I could never understand why people raved about Paris so much, until I went back more than once and slowly started to appreciate its beauty.

This is a guide for how to visit the Champagne region without a tour! There are so many group tours to the champagne region from Paris, but I strongly believed I could do it myself, and I was VERY successful. While group tours hold a lot of value for many people, I noticed group tours to champagne were quite expensive and there wasn't a lot of freedom to pick and choose what you wanted. I created my own itinerary and we LOVED visiting this region and it was truly so easy! This will be an itinerary of what we did each day, where we stayed, where we ate and drank, and what we saw during our time in Reims & Epernay. I will also include at the end things I would do if I had more time... or should I say... WILL DO because I know we will return. This itinerary involves taking the train from Paris but will also include other options. It includes a full day spent in Reims, France and a full day spent in Epernay. With 2 nights in a hotel in Reims. It will include a cost breakdown, where to make reservations, and some small gems we really loved! I am also MORE than happy to consult with you about this itinerary to help you pick and choose what suits your needs. Feel free to reach out with questions before or after purchasing at planformedani@gmail.com or planforme.dani on instagram

Welcome to Ericeira, a wellness paradise nestled along the stunning Portuguese coastline. This guide invites you to immerse yourself into a blend of nature, surf and outdoor experiences that define the identity of this place. With this guide to Ericeira, you'll find everything you need to make the most of your water retreat. Recommendations ranging from cozy guesthouses nestled in the heart of the town to seaside spots with panoramic views of the ocean, co-living and hostels. This place is turning into a digital nomad hub, which locals and pre--covid expats call "the floating island" as it feels disconnected from the rest of life happening. I'd recommend you leave your laptop at your accommodation and soak up the atmosphere, instead of getting lost behind a screen in a coffee shop. Most places have a no lap top sign. The recommendations I have included in this list, are all places I have stayed at or been at. In Ericeira, wellness isn't just a concept - it's a way of life. It requires you to actively choose limited blue light exposure. Indulge in Nature and Connect with People. Ditch the tech. Welcome to a place, where every moment is an invitation to flow with life.
