Vermont . October 2024
Fall has always been my favorite, but growing up in Texas, this trip finally gave me the chance to experience the autumn of my dreams—with the most vibrant foliage I've ever seen, the crisp autumn air, cozy sweaters, warm apple cider, post card worthy small towns, and the coziest Airbnb, where the sweetest hosts welcomed us like family. With every moment feeling warm and unhurried in the best way.
