The Weekender, Memorial Day Weekend Edition

Holy Crap you guys Memorial Day Weekend is here!!

I really can’t believe we are on the brink of the summer season. The month of May flew by so incredibly fast and I am not complaining at all for once. I have been working so much and am ready for fun day trips and summer vacations. The first on my list (as I write this from the airport) is Cleveland this weekend actually. Not too exotic but I am getting to see my little brother turn 18 and graduate from high school. It is so crazy he is 18 and yes I know, it’s a little cray I have a brother so young. #ifeelold I am so super proud of him and excited he will going to college close by me.

After this trip there will be a lot of traveling and I am counting down the days. Trips are so needed to refresh the mind and body after all the crazy things life throws at us. I know it isn’t always feasible for everyone to take lavish vacations (trust me I bargain shop the airlines) but even little day trips or just a weekend away does wonders for the soul. I hope you all have a fun filled weekend and if you don’t have much planned check out the links below for some inspiration and as always keep on eye on snapchat (ilona-shabovta) to see the usual shenanigans. 😉
