Favorite Vacation: Wow, that's a tough one, so I'm going to break it into two - my most memorable journey and my favorite R&R trip.

My most memorable trip was to Japan. It was amazing to experience their culture and to completely let go of everything that is 'normal' to me. I tried things I never thought I would eat, visited 'Hell' (Hot Springs), and toured a sake brewery. Truly an adventure I will never forget!

My favorite R&R trip is to the Cove at the Atlantis in the Bahamas. Each year my mom, sister and I visit this resort to do absolutely nothing. Our days consist of waking up when we want, eating breakfast, then it's off to the adult only pool for the day. It gives us a chance to reconnect and relax.
