Zermatt Vibes: Where fairytales wear ski boots and glaciers touch the sky.

Hi, I’m Tara! I help women travel smarter, rediscover themselves, and live fabulously after 40. If that sounds like your vibe, FOLLOW me now for expert travel tips, hidden gems, and magical moments like this one.

Zermatt isn’t just beautiful—it’s breathtaking. Last week? 94 inches of fresh powder in 3 days. In April. Yes, really. You can ski 365 days a year here—but trust me, there’s so much more to do:

• Gondolas with Matterhorn views
• Glacier Palace (12K+ feet up!)
• The historic Gornergrat train
• Après-ski at Harry’s Ski Bar
• Lunch with a view at Say Cheese
• Dog sledding at the foot of the Matterhorn
• Shopping, dining & strolling along Bachstrasse
• Igloo hotels, paragliding, horse & buggy rides…
• Cozy eats at Theodors Stuba & luxe stays at @matterhornfocus

Where are you heading first?

Zermatt isn’t just a trip—it’s a full-on alpine mood. And if it’s on your bucket list, I’ve got your back.

Save this post for your trip—and comment “GUIDE” for my FREE Zermatt Itinerary & Planning Guide.

This Earth Day, I’m sharing a reel that encapsulates some of the most transformative journeys I’ve embarked upon. From the vibrant markets of Morocco 🇲🇦 to the serene coral reefs of Fakarava 🐠, each destination has left an indelible mark on my soul.

These aren’t just travel memories; they’re chapters of a story where nature played the lead role.

📍Morocco (Pics 1,2)
📍Fakarava (Drone footage, Pics 3, 4,5)
📍Sedona (Pics 6,7,8)
📍Marquesas Islands (Pics 9, 10)
📍Grand Canyon (Pics 11, 12, 13)
📍Moorea (Pics 14,15, 16)
📍Tahiti (Pics 17 & 18)

As a woman over 40, I’ve discovered that travel isn’t just about places; it’s about rediscovering oneself. It’s about embracing new experiences, stepping out of comfort zones, and finding joy in the unknown.

If you’re seeking inspiration to embark on your own journey of self-discovery, or simply looking for tips to travel smarter, you’re in the right place. Join me as we explore the world, one breathtaking destination at a time.

📌 Save this reel for your travel inspiration board.

💳 I can’t name the card (rules, y’all) but TRUST—this is the go-to credit card if you want to start traveling more for less. Points & miles girlies, this is your moment. (Comment “TIPS” and I’ll send you a link)
⁠
I just booked QSuites to Kenya for 85K points one-way 😱 That SAME seat would’ve cost me 300K+ if I’d used the card’s travel portal instead of transferring to the airline’s program.
⁠
👉 Here’s the key:
1️⃣ Earn the 100K welcome bonus (yes, it’s real!)
2️⃣ Transfer points to a frequent flyer account
3️⃣ Book directly with the airline for MAX value
⁠
I got the QSuites alert from @thriftytraveler and they literally walk you through every redemption. Think: step-by-step instructions + backup options to help you actually score it. You can get $20 off their Premium membership with my link too!

✨ Comment “TIPS” and I’ll DM you:
🔗 The exact card I used
✈️ The flight deal program I swear by
⁠
You don’t have to be a points pro to do this — I’m new to the game and it’s been so doable!

📌 Save this post for later.

Where else can you walk into a food tour with strangers and leave with full bellies, fun facts, new friends, and a deeper love for your city? ⤵️

Answer: @westpalmbeachfoodtours —and yes, it was that amazing.

✨BTW, they were just voted to the TOP 10 Food Tours by USA Today! ✨ #prinvite

👋Hi, I’m Tara, @fabulouslyadrift and before we started, hit ➡️FOLLOW, if you love tips to travel smarter and travel tips & gems! I’m bringing you it all from Palm Beach and beyond!

