We were just passing through the Dominican Republic when locals kept mentioning “Carnival” and within minutes, it was very clear something big was happening.✨
At the time, I didn’t fully understand what we had stumbled into. But after getting home and doing some research, I realized this is the birthplace of Dominican Carnival… and one of the most traditional, historic celebrations in the country.
And now that I know that? It makes complete sense. This isn’t just a parade… it takes over the entire city. If you ever find yourself nearby during Carnival season... go. No planning needed. Just follow the energy.

Right in the heart of Idaho City, The Gold Mine is one of the town’s most recognizable historic buildings. It leans into its gold rush roots but still feels clean, comfortable, and well kept.🤍
Think: themed rooms with personality.
Historic charm that doesn’t feel gimmicky.
A town that still feels refreshingly untouched when you wake up.
One of the best perks? How walkable everything is. Dinner and breakfast were both an easy stroll, which, in a small mountain town, makes the whole experience feel even more relaxed.
If you want your overnight stop to feel memorable (not generic), this checks the right boxes.✈️✨
