Natalie sure is racking up frequent-flier points! The TODAY anchor was in Brazil last week covering the World Cup, and this week she's in Alaska — exploring glaciers, rivers and shoe stores in its capital city, Juneau.

Along with producers Paul Manson and Ray Farmer, Natalie shared highlights from the trip on Twitter, Instagram and Facebook, making those of us stuck in New York utterly jealous (and hot!).

She even shared the tears she shed when Brazil lost to Germany in Tuesday's "crushing defeat."
