Part 2 in #Poland 🇵🇱 was the lovely #Warsaw. I vibrant, resilient, and welcoming city rich was history. We were enamored by the WWII history and how the Polish people have persevered and rebuilt their homeland in exponential ways. I’m so grateful to go back to my roots. I felt super connected with this country and their people. I’m a proud Polish girl who got a dose of my history. Can’t wait to go back one day!

Shout out to @hotelvertewarsaw, a stunning hotel that I also got for free 3 nights using my @marriottbonvoy points! Love traveling with my #pointsandmileslifestyle

#krakow Poland 🇵🇱 you captured our hearts and showed us some beautiful sites. And tons of pierogis! I’m so grateful this was our first stop as I got to know more of my heritage. Poles are resilient, driven, proud, and warm people. Guess I didn’t fall far from my DNA tree 😉 from stunning architecture at the churches, the unscathed square and Old Town in WWII, and the winding and intimate streets, Krakow was a true gem. One day we’ll be back. Dziękuję Poland for being my country 41!

@caseandpoints approved. Flights to Poland w/ @delta Skymiles & global upgrade certificate + 3 nights hotel with @marriottbonvoy points in Krakow all on #pointsandmiles saving myself thousands of $$$$ #pointsandmilestravel #pointsandmileslifestyle by @caseandpoints

Country 39 was Japan 🇯🇵 This part 1 as I need to honor our 11 days because we had so many distinct memories.

Chapter 1: #kyoto. The calm and grounded city that is filled with gardens, forests, rivers, shrines, temples, and beautiful vistas and views from so many angles. We went sake tasting. We toured Gion. We visited imperial villas. We made chopsticks. I got a blowout. We shopped. We walked 20k steps a day. We leaned into whatever came our way. The humble and proud people made our first stop such a treat. So grateful for the perfect first stop on our adventure. I loved letting the days unfold as they came with my fav travel partner @yconio 💜

Plus, you know me that I covered our hotel for 4 nights using #pointsandmiles. Thanks to @capitalone venture X saved myself nearly $1000 on our stay. Heck yes! #travelrewards #pointsandmilestravel by @caseandpoints

Take me back 🌴
Maui you were splendid. It’s a natural playground of sun, sand, sea, mountains, reefs, and so much more.
It’s a place for play. A place to wind down. For trying every bars Mai Tai because why the hell not.
Thank you @shakaguide for helping us navigate adventure. Another badass trip with my hubby @yconio and soul friend @erinbijas. Mahola Hawaii.

Oh and @caseandpoints was hitting hard here with free roundtrip flights for hubby and I, all in @delta one using only 79,000 pts + regional upgrade certificates giving us $11K in value for only $22. Hell to the yes!

Country 38 = A last minute trip to remember. We decided on #PuntaCana to celebrate 14 years in each other’s lives. The @cataloniahotels Royal Bavaro was a stunning resort and exactly what we needed. Plus, in @caseandpoints fashion, I used my @chasesapphire points and snagged our room with points boost and saved $1300 on our stay! Plus, got the standby life with @yconio hubby’s Delta life! Hell yes! Talk about a steal and vacation we will always remember as we enter our 14th year around the sun. Thank you DR 🇩🇴 What a way to end 2025.

We often travel to get away from reality. Go see new places. Taste fresh flavors. Meet new people. Immerse in another culture. But sometimes a trip can take you back to things and people you miss or steep you into being wholly present. This trip did those simultaneously. This week taught me flying solo, doing a trip on my own, meant I had all the time to be in my head. Feel the songs on the car rides. Make new friends without any expectations. Shed tears for those we love. Revisit a country being a completely different woman than the times I’ve gone before. Our final dinner led by an innocent 12 year old host and closed with the kind words of an inspiring 89 year old, makes you realize both how long and short life is. And it’s what you fill those years with that matters most. Love, travel, music, laughter, food, dancing, conversation, and gratitude, that’s what I hope I keep filling my time with. Grazie to everyone a part of this week, mentally, physically, or emotionally. My first @gadventures trip did not disappoint. Grazie to @agriturismosantalfonso for the special backdrop and delicious meals for the week and @thefalcontrail for being the most gracious host. 🇮🇹 ciao ✌🏼

The #azores was hands down one of my favorite trips to date. What a place to ring in my thirty divine era! The last year around the sun until my next milestone, and earth showed itself off on this vacation. The Azores and the São Miguel island was stunning! One of the most green and blue colored spaces (among so many other shades) I’ve visited. Add it to your list, stat!

