The fastest way for me to get to know a city is through my stomach. Yea, I know. Weird sentence. Basically what I mean is that I love to learn about a city through the food I can find there. Learning about Madrid has been…well…interesting. I have mixed feelings...

Anyone who knows me (or has read this blog for longer than five minutes) knows I love to eat. I’ve become passionate about food because I think the cuisine of a city or country is one of the best way to immerse yourself in the culture of that particular destination. As you...
Happy Memorial Day! On this national holiday intended to honor our troops, I thought it might be night for me to highlight a hotel here in our nation’s capital. Last week I celebrated my birthday by doing the two things I love most – eating and exploring hotels!
