i just returned from another incredible adventure with Lauren and It’s the Kellys, this time to Georgia, Armenia and Azerbaijan, and what a wonderful time we had!
This was at least my third trip with It’s the Kellys, and I think I look forward to seeing the friends I’ve made on these trips almost as much as the destinations themselves! Lauren has such a gift for bringing together the most amazing group of interesting, fun, like-minded women. There’s always so much laughter, great conversation, and the kind of friendships that I know will last a lifetime. I’ve met some truly wonderful women through these adventures, and that alone is reason enough to keep coming back.
And then there are the destinations! Lauren has introduced me to places I barely knew existed, much less ever imagined I would visit. She puts so much thought into making sure we have authentic experiences, meet local people, and really get a feel for the places we’re exploring. It’s so much more than just checking sights off a list.
But what I appreciate most about Lauren is how much she genuinely cares about everyone having a wonderful time. She makes an effort to spend time with every person, makes sure everyone feels included, and always puts the group first. In a world where so much travel seems to be about getting the perfect photo or creating content, Lauren is far more interested in making sure we’re all having the best possible experience. And it shows.
I’ve been fortunate enough to travel a bit, and I can tell you that what Lauren has created with It’s the Kellys is something really special. I come home from every trip with wonderful memories, new friendships, a few hilarious stories, and a long list of reasons to sign up for the next one.
I’m already looking forward to seeing where we all meet up next!
