With its world-famous, record-breaking skyscrapers and hundreds of sights and sounds to experience, Dubai is one of the trendiest destinations in the world. It comes as no surprise, then, that over 16 million international visitors visit this city each year. If you happen to be one of the many people interested in taking a trip […]
On Oman’s Frankincense Trail with Anantara Al Baleed
Frankincense was once the ancient world’s most prized commodity. A type of resin that comes from the sap of the Boswellia Sacra tree that grows almost exclusively in present day Oman’s southern Dhofar region, Frankincense has been used for thousands of centuries. The ancient world’s extensive use of frankincense in embalming and rituals catapulted it […]
The Perfect 3-Day Weekend in Oman’s Jebel Akhdar
In November 1986 a helicopter landed in the untouched wilderness of Jebel Akhdar, Oman. That helicopter delivered Diana, Princess of Wales and Prince Charles to an area of Oman that, at that time, was only accessible by donkey or foot. The royal couple spent six hours there with Prince Charles painting the canyon scene in […]

A Luxe Adventure in Israel’s Negev Desert
It’s all adventure in the Negev Desert, but leave it to us to find a little bit of luxury even in the most undeveloped area of Israel. From rappelling down 1000 foot cliffs to mountain biking on old camel caravan trails, I knew the Negev was going to push me to my thrill seeker limits. […]
Boutique Urban Cool: Brown Beach House Tel Aviv
When a glass of Champagne is in my hand within seconds of stepping foot in the door, it’s a pretty good indication I’m going to have a great stay. And that was definitely the case at the new boutique-urban-cool Brown Beach House Tel Aviv, sister hotel to the Brown Tel Aviv. Actually, it was my […]
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 […]
Israeli Wine: From Mines to Vines
