Spiced Autumn Harvest Sangria

I’m so excited that Autumn is finally in bloom! The summer weather lingered around much longer than usual and it seems to have taken forever to witness the most iconic signal that fall has arrived – the changing of the trees.

Little known fact about me is that I’m a total introvert and the best way for me to recharge my batteries is some major alone time. I always take solo trips and absolutely love getting away to the desert. I find the energy in the desert quite magical, plus, I can never get enough of sunshine and palm trees! I had an amazing time exploring Scottsdale and enjoying some much-needed downtime to rejuvenate. I put together this Scottsdale travel guide, curated with all …
