As the year comes to an end, I took a look back through my blog and social media to remember all the places I got to see this year. It has really been a crazy year of travel, my passport got some new stamps and I got to meet some incredible people.
I wanted to recap some of my favorite photos from my work and personal trips. It is such a blessing to blog and get to travel the world to do it, to travel with family and friends and experience places I never thought I would go!
Blogging took me to some new places I hadn’t been before like Thailand where I got to ride elephants and eat the best mango sticky rice I have ever had. Shortly after, I finished the Summer off with a trip to Jamaica where I had a little R&R before September’s NYFW. From there the rest of my year kind of blended together as I did more travel in the last part of the year that I had in so long.
I went to on a Caribbean Cruise on Princess Cruises, then I went to Marrakech which was another city on my bucket list, then it was back to the US for a quick break before going to London for the Victoria’s Secret fashion show.
Between all the international travel, I had a few small work trips to Miami for Art Basel, San Francisco to design a custom bag with Longchamp, Charlotte for Self Magazine and Crest, all while being bi-coastal between Los Angeles and New York. Whew! (I also took some fun trips with friends to Vegas and with my family to St Tropez and Paris so I got in some personal travel!)
As the year ends, I wanted to say a big THANK YOU for all the companies and brands who gave me the opportunity to travel the world this year. I am so grateful to experience new places for a living and it has been a dream come true. I can’t wait to see where 2015 takes me (hopefully South Africa ahem) but my passport is ready!
If you missed any of my travel vlogs, take a look through the playlist on my Youtube channel for this year’s travel video diaries to Paris, St Tropez, Thailand, Jamaica, London and more!
