5 Travel Wish List Destinations That Will Inspire

July 30, 2023 Stay in Europe, Stay in North America, United States, Wander Europe, Wander North America
I am Lost and Found’s original tagline was ‘Luxury Travel.’ Over the years my travel tastes evolved and ‘luxury travel’ felt limiting. Plus, I wasn’t only traveling to luxury hotels anymore. So I changed it to ‘Adventure and Luxury Travel.’ Eventually, even that felt limiting. I thought about the goals of my site. I am Lost and Found inspires travel—so ‘Inspiring Travel’ it is. Ready for inspiration? Follow along for five travel wish list destinations I’m dreaming about right now.  It’s another sticky, steamy day...

Enchanted. Why Mii Amo is the best Sedona spa.

July 10, 2023 Stay, Stay in North America, United States, Wander North America
Mother/Daughter Adventures at the Best Sedona Spa Air is air. Of course, it can be humid, dry, or wet. It can be conditioned or heated, still or sticky—the adjectives are endless. When I visited the Mii Amo spa in Sedona, I looked for words to describe the air. How did it feel?  Neither crisp, nor brisk, nor thin, nor heavy. Then, it dawned on me. I wasn’t feeling anything. The air was imperceptible. The beauty of not noticing the air is that my other senses...

July 4, 2023 Belize, Caribbean
Sailing in Belize is the antidote to Caribbean over-tourism. Follow along on our adventure to the Belize Barrier Reef where we discover some of the world's best underwater life, remote islands, and just how much food one really needs to survive.

It’s Her or Me

June 15, 2023 Travel Essays
“Your room isn’t ready quite yet,” says the man at the front desk. His crisp, white, short-sleeved shirt offsets his muscular, coffee-colored arms. The resort logo is centered on his matcha green tie, which is slightly askew. His nametag is perfectly level; ‘Hello, I’m Ajay!’ it reads. “Okay,” I reply, “About how much longer.” My question comes out as a command, a New York habit I’m keen to break. Ajay begins punching computer keys with his long, elegant fingers. Like he’s playing the piano. My...

Stowe in Summer: 10 of the Best Ways to get Local

June 15, 2023 United States, Wander North America
A few summers ago, my husband and I decided to head north. To live village life, country life, and a less rushed life in the mountains of Stowe. My parents’ house was empty, and it seemed an ideal way to escape the oppressive DC heat—a way to break the monotony that had gradually manifested over the past few months. We packed up only the most essential items; our kids, our dogs, a few hundred Nespresso capsules, and cornhole. As it turned out, our essentials don’t fit in...

Who Needs A Travel Advisor? It Turns Out I Do.

May 17, 2023 Fab Finds, Travel Essays
As much as I love traveling, there are just some parts of travel I’d rather not plan. My travel advisor has often been a lifeline, saving me time, money, and my sanity more times than I can count. I’ve overheard people question why anyone would use a travel advisor when it’s so easy to book everything themselves. I’ll admit, I used to question it, too. I don’t anymore. Here’s why. Back in March 2020, my family made the unpopular decision to carry on with our...

Not long ago, I polled my followers on Instagram: ‘What should I write about next?’  1 / Adventure Travel 2 / Luxury Travel 3 / Practical Travel 4 / Eco-Travel Winner: Adventure Travel Interesting.
