Hi, I’m Laurel. My blog Bay Rosemary is dedicated to travel, local food, arts and culture.
My Content I decided to blog primarily about travel so other women could feel comfortable leaving their state/home to travel. After 2020, I decided to share more about my current city and travel like a tourist at home. Currently based in Salt Lake City, UT, I typically share things to do in the city that are not on trip advisor's top 10 list (no shade). As a former ski instructor, my best strength is teaching and sharing tips to improve your vacations.
Why Bay Rosemary? Well, it is a translation of my name into English. Laurel = Bay, Romero = rosemary.
Bay Rosemary’s primarily female audience is interested in travel, scenic locations, local culture, art, and environmentally responsible products and gear that will improve their lifestyle.

Skiing at Solitude Mountain Resort in Utah is a great way to experience some of the best snow on Earth.

Next, you may want to purchase travel insurance to cover any changes in local ordinances that affect tourists. Be aware, if you choose to visit a country that your home country has issued a travel risk, insurance companies may not cover your trip. During the 2020 pandemic, travelers might have arrived in a country halfway across the world, only to have to go home after a couple of days. Whether you need to replace lost luggage or change your trip entirely, insurance might be able to help.
