Do what you love….TRAVEL! Explore, eat good food (calories shouldn’t count on vacation 😉) and be sure to look down every alley. You never know what beauty you will find at the other end. Apparently we are cat whisperers, if you are too, feed them your leftovers🙏🏻

Santorini has been everything we expected and more. For our last day we had a lazy morning just staring out at the water through the gorgeous Bougainville! In the afternoon we boarded a catamaran for a cruise around the island. We put down the anchor and swam in the Mediterranean and enjoyed a delicious lunch on board. The last part of the trip was yet another stunning sunset. Tomorrow we head to Paros….stay tuned.

Another fantastic day in Santorini. A good breakfast to fuel up. A walk in town and an afternoon tour. We had the most fantastic driver and guide, thank you . They drove us all around the island. Stopping in small villages and getting great history lessons. Not to be missed is the underrated Akrotiri! This ancient civilization was discovered is 1956 and is 1200 years older than Pompeii. Of course the day ended with another amazing sunset. Can’t wait for more adventures tomorrow!

Be among the first to stay at the stunning Conrad Tulum. Their doors recently opened with over 300 hundred water view rooms, 5 pools and 11 restaurants. Drop the kids off at the kids club and make an appointment at the spa. If you’re feeling energetic, checkout the fitness center and maybe take a bootcamp class on the beach.

If you must venture out, I recommend jumping into a few cenotes and visit the Tulum ruins to learn a bit about the Mayan people. While in the area take a drive down to the action of Tulum, walk along miles of the soft sand beach and warm water, eat amazing food and get in a little shopping.

Whatever you do, you won’t be disappointed! Let me know when you are ready to go, paradise is just a short plane ride away!

It’s time for me to brag…. My daughter Jackie spent 2 years and countless hours and trips to Boston designing the public spaces at The Newbury Boston. After many delays and COVID, the hotel has finally opened. So of course we had to take a family trip to see for ourselves. As an added bonus, I get to review it for future bookings. I think the pictures speak for themselves, the hotel is stunning and it’s in a prime location. On the corner of Newbury street and across from the Boston Public Garden. Beautifully restored and reimagined luxury….you will not be disappointed. Let me know when you are ready for me to book you a room for an easy getaway.
