    Tuscany Has My Heart

    Cold, wintry weather has me dreaming of my summer days in Tuscany. It has always been a dream of mine to spend some time in Tuscany, Italy, and 2023 was the year we finally made it. The rolling hills, gorgeous landscapes and hilltop villages of Tuscany were all the...
  • Hua Hin Cafes and Beyond

    Hua Hin, Thailand has so much to offer travellers. Whether you’re a backpacker or an adventurer, a family tripper or a luxury vacationer, there will be something for you there. You don’t have to stay long. Our six-night stay at the Sheraton Hua Hin Resort & Spa was more...
  • Our Hua Hin Family Holiday, a Great Escape for All

    Unfortunately, I am not the type of person who can sit by a pool reading for six days straight… especially not with a three-year-old constantly dragging me off in different directions. However, I really wanted to try this Hua Hin family holiday because it was a super deal from...
  • Two Nights and Cool Cafes in Bangkok

    We have been to Bangkok so many times that we never do anything touristy… One day my kids will have to go there (when they are all grown up) and visit the temples, Grand Palace, night and floating markets… All the things that tourists do. When I go, however,...

    Rawa, a Rustic Island Paradise in Malaysia

    Ciao for Now! A farewell NYC Brunch

    Farewell to New York City (NYC)! My last article about my all-too-brief trip to NYC will be on food…specifically breakfast! I love breakfasts and brunches out. So our farewell to NYC brunch was something I had to write about. I’m not one of those “ladies who lunch”. I’m more of a...
  • A Manhattan Bridge Walk

    I think most of us who have visited New York City (NYC) may have done the iconic Brooklyn Bridge walk. We even made the kids do it with us one time (we weren’t too popular that day). It was similar to the day we made them walk across another iconic bridge, the...
  • Brooklyn Bridge

    Brooklyn Wanders

    Whenever I think of Brooklyn, I think of Kate Spade, you know “Cobble Hill’, “Cedar St”, “Cameron St” … or maybe, it’s because I’m slightly obsessed with handbags (and shoes). However, whilst I’ve heard of these places by living my life vicariously through handbags – interesting idea – I’ve...

    DDS in NYC – A Trip Out to Woodbury Common

    What do you do on your first day in New York City (NYC)? Shop of course! Okay, really we had an excuse. We had flown into NYC on Sunday during the day and had to stay awake until bedtime so we spent the rest of the day walking and walking and walking....
