I’m honored to be featured by the Local Moms Network of the Chicago North Shore as this week’s “Meet a Mom”! We chatted all about my journey from classical vocalist to travel advisor, the heart behind Sunkissed Bliss Travel, and why I believe travel is about who you become, not just where you go.
If you’d like a little dose of escapism (and a peek behind the curtain!), you can read the full feature below.
Meet a Mom: Meredith Schnepp, Founder of Sunkissed Bliss Travel
I remember a time when my suitcase was practically my entire world. Moving from place to place, I learned the rhythm of living lightly—packing, unpacking, and embracing the beauty of impermanence. That same sense of motion comes alive on a Ring Road Iceland itinerary. Traveling this way is ambitious, exhilarating, and requires a willingness to move frequently, often staying only one night before the next adventure calls. I always build in a few two-night stays to allow breathing room and time to fully experience each destination.

Thoughtful travel goes beyond where you go. It reflects how you show up once you arrive. Honoring the places you visit means traveling with intention, respect, and awareness so your presence benefits the destination, not burdens it.
