Coast to Coast with @IHGhotels in📍 Miami, Flori Coast to Coast with @IHGhotels in📍 Miami, Florida 🏝 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I got the pleasure to stay a night at the iconic InterContinental Miami, with stunning views of Biscayne Bay. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Being “from” South Florida and traveling there my entire life, people don’t realize how much art is in Miami. Minutes from the hotel, you can find the Wynwood Arts District and the Miami Design District, which are mine and my sister’s favorite neighborhoods in the city. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨As an art buff, my sister loves the Design District. It’s known for it’s sleek modern architecture, upscale interior design stores, and art galleries, which resonates with the spirit of the InterContinental’s interactive art lounge in their lobby. 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨Wynwood, on the other hand, is it’s eclectic kid sister, known for it’s massive collection of colorful murals by some of the world’s best-known street artists. Plus, you can find funky dive bars, beer gardens, and electric galleries. It’s my top recommendation for anyone visiting Miami! 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
✨But, don’t forget Calle Ocho for some Cuban coffee and a pastelito de guayaba y queso!☕️🇨🇺

Call me Ranch because I be dressing 😜🤦🏽‍♀️

Brad calls this my “church skirt” but HOW because 1) it has a slit so this is not church appropriate 2) I paired it with a crop top 3) church is online for me lately! 4) growing up in the south... The LOOKS I would get if I showed up to St. Mary’s in this wrinkled mess. No, ma’am. 

Men don’t get it 😂🙄 http://liketk.it/38Rmi #liketkit @liketoknow.it #LTKcurves #LTKshoecrush #LTKunder100

Sometimes you need a vacation from a vacation. Am I right? ☀️ 
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I was so happy when I got back to Austin for three reasons:
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
1) their weather was a stunning sunny & 75 (& I hope it gets back to that for them so soon!! ❄️)
2) I was back to put some of their fooooood in my belly (hello breakfast tacos! 🌮)
3) The @hotelindigoaustin ‘s pool area was open for lounging 😍
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Brad & I had driven 18 hours from San Diego to Austin, so the next morning, he took the morning to go golfing & I lounged at their beautiful hotel area to decompress. Can’t beat it!

📍 San Diego, California Our first stay on our 📍 San Diego, California
 
Our first stay on our coast to coast road trip with @ihghotels is at @hotelindigosd 🚗 🌊 
 
We chose IHG as our temporary home for the next few weeks for many reasons:
 
As an active-duty military member, I’ve been an IHG Rewards member since 2016 & have worked with, trusted, & stayed with them all over the world (including Thailand!)
 
They have hotels & resorts everywhere! Which makes booking so simple no matter where we land along the way.
 
They’re going above & beyond with their Way of Clean protocols & Clean Promise to support your wellbeing throughout your stay.
