Girls’ Trip: Tuscany 2018

Hey Jetlag Junkies! A couple of weeks ago I had the opportunity to return to one of my favorite Italian destinations: Tuscany! Tuscany is one of my most-requested destinations, so I was excited to try out some new specialty services and get to know a few new local suppliers.

Remarkable Rome Time-Lapse Video

Rome. Few places in Europe are home to so much traveler interest. And why not? Few places in the world have birthed so much history!

Best Place to Visit in Italy

Best Place to Visit in Italy

Ciao, Jetlag Junkies!I’m sure it comes as absolutely no surprise to you that I love Italy. But here’s the thing: There’s nothing particularly original about “loving Italy”.

Don’t You Dare Go To Rome {Without Reading This}

It's summer! WooHoo!! My little girl wrapped up the 2nd grade this week, and we could not be more pumped for sweet summertime. The arrival of summer means my company becomes very mobile. Because my daughter and her friends will literally live in our backyard pool, I spend more time parked on my patio with my Mac on a laptop cooler..........
