I'm an east coast girl living in a west coast world. I grew up in New England before moving to SoCal for several years. I then lived in NYC or a year before moving to AZ in 2009. I worked in the entertainment industry for many years of my adult life and have a deep love for photography, writing, and traveling around the U.S. as well as to far-flung locations around the world. Travel is my life and writing about it is a dream!
Sometimes getaways are hard to plan in advance, so if you’re more the spontaneous type, we have an excellent suggestion for you. Surrounded by nature along the Shawnee Hills Wine Trail sits Alto Pass, the perfect spontaneous small-town getaway in Illinois. Sip wine while surrounded by the forest and go for a hike if you feel inclined. Alto Pass is one restful and enjoyable place to spend some time.
