I am still re-living the great memories of my recent visit to Chicago (my first time there and I am obsessed), Manhattan (been there many times and am still obsessed), and New Hope, PA and surrounding areas (first time there too and, yes, you guessed it, I am obsessed). Some highlights:
1) Chicago: went there for a Compass mid-states event. Got to learn some nuggets, see my fave Compass IL/WI manager Jaqueline Lechner and my fave Compass Nashville area regional VP . Got to tour the great city with the best tour guide ever: my Compass Chicago colleague . Got some networking in, spent time and had great meals with colleagues from all over the country, who have become my friends, to name a few: from Houston, from Nashville, .re from the Twin Cities area
2) Manhattan: my husband joined me, and we got to hang out and have dinner with my NY friend and colleague and also toured his beautiful listing in Chelsea. Had breakfast with and toured another NY friend and colleague beautiful listing in SoHo. Bonus: my S Jersey friend and colleague was there too. Visited Compass HQ and got to say hi to the awesome manager there Fritz Frigan (he and Jacqueline Lechner are the best Compass Ninjas group teachers), interrupted meeting for a quick hi and hug while I was at HQ.
3) PA: my husband and I stayed with family in Lumberville and got to tour the surrounding areas and stunning landscapes (including driving by a couple of A List celeb properties), we took a swim in the river, had some pool time, and relaxed.
It was SUCH a great and memorable six days and I will be back to all of the above! It’s so cool seeing different landscapes, architecture, etc. so different from the west coast and San Diego.😊
