Hey Reader!

Wow, has it really only been two weeks since I wrote to you? It feels like two months with everything that’s been happening!

I’m back in Washington for the holidays (Stan just arrived for Thanksgiving!) and I have a lot more clarity about where I’d like to take both life and business from here!
​

TL;DR: I want to revamp this newsletter to make it more fun, helpful, and interesting for you. Share your feedback and opinions in this short survey!

I’m going to pause these emails for the rest of the year to re-imagine these emails. It's a challenge for me to do that while still continuing with old ways. 🤷‍♀️

I’ll be back in January with a 2.0 version! Happy Holidays!

​

Change is inevitable. Life happens. We learn. We grow. We move in new directions. 🧭

We can either fight it or embrace it. This desire for newness and novelty is a huge part of what drives many of us to travel, right?!

Since Into the Bold was created from my love of travel and desire to connect with other travelers, it’s going to evolve as well.

I learn best by putting together a rough idea and giving it a try to see what happens rather than planning out every detail.
​

This newsletter just passed one year! Let’s make it better, together. 🙌

Since this has been happening for a while, there’s a lot I’ve learned along the way.

It’s time for a revamp, all in the name of making this an email you’re excited to open every week!

​Your feedback is essential to making this more awesome. If you would take just a couple minutes to answer just four questions about the newsletter, it would be greatly appreciated!​
​

What it means to be “bold” is expanding. Here’s what you can expect… 🎉

Into the Bold has always been about having the guts to go for the life you really want to be living! A central piece of that for all of us is travel.

Until now, the focus has been primarily on international destinations (outside the US) and travel planning.

Into the Bold 2.0 is all about finding bold adventures around every corner! Here’s what that looks like:

• Finding ways to explore the world, both at home and abroad
• Adventuring into the wilds of nature
• Exploring bold flavors through foodie fun​
  ​

What do you think about these new ideas? 🤔

This is all about the freedom to explore in the ways you love most!

By sharing your opinions, I can incorporate more of those into these newsletters. If you’d rather hit reply and tell me about it, that would be awesome as well!
​Seriously, the survey will only take a couple of minutes. I want to hear from YOU!

Indie Travel Inspiration

Since we're in the holiday season, here's a bit of fun for you from around the world!

Travel News

Here are few interesting bits happening in the travel world right now.

• ​The Canadian Pacific Holiday Train is back! After a three year hiatus due to covid, the holiday spirit is making its way through parts of Canada and the US once again!
• ​Frontier Airlines hops on the flight subscription bandwagon. Airlines have started offering subscriptions that range from unlimited flights to special perks and discounts for a monthly or annual fee. Have you tried any of these? I’d love to hear about your experience!

That’s all for this week (and year), my friend! As always, thank you for being here and being a part of this grand adventure with me!

Wishing you the most wonderful holiday season and I’ll see you again in January!​
​

Have a wonderful rest of your day and year!

Cheers,

Annie
