Round Table Room at The Algonquin Hotel, NYC, NY USA

It’s hard to be excited about a trip to New York City when it’s only for a few hours… leave on the train at 9am from Boston, back home by 11:15pm. My mantra for these types of trips is always “just make sure it’s worth it.” No pressure, of course…. On top of presenting to […]

The Café, Taj Hotel, Boston, MA USA

Finishing up the work week enjoying lunch with my grandmother – the plan sounded perfect for a Friday afternoon. Yaya, as we call her, was visiting for the month from Palm Beach and staying at the Taj Hotel in Boston on Arlington Street. Due to my traveling, I hadn’t seen her for over a year, so it […]

Yangshuo Resort Hotel, Yangshuo, China

The ride from Guilin to Yangshuo was an easy hour and a half.  A gorgeous hour and a half. An hour and a half that we wished had been slowed by traffic. Sprawling karst formations, lush greenery, bountiful farm land… it was wonderful being in the heart of China’s most beautiful countryside, especially coming from […]
