Silver Star Cafe, Park City, UT USA

We had the best tourguide in Park City taking us down the slopes during our second day on the mountain. Rachel hadn’t been snowboarding in four years and this was my second time skiing in eight; with Bruce leading us, we had nothing but great snow and zero lines, a perfect re-introduction to the sport […]

The Parish Cafe and Bar, Boston, MA USA

Note to self: when someone tells you “I’m not sure if I can be that helpful,” believe them – and don’t meet them for lunch, meet them for coffee. When I moved to Boston as recent company founder, I needed to network. I started with the organization that everyone told me I needed to be […]

With no time for lunch (besides the delicious looking “exotic” fruits we bought at Eataly) we headed right to Penn […]
