I have arrived...

At least that's what FourSquare said this weekend. I finally unlocked my JetSetter badge! Went up to Sonoma, via SFO, for some wine tasting and relaxation and presto FourSquare put the icing on the cake. Sadly in our digital age it took a social network to validate me!

For my flight I used my gorgeous new silver Hunter bag to carry on all my essentials: water, Vogue, bran muffin, mac book air, Burt's Bees lip gloss, lotion, etc. One key learning for me has been that travel is much better when you have the right essentials. It increases the pleasure 10 fold.

And oh Sonoma was amazing. What a beautiful spot! We saw rows and rows of vines. Bucolic is the word that best describes the region. Farm to food restaurants throughout the valley. It was amazing. 




Back to my new standing....many years ago I decided I want to be a Jetsetter...figured it's best to aim high!
The mantra "fake it til you make" keeps me booking trips, hoping it will take :)  Here's my vision board I created to support my efforts. There is a school of thought that says you can attain something by visualizing it. I put this together to hasten my Jetset fantasy into reality.


Seems I'm finally getting this off the ground one flight at a time! Thanks FourSquare for another visual cue towards my goal.
