I spend most of my day in email threads and whatsapp groups talking about hotels, flight routes, and whether eight nights is enough time to do two places without wanting to cry on the flight home.

There are usually at least ten tabs open. Half are hotels I’m comparing. One is a map. ALWAYS. A. MAP. And most often, the weather app. One is a note to myself about a restaurant I want to remember.

That’s pretty much what my brain looks like most days. Add on being a first time mom, wife, and head of house, it’s a lot..

Rhode to Somewhere is where all of that goes.

Not a traditional travel blog. Not destination guides written for the entire internet. Just a running place for the trips I’m planning, the places I keep sending people, the hotels I’m recommending, and the things that are actually happening in my inbox right now. Real. Honest.

If you’ve ever wondered what a travel advisor is thinking about all day… Maybe you haven’t? That’s OK too. Ive been doing this for too long.. Im too seasoned to let all these thoughts stay in my head.

Candidly, I’ve wanted a place to essentially word-vomit my travel brain for…ever. Fun fact: I fully intended to graduate college with a journalism degree and become a travel writer. Then I realized I absolutely hated editing, panicked senior year, pivoted, and accidentally started what’s now been a 15+ year career in travel. Whoops.

And yet, here we are. Back to writing. Very full-circle moment.

This is a space for all the things that live in my head and inbox — trip ideas, hotel recs, routing thoughts, and the things I keep telling clients on repeat. Somewhere you can come for inspiration, a little education, and the kinds of travel notes that usually live in my drafts folder.
