Michelle's life is a colorful map of exploration and adventure. From the iconic streets of New York to the sunny shores of Florida, the jagged coast of Maine to the rugged terrain of Montana, she's been fortunate to call some of America's most beautiful states home. Beyond the U.S., Michelle's wanderlust has taken her on a motorcycle journey through India, led her to teach English in Hanoi, and saw her studying Spanish in Guatemala. Michelle graduated with a communications degree from the S. I. Newhouse School of Public Communications at Syracuse University and in addition to a career in advertising has worked with OnlyInYourState since 2016, where her love for travel and storytelling converges. Alongside writing and exploring, Michelle finds joy in photography, staying active, and time with her family.

This season means twinkling lights, remembering what we’re grateful for and hopefully, a little snow. Each yeah in Maine small towns around the state come alive to help celebrate Christmas. Each town has their own special traditions that we look forward to, but the things that happen in Waterville beginning just after Thanksgiving enchant us in a unique way.
During any other time of year, Waterville is a normal town. The type you might see anywhere.
And, to help make him feel at home while he's away from the North Pole, Santa's temporary home at Castonguay Square is made cozy and twinkly as can be.
Santa meets children every weekend between Thanksgiving and Christmas, giving each one a free storybook courtesy of the Mid-Maine Chamber of Commerce. Literacy is an important mission of the local business community and this is just one way to help improve the lives of the young people in Waterville...err, Kringleville!
Santa visits with children each weekend in from 1 p.m. to 4 p.m. in Castonguay Square. On December 20th, he’ll also be seeing folks from 5:30 p.m. to 8 p.m. Click here to learn more about Kringleville or check them out on Facebook.
