InterContinental Hotel, Cartagena de Indias, Bolivar, Colombia

Cartagena couldn’t have been more different than Bogota. And wow was I happy to have landed here for 4 nights. Love Cartagena. Culture, food, cocktails, history, architecture, nightlife, beaches, boats, and so much more. Why had I never been here before? I couldn’t answer that question. But who cares – I was teeming with excitement […]

JW Marriott, Bogota, Colombia

24hrs in Bogota. That’s all the time we needed to get the most out of this city. I had heard differing opinions before visiting, and I have to admit: nearly all of them were accurate, as juxtaposing as they sounded. The JW Marriott was a lovely oasis separated from the bustling city life, which I […]

Mom chose well, and wisely in advance, as during Thanksgiving weekend it seemed all of LA wanted to stay with Terranea. […]

I honestly didn’t think I’d be making this trip again. Exactly 12 months later. But alas, visiting my grandfather brings such great joy to me, I felt beyond lucky to be seeing him, even if it was only for 24hrs. Rachel warned me Terminal 6 sucked, but I still wanted to get there early for […]

Josie’s, Winchester, England UK

I hadn’t been back to England in 9 years. That sounds like a really long time. But since my father now has a home in Winchester, just outside of London, it only seemed right to visit on “our way back” from Iceland. Winchester is the quintessential London suburb, an epitome of British culture. I jested […]
