Welcome to On The Map
He!!o
Are you having enough fun?!
On The Map is about enjoying the journey and sharing the best discoveries along the way. Join us to feel connected, uplifted, and inspired about the goodness life has to offer. Such as…
the embrace of New England in every season, antique soda bottles, espresso. cooking utensils, fancy glassware, manhattans, the warmth of strangers on substack. ice cold dirty martinis x piping hot french fries. a sprawling literary fiction novel, après ski, ramen noodles, kids, husbands. hotel key cards, just shucked oysters x effervescent anything, lifelong friendship, a page turning thriller, an in flight meal.
OTM is a weekly publication, with a new post emailed directly to your inbox on Thursday mornings. (But sometimes Monday, too).
welcome. stay awhile!

🍇 ABOUT THE AUTHOR
I live with my husband and our two young sons — Camden is 5 and Ryder is 2. I grew up on Cape Cod, New England in various locations has always been home. I lived in Boston and Newton for many years before (reluctantly) retreating north to (yes it’s glorious) suburbia.
I am 40 years old. 1984 to 2024 baby. What a time.
My favorite book is The Goldfinch by Donna Tartt. My desert island album is Graceland by Paul Simon. My favorite Taylor Swift song is 22. Everything will be alright if you keep me next to youuu.