Major thank you to @erinbijas for being ok with our last-minute pivot from our planned Maui trip (which we still will take) to here. We may have traded in the Pacific for the Atlantic but I actually think it may have an early sign for you too… trading in your current West Coast shores to be back on the Atlantic in near time. I think this trip symbolized how we can be agile and flexible to things thrown in our lives, and a change of location doesn’t take away from your new one. Love you soul friend. 💜 Plus my cousin @jillkelledy joined last minute and it was so much fun making more and more memories together! You may have had a shorter trip with us, but you made the most of it and my trip all that much sweeter. Cannot wait for more trips in our future!

Now the @caseandpoints drop on this baby.
✈️Got my $800+ nonstop flight on United, using my @chasesapphire points.

🏨And then nearly $1400 for a 5-night hotel stay using my @capitalone #ventureX.

Then I can spend the money on amazing tours, excursions, experiences, and elevated meals! That’s how you do it with #pointsandmiles!

And even better, both of my travel companions got their flights using points and miles under my guidance 👏

#Pointsandmiles are extra nice when they get you to a country twice! I went to #germany my first time in 2016. And then again earlier this year. Germany 🇩🇪 has plenty of noteworthy highlights to see across Munich, Stuttgart, Berlin, and Hamburg!
🍻 Sensational Beers
🥘 Tasty Schnitzels
🚗 The best of cars
📖 Rich history
🏔️ Beautiful vistas
All that and more is why making a trip to Germany is worth it. And why not do it on #pointsandmiles so you can spend your cash while you’re on the trip?!

✈️ First time around I saved $1000 with United points.
🏨 Second time around I saved $1250 on 4 nights in Munich via Capital One travel.
🤑$2250 saved and endless memories made.

This can be you! I can help you master a #pointsandmileslifestyle •

I’ve spent 13 birthdays with you. That’s 13 times that I’m grateful you were born and could be in my life @yconio.

This afternoon as I fly back from #halifax to NYC, I overheard a little girl looking out the airplane window. She is gleeful, eyes wide open, clinging to the window as we ascended, and saying “oh wow, we are going through the clouds. Oh my, we are above the clouds.” She’s in awe of it all. A complete sense of wonderment. And that’s what traveling with you, Anthony, is like. We may be adults where much of life we’ve seen before, but when we travel, and go to new places, we are actually experiencing that same childhood enchantment with each new place we go to. We go to each place with the promise of seeing something to delight us, energize us, educate us, and just enrich us through new cultures. Travel allows us to enter a global playground. There is no one else I rather do forever recess with 💜 Happy birthday babe. I hope you loved #novascotia as much as I did.

Kayaking, wine tasting, slamming restaurants, sail boats, sunsets, harbor tours, shopping, and so much more! It was well worth the visit and I know I’ll be back!

And of course, we did it @caseandpoints style with 4 nights using our @marriottbonvoy points at the Westin Nova Scotian. Saving ourselves $1400+ as we built another bucket of memories. by @caseandpoints

Ok real tea.
I saved myself $3000 and over 100,000 #pointsandmiles by making simple hacks.

1. Price comparing points across airlines #frequentflyer programs. Delta lost this one with having a flight at 125,000 miles vs 21,000 on Virgin. Virgin saved me 104,000 points! Hello slamming deal!

2. It got sweeter. I leveraged @chasesapphire #ultimaterewards 25% transfer bonus to Virgin thru June 15!

3. Points > cash! I saved that huge chunk of change vs paying out of pocket!

I will coach you into thousands of dollars of savings! DM me and let’s get you traveling for free!
