The new Airport Overlook at CLT Airport opens tomorrow (6/7/2024)! This place is a dream! There are restrooms. A covered dining space, a designated area for food trucks, a playground, and lots of aviation touches, like a whole jet. - And of course an expansive view of CLT runways to watch aircraft take off and land. The playground made my inner aviation geek SQUEAL! The little aviation touches incorporated into it are the cutest things ever. P.S. There are inclusive play equipment installed, so families of children with disabilities, please know that this space was made with your children in mind! The inclusive whirl is created for children in wheelchairs to be able to ride as well, and there’s a sensory wall with interactive elements that don’t require grip. There is also space under the towers to hide away if sensory issues so demand. My team at work actually had our hands in selecting these pieces to ensure the playground is inclusive beyond the bare minimums. Getting to see it yesterday gave me so much pride. 🥹 If you’re in Charlotte, stop by the new Airport Overlook and let me know if you enjoy it! #charlottenc #clt

Had to make sure I finished my @offlinecharlotte March offers before leaving the country today! This month, I got discounts at @saltedmelonmarket & @smoothmonkey_strawberryhill by being an Offline member! If you live in a city with Offline, it’s a great way to become a tourist in your own city & try places you may have not otherwise known about! At @saltedmelonmarket, I had a strawberry margarita with pomegranate sugar & their Cacio e Pepe pasta. At @smoothmonkey_strawberryhill, I went for a berry açaí bowl.

Fine dining mystery shop from last week! I love being able to treat people in my life to a great meal. This shop paid $20 & reimbursed us for up to $120. (But my bestie & I splurge, so it’s more like a $140 discount 😂) We had to order: 1 drink at the bar 1 appetizer 1 entree 1 dessert The great thing is that for most restaurant shops, you can order more on top of what you are required to order - you just only get the capped reimbursement amount. #mysteryshopper #mysteryshopping #secretshopper #secretshopping #freefood #lifehacking

I’m LOVING retail mystery shops now that I have new boobies and can wear things I’ve never been able to before! For this shop, I got paid $15 & reimbursed $8. Which of the pieces I tried on would you take home? #mysteryshopping #secretshopper #lifehacks #mysteryshopping #savemoneylivebetter

Hi friends! It has been a long hiatus for me, as I had a breast reduction & have been busy recovering. (Not quite fully there, but I’m close!) I’m thrilled with my new body! My constant pain is gone & I feel at home in my body for the first time ever! I obviously wasn’t doing a lot of traveling - I did a lot of sleeping instead. But I do have some things to share coming up. Thank you for your patience and the time that was much needed to recover and reset! 💜

I enjoyed my first visit to @giddygoatcoffeehouse today, thanks to one of my December @offlinecharlotte offers for $10 off! Gods Goat is in the Plaza Midwood neighborhood in Charlotte, NC & was busy for a reason (I.e. good coffee, good food, & a cute space)! They serve empanadas, & I’m such a sucker for an empanada. Plus they have a bar (and plenty of other food & snacks). I also got a protein chocolate oat milk latte, which I’ve never seen offered before. It was a great way to get in more protein in my recovery from surgery. If you live in the Charlotte, Raleigh, Tampa, Nashville, Atlanta, or Richmond areas, get in on this subscription service! Every month you get $$ off at two local restaurants for the flat price of $15/month. Up to ~$25 for each offers. To get sent a link for a free month, comment “Offline.” -This isn’t sponsored, I just love Offline & use them every month! #offline #charlotte #Raleigh #richmond #nashville #tampa #atlanta

The view alone will bring me back to Tuscany. 😍 Our day traveling around a bit of Tuscany was a highlight to both @kristennnvictoria & myself. We booked an excursion through the Chase Ultimate Rewards portal, which included time to visit and wander through the medieval city of San Gimignano, horseback riding through an olive grove, and finally a multi-course meal with wine pairings at a Tuscan farm and winery. If you look to the background, the city in view is San Gimignano. Kristen & I were the only non-romantic pair in our tour group (everyone else was on their honeymoon), but everyone was lovely, and we couldn’t have asked for a better group of people to spend the day with! #italytrip #tuscanygram #travelblogger #italytravel

Wanderful CLT had the best time ever at @nodabrewing for our October Halloween Bee crochet event, led by our own member @paytonec with @paytonplacegoods 🐝 Have you ever seen cuter little bees?? 🥹 Thanks to our @sheswanderful members (+ a couple not pictured) who came out to this event, to @nodabrewing for generously hosting us in their private event space, & to @paytonec for bringing up such a fun event idea & sharing her crazy crochet skills with us! We each got to walk away with our own Halloween bee - a candy corn bee, a zombee, or a vampire bee. @paytonplacegoods has many bees for sale all throughout the year, as well as other handmade items! We’re so excited for 2024 & all the fun events our travel group will get up to together. ✈️❤️
