Food Friday: SoBou in New Orleans

Happy February! I’ve decided to write a new weekly post about my second favorite love (after travel): food.  In my opinion, food can be just as transporting as travel and is often times an integral part of learning about a destination.  Unlike some avid eaters, I like to eat...

Sweetest Goodbye

I drove up to New York last weekend to complete stage three of my move and the weekend turned into a bit of a love letter weekend in the city.  I didn’t intend to spend a magical weekend in the city filled with new and old favorite experiences, but that’s...

The 57th Presidential Inauguration of Barack Obama

I wish the story that I have to tell was as dramatic as this title implies but…it’s not. As you know I’ve moved home to the DC area and catapulted myself into DC life during arguably the biggest weekend of the year.  I couldn’t move home without at least...

A Taste of Texas!

After one of the busiest weeks of my life, I’ve finally made it to DC and I must say I’ve had quite the welcome! Last night began the flurry of various inaugural balls and I was fortunate enough to attend the Black Tie and Boots Ball hosted by the...

Big news!!!

Friends!! I have a big announcement to make.  It’s something that has been in the works since around September of last year but hasn’t come to fruition until now due varying factors.  Drum roll please….

Southern Road Trip

It’s no secret that I’ve been craving the South like nobody’s business.  Lucky for me I was able to visit a TON of Southern cities over the Christmas holiday.  I also got the chance to be super geeky and take photos at a few different state lines – one...

Park City, I just can’t quit you!

I bet you can tell which trip was my favorite of 2012.  I literally have not been able to stop talking/writing about the awesomeness that is Park City, Utah! With the Sundance Film Festival right around the corner, please take a second to enjoy my latest piece for SheKnows:...

My top 30 travel photos of 2012

On this last day of the year, I want to reflect on my favorite 30 travel photos of 2012.  I have been blessed to visit SO many new towns and cities and five new states! All of my trips have been incredible experiences that have allowed me to learn...

Holiday Travels

Merry belated Christmas!!  First of all let me start out by saying how happy I am to be at a computer.  I have basically been computer-less since Sunday, December 23rd and although this will prove how dependent I am on my tech toys, I have been going NUTS.  I’ve...

Never forget

For the past few weeks I’ve been feeling somewhat “blah” towards New York.  I’m sure it has to do with the fact that the sun now sets at around 4:30pm and that a day with a high of 45 degrees is considered “warm”.  Whatever the reason, lately I’ve just...
