Amanda Boehm

Iceland will forever hold a place in Amanda's heart. This is where she planned her dream honeymoon, and will forever be a favorite trip and one she will go back to as much as she can. When most people think Iceland, they think a grand adventure, but rarely romance. But why not both? From the excitement of seeing lava and active volcanos, whale watching on a yacht, hiking to see waterfalls, walking between the tectonic plates, and watching some of the biggest geysers in the world erupt to the serenity of soaking in warm, beautiful hot springs like the Blue Lagoon, spending the night in a heated bubble watching the stars and Northern Lights dance above you, and wine tasting in a quaint wine bar in Reykjavik, Iceland truly has something for everybody and is one of the most unique landscapes you will ever encounter.

Africa will forever hold Amanda's heart. The way the most beautiful orange sun set you've ever seen sets over the continent will always take her breath away just thinking about it! Amanda has had the privilege to travel within Africa with South Africa, Zambia, and Namibia being her favorites (so far). She had previously not had too much of an interest in a Safari until the first game drive she ever went on, and her world was forever changed. Seeing these magnificent, wild animals run across the terrain and hearing the sounds of Africa is one that will forever stick with you in the best way! Add watching the clouds roll over Table Rock in Cape Town and wine tasting in the wine region to the South African adventure, and you are complete! From there, being able to visit Zambia and walk next to Victoria Falls and hear and feel such power and vastness will forever make you feel small in such a surreal way. Take a scenic drive through Namibia to experience the unique terrain of the red sand dunes (where Live Action Aladdin was filmed) and be able to climb some of the biggest dunes in the world and take a hot air balloon ride ending in a champagne brunch at the base of the dunes. Africa is a place that has captured Amanda's heart and will forever be a place she counts the minutes down to get back to!

Amanda fulfilled her top bucket list item of visiting Antarctica! Visiting her 7th continent was always a dream, but she never knew how attainable it would be. The moment she opened the window to wake up and see the glaciers and penguins swimming by is one she will never forget. The second she stepped foot onto the incredible continent, an overwhelming feeling of gratefulness and such a surreal feeling will never be forgotten. There are many options becoming available to visit this incredible continent, and it is so exciting that more people will be able to experience it! You will never find a place more "pure" than Antarctica. The air is so crips, the colors seem more vibrant, and there is an untouched, magical feeling that comes with each step!
