Hey I’m Carrie – Glad you found me on this side of the internet. I’m one part travel nerd (chasing those Instagram-worthy resorts & restaurants) and one part eldest daughter – Type A all the way – 39-year old millennial who wants to find all the cool shit to do, see, and eat .. up and down the coast of Mexico and on the West Coast.
An itinerary hates to see me coming.
My husband and I are suckers for infinity pools, rooftop restaurants, an epic spa and we use our drone and iPhone to capture it all. Use Points and Miles where we can, so we can travel bigger and more often. Over the years – we have stayed in our fair share of truly incredible, breathtaking boutique properties, have explored hidden gem excursions and dined at some stunning places.
But with that, also comes some duds ... The busted ones. The ones that make you question …
"Wait, I swear it looked different online…"
We have all been there. The reality is … you sometimes get catfished by what you see on social media.
That’s why I started Boutique or Busted.
I don’t gatekeep. I share the good, the bad, the great.
