Barnstable Market, Barnstable (Cape Cod), MA USA

We rarely venture to The Cape. It’s a large, sprawling destination I personally know very little of, and perhaps this fact alone is what generally persuades me from going. That and the fact you need to book a place many months in advance, especially if you are going with a family. In January, we booked […]

The Chedi, Andermatt, Swizterland

It was a breath of fresh air to leave the intoxicating heat of Zurich and head into the Swiss Alps, literally and figuratively.

Winchester Hospital, Winchester, MA USA

9 months of patiently waiting. They were filled with excitement, anxiety, numerous nights of ensuring there were no monsters under our 2 year old’s bed, navigating – and getting – sick from our 2 year old who loved bringing germs home from daycare, and of course, constantly needing to concern ourselves with covid. Needless to […]
