Located just a 2-hour drive from Milan or 30 minutes from the shores of Lake Como you’ll find the quiet village of Chiavenna. It’s a hidden gem steps away from tourist packed Lake Como nestled in a valley on the northern edge of the region of Lombardy. Chiavenna is rich with mountain views and you’ll […]
Carry-on Approved: Ricardo Beverly Hills Roxbury 2.0
As frequent travelers, we put the miles on our luggage faster than a runner training for the marathon puts the miles on their shoes. And as luxury travel writers, we need luggage that’s durable, mobile and won’t embarrass us with the jet-set crowd we’re often running with. Naturally, we were thrilled when a stylish California-based […]
The Art of Pairing Food and Wine at Cafe Kandahar
I recently ate an 11-course meal. Yes, you read that right – ELEVEN courses. An 11-course wine pairing meal, at that. But when a James Beard multi-time semi-finalist is personally cooking for you and teams up with a sommelier to pair perfectly matched wines that accentuate the food, you eat every last bite. I definitely […]
Burano: The Colorful Island of Lace…And Much More
We’re so tired of hearing people say that you only need one day to see Venice. Sure, in a whirlwind tour you can see the Rialto, Piazza San Marco and take a gondola ride. But you’d be missing out on some of the best parts of visiting Venice, like taking the vaporetto (water bus) over […]
10 Things to Taste in Israel
The food wasn’t at the top of things I was excited about when I was invited to experience Israel. Aside from hummus, falafel and Charlotte turning her nose up at an unappetizing jar of gefilte fish in Zabar’s when she decides to convert in Sex and the City, I really didn’t have a clue what […]
Why I Don’t Like Airbnb
Sorry, but I just can’t get into this Airbnb craze. On occasion I don’t mind renting an apartment with Tim or a friend; I’ve actually written about several that we loved like this one in Berlin and this one in Split. But in general I like the amenities of a hotel stay when I’m traveling […]
5 Things To Do at the Airport During Your Layover
When you spend as much time in airports as I do, airports can become destinations in and of themselves. Even though an encounter with TSA can be hell and other travelers can send me from zen to needing anger management classes in the time it takes to get through the security line, there’s an increasingly […]
Israeli Wine: From Mines to Vines
Most travelers to Israel expect a trip of biblical proportions, and they should. After all, you can visit the Western Wall where the ancient Temple of Jerusalem once stood, the Church of the Holy Sepulcher that stretches over the holiest sites in Christianity – the crucifixion, entombment, and resurrection of Jesus – and the Mount […]
Winter Adventures in Whitefish, Montana
When I’d tell just about anyone where my next trip was, they’d give me the once over to make sure I hadn’t fallen off my rocker while exclaiming: “Why would you go to Montana in winter?!” Did they know something I didn’t? It wasn’t like I was declaring I was trekking solo across the frozen […]
Help Me Decide Where to Move
How on earth do people ever decide where to move when the world is your oyster? Choosing the place that you’ll call home truly affects every aspect of your life: how often you’ll see family and friends, what job opportunities you’ll have, what you’ll do for entertainment, how much money you’ll be able to put […]
