Scrapbooking Weekend
I took Friday off and had a long Easter weekend so I’ve had a chance to work on my travel scrapbooks. I don’t create traditional family scrapbooks – I don’t journal my memories or “pretty” up pages with layers and cut-outs – my albums are no frills. They focus on my photos with a handful […]
Mosaic Vacation Photo Albums
I made the switch to an iPhone a little later than most and the 1st trip I had it on was on the Northeastern Foliage Roadtrip we took in the fall of 2012. I had already been using Instagram but this trip was the first one I really documented somewhat through my phone using Instagram. […]
Travel Tips: Favorites
This is the 1st in a series of travel tips I thought I’d share. From two week to two month trips overseas to quick business trips to destination weddings to weekend getaways, I’ve experienced a lot and learned a lot while on the road and in airports and on trains and subways… ************************************************ As you […]
Favorite Museums
I’ll be heading to NYC in a couple of weeks for a business trip + a few extra vacation days and I plan to visit the the Guggenheim while there and finally see The Met’s Cloisters. It got me to thinking that I have been very fortunate to have already gone to some amazing collections […]

Viva Las Vegas
As I pack for yet another trip, I am reminded that I needed to publish my post on Las Vegas… so here it is! Less than a week after getting back from Chicago I was re-packing my bags & heading the other direction to Las Vegas. This trip was for my other “job” since I […]
Quick Business Trip to Chicago
What a busy month – I have plans every weekend and often during the week till literally June. It started with a quick 2-day business trip to Chicago back in mid April and will continue until I get back from my trip to Cuba at the beginning of June. I did manage to shoot a […]
2012 Travel – Lots of Variety
I love to travel, even if it’s for work (since I don’t travel for work often enough to make me hate it)… and I’m thrilled to see so many upcoming trips on my calendar, all taking place between April & August: > Chicago, mid April – Social Medias Strategies Summit > Las Vegas, end of […]
Getting back to my Cuban roots…
Over the weekend, I booked my trip to Cuba. To Havana (or Habana, the correct spelling) to be specific. I still have family there and can legally visit (my parents left the island in 1968 – and although my sister was born there, I was born in the US, here in Houston). I have wanted […]
