Why CBD Is a Natural Solution for Unwinding During Travel
Let’s be honest – travel can be absolutely exhausting, even when it’s supposed to be fun. Between navigating crowded airports, dealing with flight delays, adjusting to new time zones, and sleeping in unfamiliar beds, what should be an adventure often turns into a stress marathon. You may find yourself lying awake at 3 a.m. in hotel rooms, mind racing about tomorrow’s itinerary while your body refuses to adjust to the local time.

Story, photos and video by Cassie Hepler Getting to Maui, Hawaii for this vacation was like pulling teeth!

Art Car World Bringing Burning Man Vibes to Douglas, Arizona
Story, photos by Cassie Hepler Zooming straight away from my bed and breakfast in Bisbee to Douglas, Arizona is a short half hour ride out of the mountains and relatively easy to find at the newish location of Art Car World at 450 E. 8th St. Street, Douglas, AZ 85607. I met up with Harrod Blank, the brains and brand behind the mission outside and he was excited to share his master plans with me.
