This summer when I travel to Europe, it will be, I think, the 21st time I’ve crossed the Atlantic, which boggles my brain. What’s most remarkable, though, isn’t that I’ve been lucky enough to travel so often, it’s the fact that the next trip I will be taking will be with my now 21 year-old … Continue reading 21

I ate (and drank) everything
(Let’s call this a throwback Thursday post. I started it last week on my final evening in Rome.) It’s 8:00 in Rome and I’m starting to get hungry.

A few brief thoughts early in a short month
Everyone should have footwear that makes them feel like a rockstar. And friends who remind them how special they are. Seeing my children express their interests is the best part of parenting for me. My excitement for travel remains undiminished. February 2018 is the month in which one of my sons becomes an “adult” … Continue reading A few brief thoughts early in a short month
