It's time to dream about your next vacation.
The COVID Quarantine in the US is over and vacation travel has begun. Take some time to think about your next vacation. Why not stay close to home and check out one of Travel & Leisure magazine's 50 Best Places to Visit for 2020? Asheville, NC, with its small town feel and big city music and cultural scene, showcases the more sophisticated side of Appalachia. It's home to artists and musicians, as well as food and drink entrepreneurs serving up farm-to-table meals and craft beers. Nicknamed "Beer City" be sure to sample offerings from the Burial Beer Company https://burialbeer.com/ or Wicked Weed Brewing Team https://www.wickedweedbrewing.com.
Another "don't miss" is the fabulous Biltmore Estate https://www.biltmore.com/visit/. The 250 room Biltomore House and 8000 acre property is still family-owned and lovingly preserved.

Take the stress out of packing for your next trip
Most frequent travelers swear by packing light to reduce stress and fatigue when traveling. Since most airlines now charge for checked bags, learning how to pack everything you need into a carry-on bag is esstential (as well as money-saving). That's where capsule wardrobes come in.
What is a capsule wardrobe? It's a small collection of useful clothing items - making packing and getting dressed on your trip easier.
Here's how it works: choose 10 items (including shoes). For women: 3 tops, 2 bottoms (pants/skirts/shorts), 1 dress, 1 sweater or cardigan, 1 jacket & 2 pairs of shoes. For men: 3 tops, 1 formal shirt, 2 bottoms (pants/shorts), 1 sweater, 1 coat or jacket, 2 pairs of shoes.
Emphasize layering when developing outfits and adjust/substitute pieces for cold or warm weather destinations.
