Whatever form Santa takes for me now at [age redacted], I hope he’s sometimes taking a moment to hang on the roof of my apartment building and that he’s proud of me for watching a show about murder at a luxury resort while looking after my gut health with friends. Today, I’m proud of you for reading the newsletter. It’s filled with holiday packages, from the blend of modern luxury and no-frills Western charm in Kalispell, Montana, to our favorite TikTok recipes, to an opportunity to stay in a replica of the McCallister house from Home Alone, to must-have hiking gear, all the way to the best advent calendars that include wine and spirits (cheers to that). With that, I’ll leave you to it, affix my snowshoes, and walk North until I find real snow.

I’m referring, of course, to foie gras and authentic old Western charm that makes you feel like it’s just you and the tumbleweeds. Kalispell, Montana is all about feeling like you’re far from the rest of civilization, but still with the option to live fancy. An old rockabilly saloon town right near Glacier National Park with a ton of history and divey charm, Kalispell also has a ton to do. And did we mention there are wild horses? Cut to me singing “Wild Horses” at karaoke night at a dive bar in Kalispell while all the locals groan and roll their eyes.
