Travel Diaries: what I wore to Spain

We traveled to Spain with the kids and thoroughly enjoyed our trip. The weather was warm during the day and cool at night. Best way to pack would be to check the forecast before you go and pack accordingly. I picked brighter colors and prints, especially for Barcelona as it is a city inspired by Gaudi. Spain has some of the most incomparable architecture. … Read More Travel Diaries: what I wore to Spain

Backpacking with kids through Spain

We recently went on a trip to Spain with the kids. We found some super cheap tickets from New York but this airline would not allow anything besides a carry on or there would be an extra charge.

My personal favorite was our stay at Dusai. It is a small resort near the famous tea gardens. I wore a kimono that was very similar to the sold out Zara … Read More Travel diaries- tea gardens in Bangladesh and quick stop in Doha

Travel diaries- Puerto Rico

Being born and raised in NYC, I was bound to have some close Puerto Rican friends growing up. There’s a saying, there are more Puerto Ricans in New York than in Puerto Rico. I was exposed to the delicious foods, fast music and culture of family and love for dancing. My friends would always talk about how beautiful the island was with its lush … Read More Travel diaries- Puerto Rico