Every bite was a storytelling medley:
Historic @erbradleys_wpb
Parisian vibes of @pistachewpb
The tropical flavors at The Pink Shell and Tropical Oasis
culture-rich tasting at @gringuita_cookies
And the Grand Finale at @kapownoodlebar
—every stop was a chef’s kiss.

But here’s the cherry on top: this very tour was just named one of @usatoday Top Food Tours in the U.S., and the Saturday market route includes stops at the WPB Green Market, voted #1 Green Market in the country 3 out of the last 4 years. Now that’s brag-worthy!

From a fresh juices and an amazing blueberry mojito that made my taste buds dance, to fresh made conch fritters, handmade noodles, and key lime pie you’ll dream about later—this tour is what Saturday mornings should be.

What food would be your favorite to try?💬👇

The best part? The stops rotate, so no two tours are the same. Go twice. Go hungry. Just GO.

Check out their schedule for all of the amazing food and drink tours they host in Downtown West Palm Beach!

🗂️Save this for your next trip to West Palm Beach—you’ll want to come hungry!

Who’s ready for a Slow Travel Italian Summer? ☀️🇮🇹

Who do you want to take with you for an Italian Summer? 🔖Tag them below! ⬇️

👋Hi, I’m Tara @fabulouslyadrift and before we dive in, be sure to hit ➡️FOLLOW for more tips to help women travel smarter! I’m fabulous, thriving and exploring after 40, follow along!

My last Italian Summer, I soaked up the magic of Positano and Capri—breathtaking views, dreamy blue waters, and that unmistakable La Dolce Vita energy. ✨

And this year? I’m slowing things down, immersing myself in the charm of Camogli, a hidden gem near Portofino (thanks to a recommendation from @planforme.dani), before indulging in the timeless beauty of Florence (where my daughter is studying abroad!). ❤️

This trip is all about slow travel—embracing the culture, savoring every espresso, and truly living in the moment. No rushing, no checklists—just deep, meaningful experiences in a country I adore.

And the best part? I’ll be traveling with my youngest daughter, making unforgettable memories together. 🥰

Ever wondered what it’s REALLY like behind the scenes of a luxury cruise? Let me spill the secrets! 🚢⤵️

Ever heard your own voice on a podcast and cringed? Yikes, SAME! My first-ever podcast appearance was with @janetbava , Windstar’s CCO (and my amazing friend), on Friends We’ve Made Along the Way. And let’s just say…lesson learned: ALWAYS use a microphone! 🎤😂

Hi, I’m Tara and before we get started, hit FOLLOW @fabulouslyadrift for more incredible travel moments, tips, and self-discovery through adventure! 🌊💙

Audio mishaps aside, this experience reminded me why I love @windstarcruises

🌎 I miss Windstar SO much! It’s been over a year since I last sailed, and I’m itching for my next adventure!

⛵ Small ship sailing = the best kind of travel. Personalized service, immersive experiences, and a journey that feels deeply meaningful rather than rushed.

👨‍✈️ Windstar is a family. From the wait staff and stateroom stewards, all the way to the President of Windstar, everyone treats you like you truly belong. It’s a rare and beautiful thing in travel.

✨ It’s about the journey AND the people. My trip to French Polynesia didn’t go as planned (storms, detours—you name it), but it became one of the most magical adventures of my life because of the incredible people onboard.

So…where should I set sail next?! 🌍 Windstar has epic itineraries everywhere, and I’d love your input! Or, drop your dream destination below…join the conversation!💬👇

The world pauses. The air holds its breath. And then—Alpenglow. ✨

For a few fleeting moments, the Matterhorn burns with hues of pink, orange, and gold, as if the mountain itself is alive. It’s the kind of beauty that stops you in your tracks, a moment so perfect it feels like nature’s own crescendo—the kind that makes you want to throw your arms out and yell into the sky.

If there’s a place where the earth sings, this is it. 🎶🏔️
