What do you get when you mix a group of savvy travel content creators, a bunch of fantastic businesses (many minority and woman-owned), and stunningly gorgeous early autumn weather? An absolutely amazing press trip! Grateful to have partnered with Visit KC to bring together five outstanding creators plus our own founder Beth Santos for a weekend of discovery, sisterhood, and endless collaboration in perhaps one of the most surprising cities to date! We loved going "beyond the BBQ" to create content about unique places like the Latina- and indigenous-owned Café Corazón owned by Dulcinea Herrera, and chatting with co-owner Kemet Coleman at the first Black-owned brewery in Missouri, Vine Street Brewing Co. Huge, enormous thank you to Derek Byrne and Jasmyn Franks for all of their hard work putting this press trip together, and to our own Lauren Mae Cavallero who was working behind the scenes to make magic happen! #VisitKCxWanderful #VisitKC #KansasCity #SmallBusiness #Missouri #WomanOwned #BlackOwned
