Some places stay with you long after you leave. Grand Teton is that place for me. 🏔️🤍✨

Paid partnership with @casablancanv 🌵
A little mother-daughter getaway to Mesquite, Nevada, just a short drive from St. George 🤍 We made @casablancanv our home base for the weekend and packed so much into our stay - pool time, a little casino fun, dinner at Katherine’s, and dancing together at the free Casapoolooza live event. 🎶

The next morning, we headed to @zioncanyonhotsprings for the perfect Sunday reset ♨️ Such a beautiful place to relax, soak and slow down before heading home.

I think I need more mother-daughter weekends like this. 🥹🤍

Trying to convince your BFF to take an Iceland road trip with you? Consider this your pitch. 🇮🇸
Because an Iceland road trip comes with: 🌊 Waterfalls around every corner 🌋 Volcanic landscapes that look like another planet 🏔️ Dramatic mountains + black sand beaches ♨️ Hot springs and slow mornings 🚗 Scenic drives with nowhere to be 🐑 Random roadside stops (because… Iceland) ✨ And way too many “wait, look at this!” moments
Basically: rent a car, make a playlist, bring your favorite person, and let Iceland do the rest.
Now send this to the friend you’d take with you. 👀🇮🇸

“But did you die?” No. But Lady Mountain in Zion was my first hike. I did not ease in. I went straight to rappelling, exposed scrambling, and a trail that requires actual upper body strength I did not know I had.

Shoutout to the best group of humans who talked me across every ledge and kept me alive to tell this story. You know who you are.

Gloves did not survive. I did. Fair trade.

The Horseshoe Bend in Page Arizona is one of the coolest short hikes in tne Srate! Bonus if you go during sunrise or sunset. Have you been?
