Hello, beautiful travelers and curious style lovers,
Welcome back to Travel + Explore & Play with Sallee Jay—where I usually take you through my most wanderlust-worthy destinations. But today, I’m channeling my inner fashion blogger, because my recent trip to New York City was anything but ordinary.
Hey there, adventure-seekers and fellow foodies! Welcome to another mouthwatering episode of "Travel + Explore and Play with Sallee Jay" — where I'm not just your host, I'm your culinary co-conspirator!
I've JUST touched down from the concrete jungle that is New York City, and my taste buds are STILL doing happy dances from what might be the food highlight of my year (bold statement, I know, but wait until you hear about it)!
I was inspired to move to the United States as I prepared to send my daughter off to college and step into a new chapter as an empty nester. It felt like the right moment to embrace a change not just in life stage, but also in pace and place.
Hello again 😀 and welcome to Travel + Explore & Play with Sallee Jay, I am your guest host, Rachel Nava.
Rachel is biracial, with Mexican and Finnish heritage, which gives her a unique perspective on the world. Her diverse background has shaped her travels and the way she connects with different cultures, making her experiences all the more meaningful.
Hello and welcome to travel + explore & play with Sallee Jay, I am your host.
If one is lucky in life, they are able to make 2 or 3 really good friends. It’s even better when those friends become family. Allow me to introduce you to one of those people in my life, Rachel Nava. Recently, we traveled to Nola to celebrate my longtime sister-friend affectionally dubbed “Chacon” for her 50th birthday and 5th wedding anniversary and we had a blast.
Rachel and I met when we worked together almost 20 years ago and have always managed to stay in touch. She is a rare and beautiful soul and the epitome of a true friend.
