China Southern Airlines Business Class Review

The VIP treatment began from the moment I checked in for my China Southern Business Class flight from San Francisco, USA to Guangzhou, China. The 72-hour visa-free transit policy in China makes it easy to fly direct to Guangzhou from the USA. Guangzhou is the ideal hub to start your trip around China or as…

Diary of a Phuket Detox at SALA Phuket Resort and Spa

“For those who have an intense urge for Spirit and wisdom, it sits near them, waiting.” Patañjali said. I had seen beautiful, slick and sexy, photographs of Phuket in travel magazines and all over Instagram before arriving, but it was my very first time there, and anywhere in Asia for that matter. From the moment I arrived I…

Kamalaya Wellness Sanctuary: A Luxury Detox Retreat, Koh Samui

The science of medicine is simple. It begins with an investment at the cellular level with and to everything we know in our hearts to be good. I felt this investment in me from the moment I began to plan my visit to Kamalaya Wellness Sanctuary and Holistic Spa in Thailand for a detox retreat Koh Samui…

Palazzo Victoria, Luxury Hotel in Verona

Lugging my complete collection of Shakespeare book across campus to my weekly class is still one of my fondest college memories. The book weighed a ton, both literally and figuratively. I would hang on every word my professor said, and there are notes in the book which I still have many years later. It was…

St. Nicolas Bay Resort, Crete

There’s something about the light in Greece, it seduces you from the moment you step off the plane. From the early morning dew drop blues, to the midday whites, and all the way into the never-ending infinity pool pinks of the sunsets; the love affair Greece wants to have with you is a compelling one. My…

What to Do in Lucca, Italy: A Local’s Guide

Everyone grows up reading or hearing fairytales; tales of towns surrounded by Medieval walls. What happens inside and outside of these walls is always a fascinating adventure. My visit to Lucca, Italy, proved that fairytales are real, and that mysterious walled towns still exist. No visit to Tuscany should be complete without a visit to…

Rich with history and artistic treasures, Tuscany’s capital Florence is a city that inspires every visitor in a unique way. Florence was at the top of my list during a month-long tour of Italy.

Monaci delle Terre Nere: A Boutique Mount Etna Hotel in Sicily

I found myself in the gorgeous green gardens of a beautiful Etna hotel on the island of Sicily, just shortly after spending time in Corsica, and the contrast was absolutely delicious; literally and figuratively. Not only did Sicily represent the beginning of a month-long (first time) exploration of Italy for me, but I’m part Sicilian…

Casadelmar and La Plage, A Luxury Stay in Porto-Vecchio, Corsica

The island of Corsica is a sweet spot for good reason; floating in prime real estate in the magical Mediterranean waters off the coast of France and Italy. It pulls not only the elements from each, but an incredible history and feeling that blends, dances and exists on its own terms. I fell madly in-love…

Sextantio Le Grotte Della Civita, A Luxury Cave Hotel in Matera, Italy

My first day in Matera, Italy, I wandered the narrow cobbled streets in awe.  Awe of the in-tact history, the charm, the quiet, the unspoiled town, and the authentic Italian moments I witnessed on the streets. I felt at ease, welcomed into the past with an invitation to get lost here.  It came as no…

L’Auberge de Sedona, Arizona

Chances are if you know anything about Sedona, you know that it is said to be an incredibly powerful place. With its four vortexes, crystal shops, energy workers and healers, and magnificent Red Rock country, it is nearly impossible to not feel the magic when you visit.  That magic is exactly what I felt during my…
