #tbt to last Summer when @shashana_p and I visited the gorgeous lavender fields at @lavenderbythebay.
—————
Even though their fields are closed for the season due to COVID-19, their farm stands are still open for curbside sales. You can also order online! If you love lavender and you want to support a local farm/business- go check out their adorable merchandise!

While I’m adjusting to the new normal and still

While I’m adjusting to the new normal and still trying to accept the fact that I won’t be traveling anytime soon- I‘m extremely thankful that 2019 was the best travel year of my life. I definitely left a piece of heart in Venice last Summer 🇮🇹 ❤️🇮🇹 #travelthrowback

While the most magical place on earth is closed, I’m still day dreaming about eating Mickey Ice Cream bars, riding It’s a Small World After All, and dancing with Mickey Mouse balloons alongside my niece and nephew. One thing’s for sure, @disneyland is fun for all ages and I can’t wait to go back again!

One year ago today, my mom and I went on a mother/daughter trip to Italy. It was one of the most amazing trips of my life! Amazing memories with the best mom in the world. Happy Mother’s Day mom! Thanks for being my travel buddy! ❤️💛💚🧡💜💚

Missing these views! 😭 The first thing I’m going to do once this quarantine is lifted is book a flight and start planning my next adventure. Who’s with me?!? 🙋🏻‍♀️ Keep your head up NYC- we are almost on the mend!

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 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!

How are you preparing ?? Any fun ideas to stay away from cabin fever? Comment below 👇👇

Stay safe everyone!

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 almost brought me to tears 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 extraordinarily beautiful towns and indulge 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??
