Uniworld Boutique River Cruises are some of the best in the ever-more-crowded river cruising industry, so naturally FKGuy and I needed to experience it firsthand. I chose Uniworld’s Enchanting Danube. In our house vacation planning goes something like this: Me: I’m going to book us on (insert great vacation). Is […]
After a restful night’s sleep on a horribly uncomfortable bed, we made our way to breakfast where we met some of our fellow travelers for day two of Two Days in Munich. Uniworld had about seventy people on our pre-cruise tour, so we met many people before we even got […]

Last year, my travel agency had a contest, and whoever booked the most Norwegian cruises within a particular time frame won a cruise to Cuba (and I won!) I am not one to turn down a free cruise, so off we went, on the four-night Norwegian Sky cruise from Miami […]
“Which is the best airline?” or “Is [Insert Airline Name] the worst? I’ve heard bad things…” These are common questions from my clients, particularly when planning vacations that include long-haul flights.

“I’ll just pick up a few chocolates as gifts for my friends,” I thought, in advance of our day-with-no-plans in Bruges. As we wandered the quaint, canal-lined streets of Bruges, we meandered into shop after shop after shop, all filled with beautiful, delicious looking, chocolate masterpieces.
In case you missed it, I was recently featured on Inside South Florida, on The CW. I sat down with Dave Aizer to talk about all things travel. From family trips to great getaways, I can help you plan the adventure of a lifetime.
