Fun Facts

Best Travel Tip: Be flexible and ready to pivot. Travel rarely goes exactly as planned. Flights get delayed, attractions close, or weather shifts your itinerary. Instead of stressing, stay open-minded: have a backup plan, build in extra time, and use unexpected free moments to explore something off the beaten path. Sometimes the unexpected moments turn out to be the best parts of your trip.

Fun Fact: Anna moved every 4 years of her life until adulthood, but she has now lived in the same city in South Carolina for 18 years!

Future Plans: Anna and her husband have two adult children and look forward to traveling even more now that the nest is empty.

Most Beautiful Places She’s Ever Seen: Bora Bora, Switzerland, and Lake Como.
