Exploring the Backyard I’ve mentioned in the past that it’s a shame I don’t explore more of my home country. It’s a feeling of safety that’s keeping me booking overseas trips rather than venturing into my backyard, which will “always […]

Possibly one of my favorite destinations in Europe, Portugal ended up delivering on all my favorite counts – culture, food and weather. I’m currently planning a second trip to explore the beautiful cities of this Iberian gem – this time […]
I’m surprised it took me this long to visit our northern brothers in Canada. Just a 1.5-hour plane ride and we landed in Montreal, which was experiencing more beautiful weather than NYC at that time. The same cannot be said […]
