The Best Places to Stay in Bordeaux
Bordeaux. If you’ve ever even so much as browsed the wine aisle at a grocery store, you no doubt know of Bordeaux wine.

The Best Travel Books: True Stories to Armchair Travel Around the World
Some say that people travel to escape life. Well, I say those people are idiots. Travel is about living life. When I do want to escape, I pick up a book (technically I pick up my Kindle Paperwhite loaded with my library of eBooks, but you get the point). Books transport us to another time, […]

Bordeaux in 365 Bottles: February 2020
