Kelsey Unpacked: We Planned a Romantic Trip to France… Then Europe Hit 103°
Published 3 months, 1 week ago
Description
What happens when your dreamy, romantic France trip suddenly turns into a European heat wave survival mission? In this episode of Kelsey Unpacked, I’m sharing the real-time pivots we’re making before our kid-free getaway to Paris and Chablis — from confirming air conditioning at our tiny French chateau to rethinking my cute wine country outfits, packing electrolytes, and asking ChatGPT to heat-proof our itinerary. Don’t worry, we are STILL going… but the trip may involve a little less frolicking through vineyards and a little more “where is the nearest AC?”Buy Me A Coffee: https://buymeacoffee.com/kelseygravesFollow me on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/kelsey_gravesFollow me on TikTok: https://www.tiktok.com/@mskelseygravesJoin us in the Trip Tales Podcast Community Facebook Group: https://www.facebook.com/groups/1323687329158879Mentioned in this episode:
