Grateful for deep dish pizza, Christmas pop-up bars, ice skating ribbons, Gühlwein, glitter lattes, puffy jackets, and another trip around the sun with my soulmate 🥰🎂🥳 #chicago

OFF THE GRID 🦎🇧🇷 We’re in Brazil, heading out this morning on the M/Y Tucano (behind us) for an off-the-grid expedition into the Amazon... deeper into the rainforest, in fact, than any other tour goes! 😱 (I didn’t know this when I signed up 🤣) Wish us luck among the anacondas (and caimans, poison frogs, harpy eagles, jaguars, etc.) ... 😅

Having your best friends spread across the country

Having your best friends spread across the country really sucks, except when you get an assignment to one of their hometowns ❤️ Thanks for showing me around your stomping grounds this weekend @hannah.spargo—still wish you’d move to Florida so we could share cocktails + belly laughs + clothes + knowing looks + all the sass on a daily basis, but let’s be real, the world (and @aaronjnosbisch) probably couldn’t handle it. 😂 Miss you and Charlotte already!

NOTES FROM ALASKA (literally copied/pasted from “Alaska notes” in my phone 😂)—SAVE THIS POST if you plan to visit someday!
📝
Alaska is a seasonal destination - not really possible for tourists to visit in the winter
❄️
First week of September is a great time to go because it’s nearing fall and colors are changing already (foliage turns much sooner in Alaska); good weather; only a couple weeks left of the season; animals are in “hyperphagia” (more active) so high probability of seeing wildlife
Drawback (or a plus lol): fewer children/families because kids are back in school so draws an older crowd
🍁
Must-try food in Alaska: reindeer sausage! You can find reindeer dog carts throughout Anchorage with practically the same density that you’ll find hot dog stands in the streets of New York City.
🦌
Calving = when part of a glacier breaks off and falls into the water and becomes an iceberg (so icebergs = broken-off chunks of glaciers)
☃️
Fun fact: there are more privately licensed pilots per capita in Alaska than any other state - 1 of every 62(?) people - the only way to get some places is dog sled or private plane!
🛶
Take a “safari” to see the “big five” of Alaska: grizzly bears, moose, caribou, wolf, Dall sheep - binoculars are a must!
🐻
Make sure to read Jack London’s “The Call of the Wild” before you visit or during your trip
🐺
Any Alaska questions?! Happy to answer them... this Florida girl was pretty clueless about Alaska before this trip 😅⬇️

Pretty different climate than my last post 😅🌲
.
Most people think of cruising when they think of visiting Alaska, but did you know you can explore Alaska by land AND sea with @princesscruises?! We’re doing an inland adventure before embarking for the Inside Passage next week. ❄️
.
Most interesting thing I’ve learned so far on the inland portion is that Alaska’s Denali mountain—formerly named Mt. McKinley by an Ohio gold prospector to show support for President McKinley, though the local native people had called it Denali for centuries 🤔—is the highest peak in North America, and is actually taller from base to summit than Mt. Everest!
.
Aaron’s fun fact is that Denali was first summited by four rowdy locals on a barroom dare—it took them 18 hours and they did it carrying a bag of donuts, a thermos of hot chocolate, and a 14-foot spruce pole. 😂 No one believed this “Sourdough Expedition” really made it to the top until another group of climbers on a summit expedition 3 years later spotted their spruce pole!

P.S. This is a giant rack of moose antlers, which they shed in the winter and grow back again each spring, larger every year. Also there’s no moose emoji so here’s a deer. 🦌

I do x2! 💍

Married @aaronjnosbisch again and spent a gorgeous few days in Aruba 😍🇦🇼 During the trip, we participated in Aruba’s 3rd annual beachwide vow renewal ceremony—the largest in the Caribbean!—with 200 other couples, and a backdrop of one of the most beautiful beaches/sunsets I’ve ever seen.
.
(Wanna go next year?! It’s free to participate!)
.
The romantic island of Aruba was the perfect setting for such a huge celebration of love and commitment, and we had a blast exploring its many adventures and stunning scenes over the past few days. 🌅
.
(AND I SAW @yoga_girl, Y’ALL!!!!!!)

All-American 🇺🇸 There’s something about the northeast that reminds you where we come from as a nation and all there is to be proud of in our heritage—if you’re a little world-weary and need a reminder, head to a small seaside town like Bristol, home of the oldest 4th of July celebration in the country. 🤗 #bristol #rhodeisland
