Just because we didn't travel as much in 2025 doesn't mean we didn't have some incredible meals. From sushi trains to eating cheesesteaks in a car in South Philly - with lots (and lots) of Mexican food in between - these are our best meals of 2025.

7 months. Over $20k of our own money. Thousands of hours of work.
And we decided to bail on a $5,000,000 resort - what would have been the biggest real estate deal we’ve done so far.
And while it was crushing in the moment, that changed quickly.
Here’s the whole story - and why I’d do it all again in a heartbeat.

Over the last 5 months, since I announced my "retirement", a lot has happened.
And I mean...A LOT!
Stuff like:
- losing a $5 million deal
- pivoting to an oceanfront resort
- being very close to acquiring a 240 acre farm
Retirement life - I've never been busier!

Wilmington, NC is an awesome city. Heck, that's why I moved here 5 years ago and was able to convince Jonas to move here a few weeks ago.
It's also a market I know very, very well - and one that I am very excited about doing a micro resort in.
Today, we pull back the curtain and deep dive into a potential deal that we are looking at so that you can see the thought process and framework we walkthrough on each deal we analyze - and how we come up with either "heck yes" or "no".

The site of our first international micro resort is:
- A country that neither Jonas or Trav has stepped foot on.
- Small, tropical, and not known by many people.
- Home to incredible scuba diving.
So how did this become the first place we decided to do an international micro resort?
And where is it?
To get those answers, you've got to listen to the show!

Short answer: VERY!
But for some people, the design process can be very overwhelming.
Today, Heather shares why design is the one of the most importance parts of any hospitality project (especially a boutique one) and why it's not JUST "oh, that's visually appealing" but that it goes much deeper.
Plus, she also gives some of her top design tips that anyone can implement, even if they aren't a designer, and the one thing she will NEVER allow in one of her properties?
