If there’s one month we’d tell everyone to travel, it’s May 📅
The summer crowds haven’t arrived yet, the weather is hitting its stride, and the destinations on everyone’s list are still actually enjoyable. It’s the sweet spot most people miss because they’re still in planning mode.
Here’s where we’d send you in May and why:
🌆 the city people → Barcelona, Lisbon, Paris, Rome, Amsterdam, London. Cathedral hopping in Barcelona, sunset aperitivo in Rome, the Seine at golden hour in Paris, and Lisbon’s tiny tascas serving the kind of food and wine that makes you cancel your flight home.
🌿 the countryside people → Provence, Tuscany & the Douro Valley. Think lavender fields in Provence, truffle pasta in a Tuscan farmhouse, and port wine tastings along the Douro River as the sun sets over the valley.
☀️the sun seekers → Greece — cliffside villages in Santorini, fresh octopus at a harbor taverna, boat days between islands, and water so blue it genuinely doesn’t look real.
🗾 the bucket list people → Japan — cherry blossom season is winding down and the crowds go with it. Experience the quiet temples of Kyoto and the buzzing streets of Tokyo, the best food of your life at every price point, and an energy completely unlike anywhere else.
One of these has your name on it, let’s figure out which one!
