Creating experiences of well-being, ease and connection has always been something that I've loved. Anytime someone comes to my own home they always comment on how calm they feel.
When I had an opportunity to create our rental property, I knew I wanted to make it a space that felt like an extension of my own home and that hopefully, allowed guests to feel a sense of warmth, comfort and greater of well-being.
It's all in the details!
I've been very intentional about creating various, what I call, points of ritual and connection which I feel enhance daily life. This looks like cozy corners to enjoy your morning tea or coffee, handmade ceramic mugs that make drinking that beverage just a little more special, nooks and objects that invite slowing down, a simple table that allows for lingering longer over a meal.
Infusing these points of ritual is one of my favorite parts of hosting. My intention is always to make even the mundane a little more meaningful. I think my guests feel that even if they aren't totally aware as to why.
