Welcome back for another solo episode of Travel, Pray, Slay. I am fresh from vacation and my first trip of 2022. I took an adult Spring Break 10-day trip to Chicago, Charleston, and then Savannah. Charleston and Savannah, better known as the Lowcountry, have been on my list for a while. I love the south and all things old school and vintage. Charleston and Savannah are both coastal cities. So, if you are thinking about going to the low country, I wanted to share my insights on what you should do and where you should go, because I had a great time! Check out the full shownotes here.
