Alaska
Alaska is one of those bucket list destinations that many want to visit. And if you’re in that number, this week’s ezine is for you! I was fortunate to have travelled to Alaska with an extended family group with Princess a few years ago. And we had a great time. We sailed north from Vancouver
Be Intrepid
We had a terrific gathering with Intrepid Travel this week. We were focused on solo travelers – and had solo travelers meet other solo travelers, share travel tips, learn about group trips planned, and maybe suggest other trip ideas. But we also welcomed some couples (and others emailing me who couldn’t attend.) Intrepid is a
Solo Travel is on the Rise

Blood Moons & Your New Renaissance

2018: Thank You. Next! (with homage to Ari)
2018 is almost over. So, with homage to Ariana Grande, and her hit song (“Thank u, next”), it’s time to bid 2018, Thank You. Next! What a year it’s been! At dinner last night, my 12 year old reminded me there’d be an Olympics this year. I had to stop and really think about that.
