Thoughts, experiences and adventures from a resident of DelSo aka Delaware Avenue South in Albany, N.Y.
Knowing how much I love fashion, and the seriousness with how I take getting dressed, it should probably come as no surprise that I put a lot of thought into my wardrobe when I travel. The fact that I rent a number of items a month with my Rent the Runway membership can make piecing … Continue reading Das verpacken
Picking up where I left off in Part I, it’s now time to start filling in some more details. One thing I’ve learned with experience is that it’s worth taking the time to do a bit of research before committing to specific dates and destinations.
