One question we've all asked ourselves at some point in 2020 is:  "How can I make the most of this new #socialdistanced world I live in?"

Much of the world is facing new and uncharted difficulties within their daily home & work routines. Masking up, avoiding hugs, postponing travel, and adjusting as much as possible to all the latest rules and recommendations takes intention and energy. One thing we could all use more of regardless is intentional time outdoors in stillness and solitude, breathing in the fresh air.  Many have taken the path of least resistance this year...

Let your mind wander off to that favorite place of yours you had as a kid. The place you felt you could really be yourself. The place you felt safest and most at home. The place you could come to life exploring. The place where the world seemed to slow down and life was simple. When you think of THIS place you find your mind carried away with wonder and all of the sudden a few minutes have passed. When you think of THIS place, your memories seem to play as a slow motion reel on an old projector screen. Where is THIS place for you? 

For many, THAT place is Seaside, Florida, a favorite thriving coastal community not far west of Panama City Beach.

You're probably familiar with the vintage airstream row in the heart of Seaside, Bud and Alley's epic sunset views... but let's introduce some other nearby favs that may not already be on your restaurant radar! Especially some of the newer joints. Maybe this will give you just one more reason to plan your next vaca. We all need a good solid reminder to hit the reset button and chill from life's business,…

Woohoo! Time for an update on our team impact for Q2 (April - June 2020) ... An exciting season it has been. 2020 is panning out to be a year when we are learning now more than ever, that no matter the inconveniences that life may throw at us, (cough, cough... COVID!) we can still make a difference and continue to find creative ways to bless others. 

 Serving our local community through real estate on 30A allows us to directly distribute 20% profits with the purpose of helping those in need across the globe - currently focusing in Leon, Nicaragua, where we have developed long term friendships and partnerships over the years.
