    Exploring Florida Springs: Nature’s Liquid Jewels

    November 28, 2023 / 1 Comment

    My absolute favorite thing about living in Florida so far has been exploring the Florida Springs. They are absolutely breathtaking. The deep colors and the clear waters make for an otherworldly experience, and I have seen so much wildlife on these excursions.

Florida has over 1,000 springs, so I still have many more to explore, but these have been my favorite Florida Springs so far. Exploring Florida Springs 1. Three Sisters Springs Three Sisters Springs is part of the Crystal River National Wildlife Refuge, and is the place to go in winter if…

    November 5, 2021 / 1 Comment

    I moved to Charleston over a year ago from Oregon, and one reason was to be in warmer weather and to be closer to the beach. Well, this has led to many trips to Florida, since it’s not that far away. And, that led to me discovering the beaches in St. Petersburg and Clearwater. I was astounded. I’ve mostly visited the eastern coast of Florida, but discovering the Gulf coast area has made me decide to move there next year. Here are the best beaches I’ve discovered in the area.

About Me

I am always looking for the perfect escape, the perfect paradise, the kind of place that tosses your cares into the sea. Fortunately, I have discovered many! I created this site to show you where to go and how to get there. My goal is to show you that Paradise is only a plane ticket (or boat ride) away. I have inspired many others to travel and to create a better life. I am available for inspirational speaking, coaching, writing, travel planning, and photography.
