Feeling so thankful for our Thanksgiving in beautiful Palm Desert with Dad, Momma Linda, Robert, Lise, Andy, Amelia, and Libby.

It was the perfect few days filled with sunshine, pickleball, swimming, delicious wine (a must!), and the best company. Grateful for these special moments and the memories we made together. ❤️

It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas, the holidays, ski season…. Do you live in Northern CA and miss the snow and wintery vibes. Well I have JUST the experience for you. Las tonight Ernie and I enjoyed a magical evening at the Fairmont Sonoma Mission Inn & Spa for the media launch of their Swiss Chalet experience which launches tot eh public THIS Friday!

From festive decor, egg nog cocktails, twinkling lights, to delicious fondue and winter-inspired dishes, this is the ultimate holiday escape in Sonoma Wine Country. Each chalet has a unique theme I dined at Hunter Gatherer there is also a Tipsy Elf and an Aprés Ski. Each are charming in their own way and the perfect ambiance to set the tone for Winter.

Book ahead at Dante Restaurant on Open Table. Whether you’re joining for Happy Hour ($50 F&B min per person) or a full dinner ($125 per person), it’s a must-visit spot to celebrate the holidays! 🎄✨

Feeling worn down from a packed work schedule, family obligations, and social commitments? If you’re craving a day to truly unwind and recharge, Vi La Vita Spa at Vintners Inn offers the perfect escape! 💆‍♀️

I recently indulged in an afternoon of bliss enjoying the 80-minute Warm Honey Harvest Massage, and it was pure bliss! From the calming indoor caldarium with its warm plunge bath to a luxurious, personalized treatment, every detail was thoughtfully designed for relaxation. One of my favorite parts of Vi La Vita is their incredible amenities: a sauna, steam room, hot tub, and a cozy relaxation lounge with a fireplace. You could easily spend hours here unwinding before or after your treatment which I do every time so be sure to block a few hours after your treatment to fully take advantage of the incredible amenities.

Located in the heart of Sonoma County and surrounded by beautiful vineyard views, Vi La Vita Spa is an oasis of tranquility. Open daily from 9 AM to 5 PM, it’s perfect whether you’re looking for a quick recharge or a full day of pampering. Treat yourself the next time you’re in wine country—you won’t regret it!

Be sure to tell them the JSF sent you when you book your Spa appointment.

Kenya holds a truly special place in my heart. I celebrated my 30th birthday there, experiencing my first safari with my dad as we traveled through Kenya and Tanzania during the breathtaking Great Migration. That journey ignited a passion for safari travel that I can’t wait to share with others!

As a FORA Pro Travel Advisor and someone who’s had the privilege of firsthand safari experiences, I’m excited to offer personal recommendations for an unforgettable adventure. From the luxurious Sanctuary Olonana to the intimate &Beyond Bateleur Camp, each stay offers something distinct and memorable. I still remember being awestruck by the stunning landscapes of Amboseli and Lake Nakuru and of course the “Big 5” animals I was enamored ❤️ by 🐘 🦁 🦓 🐆 🦏.

Ready to start planning your adventure? Reach out to me at Emily.Martin@Fora.Travel, and let’s bring your dream safari to life!

Whether it’s a safari, a family vacation, a cruise, or any domestic or international getaway, a ✈️ I’m here to help make it happen.

What an incredible 2 1/2 days at my first FORA Liv

What an incredible 2 1/2 days at my first FORA Live Forum in New York City! The event was packed with learning, networking, and so much fun. A huge shoutout to the FORA team especially event organized Laura Kilberg for organizing this amazing experience! 🙌

It was such a pleasure meeting some of my favorite FORA team members in person, including Founders Henley, Jake and Evan, Spencer, Laura, Will (to name a few) as well as the entire spectacular FORA team who made this happen.

With over 500+ FORA advisors and 250+ travel partners—hotels, DMCs, and 🚢 partners—it was truly an unforgettable event. I’m feeling more inspired and excited than ever about everything FORA offers to both advisors and clients.

✨ Ready for glowing, rejuvenated skin? I have t

✨ Ready for glowing, rejuvenated skin? I have to say, after doing Microneedling religiously (once a month) for the past 2+ years my skin has never looked or felt better. I also have never received so many COMPLIMENTS about what I do as my skin is so clear and healthy looking. My secret (well not so secret) is microneedling monthly, drinking a TON of water, sleeping 8-9 hours a day, and enjoying the sun but with hats and sunblock ALWAYS.

Let’s talk about microneedling—one of my favorite treatments at Artemedica Healdsburg! I get this question frequently so hope this Reel will demystify this AMAZING beauty service I swear by and recommend you try as well.

This game-changing facial works wonders by creating tiny microabrasions on the skin, which boosts collagen and elastin production. The result? Smoother, firmer, and more radiant skin. 🌟

Not only does microneedling help with fine lines, acne scars, pores, and uneven texture, but it also leaves my skin feeling refreshed and renewed every time. 💆‍♀️ If you’re looking for a serious skincare boost, I highly recommend visiting Artemedica—their team is the best in Healdsburg! Be sure to tell them the JSF sent you and maybe I’ll even see you there!!!

Thanks again to Artemedica Healdsburg for partnering with me on this monthly facial club!
