About Seven Seas and Winter Trees

Hey there, I'm Margaux!

I've always been curious about the world — especially when it comes to trying new foods and learning how other people live. That curiosity turned into a love for travel, and over time, I realized that exploring doesn’t have to be expensive or far away. With a little creativity and planning, it’s totally possible.

​

These days, I’m married and we have three adorable (and demanding) cats — so travel looks a little different now. But with careful planning, we still make it work. Whether it's a weekend road trip or a short stay somewhere new, I believe every adventure counts.

​

Each month, I try something new — a recipe, a place, a skill, or just a different way of looking at things. And those small experiences have led to some of my biggest moments of growth.

This blog is where I share travel tips, stories, and inspiration to help you explore more — no matter your schedule or budget. You don’t need a long vacation or a far-flung destination to have a meaningful experience. Sometimes, all it takes is a weekend and a bit of curiosity.

And if you're planning a bigger, splurge-worthy trip — don’t worry, I’ve got you covered there too.
