Nicki's Travel Newsletter #18
Hello, hello!
Sorry it has been about a month since I have sent out a newsletter. A lot of traveling and various things going on at home.
I just got back from Maui and the Big Island of Hawaii and I am trying to get this content out as fast as you all are requesting it.
I haven’t shared hardly anything from Maui yet … but here is a sneak peak of one of the amazing sunsets I saw.
Every single day on my trip to Hawaii was stunning. I highly recommend visiting in October. The last two years that is when I have gone and it has just been magnificent. Low crowds, lower rates, etc.
The Big Island was also great - I was there for a photo project but wrote about it since there was so much interest on social media (linked below).
Travel Deals:
I have been keeping an eye on travel deals in case I see anything while I was not writing my newsletter and nothing really felt amazing - but here is what I have this week!
Bora Bora + Moorea - I have seen people complaining about the rates they are seeing for next year and just yesterday I saw in a Facebook group someone said they were quoted $22,000 for the week in Bora Bora with no inclusions. ALL THAT BEING SAID - this deal starts at $4509 and you will get the following:
4 nights at the St Regis in an Overwater bungalow
3 nights in a land villa with a pool at the Hilton Moorea
RT flights from LAX
Interisland airfare
Transportation to and from hotel
ALL taxes (which are big)
And daily breakfast at both resorts
I wouldn’t think twice about snagging this deal.
$429 Alaska Cruise with Holland America - Alaska is fantastic and I have cruised with them to Alaska in the past. You can read about that HERE
Travel Plans
I currently do not have anything planned for this month but have been going back and forth about visiting somewhere in the USA that has a lot of holiday stuff going on. Still deciding.
I will keep y’all updated.

Things I am loving right now:
Air Tag - STILL loving this and was able to track my luggage when I got on a two week cruise. The ship had left and my luggage was MIA. WE FOUND IT! I will not check a bag without this.
Crossbody bag - technically a fanny pack but more stylish and looks like a bag. I have been loving this for travel days. I wear it across my chest and keep all my travel info in there and easy to access. It’s cheap and well made.
Mini perfume refillable bottles - this is the gift that keeps on giving. I have been using these so long now and so many of you have told me you love them as well. I am glad someone had the thought to create it.
I get so many questions about my aerial videos and photos and I swear by this drone. It is lightweight and produces amazing quality content. Even if you just want vacation photos/videos - this is the drone you want.
Amazon Store Front – you can find all my favorite items here.
