For @nytimestravel, I reported on 36 Hours on the North Fork of Long Island, a place I was lucky to call home for a while. On my most recent visit, I got to connect with some incredible female entrepreneurs who’ve started their own wine label, sustainable restaurant, mushroom farm, and innovative art spaces. (Cheers to @poppy.and.rose.wine, @terravitevineyard, @minnowatthegalleyho, @mattituck.mushrooms, @veme__studios and @pamiwilloughby!) Weekends out here feel effortless; you admire art, drink wine, eat fresh seafood, go for a breezy bike ride along the waterfront, stock up on produce at the farm stands, and cruise Peconic Bay with the inimitable captain David Berson. Embrace the NoFo vibe: Peace, love, joy, wine.✌️Gift link in bio.

Every fall, I look forward to volunteering with @norwalkriverwatershed at Oyster Shell Park, where we show the 2nd graders from Cranbury Elementary School how to collect different native flower seeds and share in the wonder of the pollinator garden. The kids loved the prickly hitchhiker seeds and getting to witness a monarch butterfly eating milkweed. 💚 #natureismagic #getkidsoutside #plantmilkweed

Love starting the day trail running with Remy! 🍁 #calmingvibes #littleadventure

Sending love to everyone struggling through this terrible time, especially to my cousin and her children and all the civilians caught in the middle of this madness and inhumanity. Donate to @magen_david_adom_america @allianceformiddleeastpeace @thepcrf if you can. 💌 #warisnottheanswer

Song for Autumn by Mary Oliver

In the deep fall
don’t you imagine the leaves think how
comfortable it will be to touch
the earth instead of the
nothingness of air and the endless
freshets of wind? And don’t you think
the trees themselves, especially those with mossy,
warm caves, begin to think
of the birds that will come—six, a dozen —to sleep
inside their bodies? And don’t you hear
the goldenrod whispering goodbye,
the everlasting being crowned with the first tuffets of snow? The pond
vanishes, and the white field over which
the fox runs so quickly brings out
its blue shadows. And the wind pumps its bellows.
And at evening especially,
the piled firewood shifts a little,
longing to be on its way.

For @thrillist NY/Boston/Philly, I share seven new ideas for a late summer getaway, including a historic surfing oasis in Maine, a riverside resort in the Catskills, a chic beach shack on the South Jersey Shore, and a Long Island gem on the Peconic Bay. Plus, plenty of tips on nearby activities, car-free travel options, and budget-friendly accommodations. Link in bio! 🌊☀️ #summeraintoveryet #getaway #thrillist

Beautiful celebration of my Uncle Cliff today. We are so lucky to have you in our lives. Happy 90th birthday! 🩵

Can’t believe it’s been 10 years since @ecniv

Can’t believe it’s been 10 years since @ecniv and I lived on the North Fork. I love bringing the kids here and sharing our past life with them. On this trip, we got to meet some of the creative locals who are reimagining timeworn hideaways and ever so carefully preserving the NoFo magic. ✨ #greenport #mattituck #southold #li #nofoisthebestfo
