I love health data and being my own experiment. Th I love health data and being my own experiment. The more we know, the more power we have to change it. I’m partnering with @Hone.health, an online clinic dedicated to empowering people to take control of their own health. The platform easily schedules a quick lab visit near you then you schedule a telehealth consultation with a physician. The doctor goes over your wellness goals, labs, and lifestyle then helps you come up with a plan to achieve your most optimal health. This includes science-backed practical advice, supplements, or prescription medication. I’m looking forward to seeing how things change as I attempt to better balance my hormones. #HoneHealthPartner #sponsored
So often, the best places are the hardest to get t So often, the best places are the hardest to get to. And in this case, just a hard ride and a lot of washboards and bumps.

I needed this. I may have shed a tear over waking I needed this. I may have shed a tear over waking up in the van in the mountains, feeling the crisp cold morning air, smelling campfire smoke from other campers, and the sounds of birds. After what feels like a way too quick summer of drowning in my new tart baking business with almost zero time in the van to truly disconnect, plus my dad passing somewhat unexpectedly last week, it feels like months of stress…not to mention the constant news and horrors of the world that weigh on all of us. I desperately needed some peace and calm in nature. Life is hard and beautiful. This world is effed up. When things get a little hard, I tend to retreat and withdraw a little or a lot. Thanks for sticking with me this entire year of being mostly absent from here.

Basically my favorite island on earth, Sardinia It Basically my favorite island on earth, Sardinia Italy is a stunning visual snack. If life goes as planned, we’ll return this fall. Here are what I’d consider some “must-dos” of Sardinia.

#ad Did you know, every 15 seconds someone in the #ad Did you know, every 15 seconds someone in the US is diagnosed with cancer? Chances are, each of us will care about someone who is diagnosed or be diagnosed ourselves.

That’s why it’s so important we support the @americancancersociety who funds research to improve survival, offers free programs and services, and helps patients and families navigate the confusing world of cancer.

One of my favorite things about summer and living One of my favorite things about summer and living in this area is @greenbluffgrowers and all the fresh seasonal produce. @bigbarnbrewing is where we’ve been picking the last few years.

These were the hikes we prioritized in the Dolomit These were the hikes we prioritized in the Dolomites in June and they were nothing short of spectacular. None of them were difficult and ranged from easy to moderate. I’m sure we missed plenty of epic ones too, but you can’t be disappointed with these (if the weather cooperates). These plus other sites were all quite doable in a 7 day itinerary.

Budapest is an affordable, walkable, and beautiful Budapest is an affordable, walkable, and beautiful city. We spent a week resting and recharging after more outdoorsy destinations and loved the food scene. Here are some spots to save:
• Fisherman’s Bastion 
• Shoes on the Danube (a WW2 memorial)
• St Stephan’s Basilica 
• Szimpla Kert (a ruin bar)
• New York Cafe (this is supposedly the most beautiful cafe in the world and it is stunning but extremely popular and overpriced)
• Mazel Tov (very popular restaurant but frankly I thought it was overrated)
• Aran Bakery
• Lion’s Locker (our favorite coffee and brunch spot)
• Kontakt Coffee (honestly there are so many good specialty coffee shops like Apricot, My Little Melbourne, Tamp and Pull)
• Metropolitan Ervin Szabó Library
• Hungarian Opera for a cheap show
• Hummusbar for a quick cheap snack 
• Franziska for brunch 
• House of Terror Museum for a history lesson

Glacier National Park is one of the most beautiful Glacier National Park is one of the most beautiful and popular NPs but the famous Going-to-the-Sun Road is usually closed until late June. But you can still access most of Lake McDonald and small sections of East Glacier year round. Even the Apgar campground on Lake McDonald is open year round at discounted or free rates. We had the whole lake to ourselves and a quick cold plunge was a must. Just keep in mind there are no/reduced amenities and pack out everything you bring in.
