LIFE HAS BEEN BANANAS LATELY…in the best way
The weather has been beautiful, new and exciting work opportunities are popping up out of nowhere and OMG did you see that United followed me?!?! LOL, I can’t pretend that I didn’t have a major freakout. I’m also gearing up for our second Gals Abroad Getaways trip to Greece (make sure you’re following us on IG to watch all the behind-the-scenes) & immediately afterward Linda and I are going to scout a new destination for a Gals Abroad Getaways trip - keeping it a surprise for now ;) but I know you’ll be pumped when you find out where we’re headed.
All in all, we will be gone for an entire month, and preparing for these long trips is always a bit of a dance while managing other projects, clients, and life on the move.
That said, I’ve been doing massive amounts of research for this destination (I visited back in 2013 but only skimmed the surface) and this trip will be a proper DEEP dive and I can’t wait to take you along with us.
But before I get ahead of myself, I am so excited for this group of gals to experience Greece the way Linda and I know and love it (and with fewer crowds) Have you seen those videos of Greece this summer - YIKES - shoulder season or bust friends I’ve been saying it for YEARS.
In preparation for these trips, I’ve been planning out all my content, batching some reels & putting the finishing touches on my Rome Video Guide (dropping on YT next week) so lots of exciting things to look forward to on the socials. But until then, here are some travel tips & guides to hold you over.

ALLE’S A-LIST
Trina Turk’s Out of Office Line
Ever since I lived in Palm Springs and got to interview Trina Turk when I worked at KESQ I’ve been a fan of the brand. There’s something so whimsical and sunny about Trina’s clothes & they’re incredibly well made.
I recently learned about their new travel focused line of clothes & of course couldn’t be more in love. I have this top & skirt (pictured) and will be taking them to Greece with me and they couldn’t be more comfy - honestly feels like pajamas and looks so chic.
The whole like is done in a similar style & if you’re traveling somewhere warm in the near future you gotta check it out.
SOME OTHER FAVORITES:
MY TWO IN ONE SUNSCREEN AND MOISTURIZER - this is my favorite sunscreen brand and I love that it kills two birds with one stone in my morning makeup routine.
LUGGAGE TRACKING DEVICE - If you are traveling anywhere these days, honestly, these are essential. They tell you their exact location and I put them in my backpack, luggage and purse when traveling (buy the 4 pack you’ll thank me later)
YOU NEED THESE COLORFUL & CUSTOMIZABLE TRAVEL POUCHES - they come in so many shapes and sizes & even have backpacks, totes & duffle bags!
THE CBD ROLL ON THAT CALMS ME DOWN - I’m testing out some new CBD products from a friend’s farm in NYC and I gotta say when I was having a major freakout the other day (stress man) this was a nice tool to turn to and I found that it helped to stop the doom spiral. Great for muscle pain and headaches too!
MY NEW FAVORITE STATEMENT SHOE - these are going to be perfect for where Linda and I travel after Greece - kind of a hint but not really lol.
FOUND A DUPE FOR MY $300 FEATHER PJS! - I went ham last night and ordered so many things with feathers lol - like this lavender dress, this set and this cute nightgown and robe which would actually be really cute for a bride
THE BEST CARRY ON BACKPACK - everyone is raving about this carry on & I’m thinking I might get this for Greece and test it out - plus I love the color!
HAPPY ENDING
This video had me cackling so hard and also the accuracy is 100%
