Ever spent the night in a beautiful boutique hotel and thought
"This is close to perfection, and I want this bedroom at home!"??
Me too.
That's me snapping photos and scribbling a smart
floorplan and millwork details on hotel stationery.
(speaking of which, Hello Lovely is on instagram
now and needs followers!)
Truth is, I'm less "boutique hotel snob" than "simple homebody"
who prefers resting her head on a familiar pillow at home.
Oh I like the idea of world traveling, but since it involves
um...planes, trains, suitcases, and traveling...
La Fiermontina - Puglia, Italy
I like the idea of being a brave backpacking babe.
But me and backpacking?
I am way more suite life than camp life...
an adventure involving a pack on my back
would invariably be deemed
The Trail of Hotel Snobbery Tears!
A stay-at-home-gypsy, I am a seeker of
inspiration whenever away from home,
collecting ideas to enhance the everyday
for when I return...and gypsy
is always happy to get back to homebase.
Camping with the summer sisters in Wisconsin, nary a boutique hotel in sight.
So this boutique hotel heavy post is for all travel types:
frequent flyers checking into boutique hotels
around the world, backpackers desiring to feel superior
and courageous about hip hostel habits
and no-frills frugality, and stay at home gypsies
longing to bring boutique hotel style
to home sweet home.

Here is another unique boutique hotel!
Have a favorite from above?
Diggin the suite life as a world traveler,
backpacker babe, or stay at home gypsy?
Don't you love it when a hotel
has a signature scent!?!
Peace to you right where you are.
