Wanderlust at 35+

In this Destination Discovery episode, we’re heading across the pond to explore the magic of London. We’re talking royal palaces, Big Ben, high tea, and everything in between—so if you’ve ever wondered if London lives up to the hype, you’re in the right place. I'll be giving you the insider scoop on what to expect beyond the typical Google searches and share my personal experience touring Buckingham Palace and exploring the city in the summertime.

From navigating the Tube like a pro to enjoying a pint in one of London’s historic pubs, I’ve got tips to help you make the most of your trip—especially if you’re on a budget (because London is expensive). Whether you're obsessed with the royal family, into walking tours, or just love exploring different neighborhoods, this episode has something for every kind of traveler. Plus, if you’re a fan of stunning city views or want to know the best spots for a perfect afternoon tea, you won’t want to miss this!
