Fred and I traveled to Cabo San Lucas, Mexico from March 1 - 5th where I was the matron of honor in one of my best friends’ wedding! I was very excited to not only celebrate this amazing couple but also explore a new part of Mexico.

We stayed at an all inclusive resort called Pueblo Bonito Sunset Beach which was an absolutely stunning (and very large) property right on the beach.

Our last stop in the French Riviera was Cannes. We didn’t realize until after we booked our trip and were looking up things to do that we found out we would be visiting during the Cannes Film Festival. Although it was quite crowded, we enjoyed our time in this swanky town.

Our vlog from our time in Cannes is now live on my Youtube Channel so be sure to check it out here.

Nice (pronounced like “niece”) was one of the cities we definitely wish we had more time to explore but in the short time we were there, we could see why it is one of the most popular destinations in the south of France.

It was approximately a 2-hour drive from Saint-Tropez but we didn’t have any issue getting an Uber (which cost just under €200).

Celebrities have flocked to this French Riviera town for decades and for good reason. Not only does it boast exclusive beach clubs, super yachts, and exquisite restaurants, but it also has the most charming cobblestoned streets that you could get lost in for hours.

There were a few options to get from Paris to the South of France, so we opted for a flight because it was the quickest and surprisingly the cheapest option as well.

We booked a flight on Easy Jet from Paris Orly airport to Toulon. The flight was about an hour and a half, and then we took an Uber from Toulon to Saint-Tropez, which was about an hour drive.

Once we arrived in Saint-Tropez, Fred and I both knew this town was going to be something special.

I know that traditionally newlyweds go on their honeymoon immediately following their wedding, but for multiple reasons ours was a bit delayed.

For starters, Fred and I haven’t done several of the “traditional” things when it comes to our wedding/marriage because we enjoy doing life our way.

Secondly, we coudnt’t decide exactly where we wanted to go. Originally we thought Japan would be amazing since neither of us have been to Asia but unfortunately, they still require a 10-day quarantine upon arrival from the U.S. and being that we only had about 10 days to spend for our entire honeymoon, that wasn’t going to work for us.

Although we have both been to Paris, we hadn’t been there together as a couple - or better yet, as husband and wife. We decided to add the French Riviera to our trip to make it unique so we could both see other parts of France that neither of us had been to before, but that will be in future blog posts so this one can be dedicated just to our time in Paris.

Our trip began on Tuesday, November 23rd when we arrived at LaGuardia airport around 9AM. After collecting our luggage from baggage claim (because you know I couldn’t fit all my boots & sweaters in just a carry on) we hopped in an Uber en route to our hotel. We stayed at a hotel near Grand Central Station, in order to be in close proximity to many sights we planned to visit during this trip.
