Sunset Sunday – Zadar, Croatia

When Anita Mac started telling me about the sunsets from Croatia and specifically Zadar, I wanted to see them. Thankfully she agreed. I met Anita during the New York Times Travel show and we chatted over a travel blogger dinner meet-up. I am glad we talked sunsets, because now I can share one from this […]

A Spring Lake Summer Surf Session

As a New Yorker, I am not supposed to be a fan of New Jersey. But truth be told,  I learned to surf at the Jersey Shore and I am a fan. My first time paddling past the break was in Spring Lake, a beach where I spent seven straight summers.  I had some good […]

Postcard – The Beijing Commute

When I traveled to Beijing, China for work more than a few years back, my commute to the office traveled straight through Tiananmen Square. Every morning I passed the Forbidden City.  It was one of my favorite moments of the day and one morning I took my camera. But what may have been more impressive then […]

Sunset Sunday – A Stop for a Holiday In(n) Mazatlan

Next week I’ll be starting another holiday Mazatlan. It will be a special holiday too. I am heading to Mazatlan for Carnival. I’ve heard the celebration is the third largest in the Americas (Rio, New Orleans are 1,2), now I’ll finally know first hand. Therefore as part of my preparation I reviewed my images from […]

A Little Beach Time in Yelapa, Mexico

South of Puerto Vallarta and only accessible by boat, Yelapa can be a little off the main tourist trail. Yet, the beach town popular as a boating excursion, does fill up midday with visitors. Most spend time at the beachfront talapas enjoying an afternoon lunch and some refreshing cocktails or cervezas. I know I joined them.

Sunset Sunday – A Snowy Return to Beaver Lake, PA

I spend plenty of time in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania. My family lives there and it makes for a great escape from the city.  I visit each and every season and honestly enjoy them all. I also captured a few sunsets over the years. This winter, over Christmas Break, after a fresh snowfall I […]

Punta Cana – An All-Inclusive Beach Town in the Dominican

Punta Cana – An All-Inclusive Beach Town in the Dominican

The all-inclusive.  Certain tourist destinations are built on the premise and Punta Cana, Dominican Republic is one of these resort “paradises.” And whether you like them or don’t like them, (they do provide value for certain travelers) in the freezing temperatures of winter I am guessing you can be easily convinced to trade places with […]

My Fourth January Anniversary

My Fourth January Anniversary

I started this post on January 5th. I sat down and stared at my decorated Christmas Tree with a cup of coffee reflecting on my 4th anniversary of freedom. Yes, four years ago, on January 5th, I left my cubicle and walked out of the Wall Street world  (thanks to the economic downturn the world […]
