[This article was written by our Alpha Kappa Alpha guest writer Victoria Mason]

It goes without saying that once you’re a part of a line you have a bond for LIFE. Whether it’s graduation, a wedding or even your first pregnancy, your line sisters are there to support you no matter what.

That support may not always come in a physical form; given that your Ace moved across the country to pursue her dreams or your Live-Five is a nonstop workaholic. But that’s why you all work hard to plan vacations for rekindling that sisterhood you know and love so deeply. A getaway from your everyday life grants you an opportunity to refresh with some of the closest people to you. The beautiful thing about your line is there’s no other group of people on this planet like you, so here are several unique getaways that may be the perfect fit for you and your girls.

Go Cozy in Vermont
Tired of the tropical getaways? Try going to a remote, cold location this winter like Vermont. I’m sure you’re asking yourself, what the heck is in Vermont? Not much but ski lodges and good people, which is all you need! Why not grab the girls, pull out the matching snuggies and sip bottomless mugs of cocoa while binging on chick flicks. It sounds simple, but sometimes the simplest vacations can be the most memorable.

Go Wild in New Orleans

Go Luxurious in Dubai

Now on the other hand, if you’ve got money to blow take a trip to Dubai. Can you say perfect Instagram backgrounds? This city screams money and is a true treasure to embrace. It’s a bit pricey, (and by that I mean pretty pricey), but the experience here is definitely unforgettable. You can also visit Ferrari World while you’re out there. Yes, they have a Ferrari World amusement park.

Go Sentimental in Your University’s city

Take it all back to where it began; where your chapter was founded and where your unforgettable bonds were made. Plan your next getaway back to the University where you crossed for the ultimate vacation down memory lane. Visiting your old dorms, Greek plots and sorority houses is ideal for any line’s vacation. There’s no better way to feel connected with your line sisters and chapter than to go back and visit where it all began.
