Holy mother of renovations….

We have been under construction for such a long time, it feels strange to be home without the sounds of banging, drilling or sanding. Seriously, it’s been the soundtrack to our lives for 2 years. But hey… our Smoky Mountain suites in Bryson City are finished and the bottom floor of our house is officially livable!

When we set roots in Bryson City, we knew we’d have a ton of visitors from family to close friends, so we always knew we wanted to be able to host our beloved guests (and our home is too small to house that many people). It was part of the deal when we moved from Miami, Fl… people would get to visit us and vacation in The Smoky Mountains! I guess it was our way of bribing them to come see us 😉

 

The Sunset Suite

Come Visit us in Bryson City for a Smoky Mountain Getaway

We’re happy to announce, we’re also opening up our suites to friendly travelers passing through the Smoky Mountains! After putting so much love and care into them, we figured, why not let people outside our friendship circle experience this? Jaime and I are both travelers at heart. Some of our absolute best experiences around the world came from the generosity of a stranger hosting us in their home or apartment. To be able to host travelers in this special place, our new home, is a deep source of joy for us.

 

The Sunrise Suite

Why we moved to Bryson City

We uprooted our lives to move to the Smoky mountains 3 years ago. I still can’t believe we did it. Some days I have to pinch myself because it was such a drastic change. I tend to consider myself someone who likes routine and predictability, but this move — which was a huge risk for us — prompted me to look at myself and question that assumption. I like predictability to a point, but I’m not afraid to take chances.

There were so many times in the early days of my career that I looked outside my office window watching people on the move to then go back to my computer feeling chained to a desk and to a life that was passing by and starting to look the same over the weeks, months and years. I longingly watched people on Youtube selling their things and traveling or moving to a brand new place. All the while, I never thought that would be me. And now, holy crap, it is me! I moved to the mountains, published my book and even started a Youtube channel to chronicle the process.

Long story short… moving here has been a big growth spurt for me. I’m still learning new and surprising things about myself.

We want you to experience this peace

We moved to Bryson City because we wanted to experience peace and a connection to our natural world every day. We believe everyone should have the opportunity to feel that. There’s so much power and clarity that comes from being here!

Bryson City is a special place. This small town in the middle of the Smoky Mountains reminds us of the part of ourselves that is linked to nature. It’s a place that reminds me we are all connected, and therefore, whatever you want to manifest in your life is possible… because you’re a part of it already.
