Hi, I’m Julia! My goal is to help you feel excited, confident, and prepared for your next big trip.
Vacations, weekend getaways, and even little day-cations are personal. We spend so much time planning, saving, researching, and looking forward to these experiences, and I truly believe they should feel fun – not stressful, overwhelming, or confusing.
I created this blog to help make travel feel easier, more exciting, and a little more magical.
Whether you’re planning a Disney trip, a cruise, a Coachella camping weekend, or searching for a beautiful hotel stay, I want this space to help you create memories that stay with you long after the trip is over.
After years of visiting theme parks, staying at hotels across California and beyond, testing packing lists, planning itineraries, and yes… definitely over-packing for trips, I finally created a place to share it all.
Here you’ll find:
- Theme park tips and guides
- Hotel and dining reviews
- Travel planning advice
- Packing tips and travel essentials
- Outfit inspiration
- Cruise content
- Local adventures and hidden gems
If you’re interested in working together, collaborating, or sharing amazing places, feel free to reach out at sayhello@juliavaness.com. I’d love to connect.
