My favorite experience last week? Seeing the legendary, crazy Christmas lights in Brooklyn’s Dyker Heights neighborhood! Merry Christmas, everyone…

The Via Amerina is an ancient Roman road that brings you from Assisi to Rome, passing through the rolling hills of Umbria and walking through small Italian towns…

Looking for an exquisite place to stay in Playa del Carmen? My recommendation: the wonderful, luxurious beachside Grand Hyatt Resort in the heart of Playa.

The second part of my walk along the ancient Via Amerina to Rome. We’re now in Latium, getting closer to the papal audience in Rome, our final destination.

23 flights, 25 major cities, around 85 different beds – it was a busy year, even though I only visited six countries. Here are my 2016 travel highlights:

If you’re traveling on a budget and are visiting Brighton, I highly recommend the YHA Hostel Brighton. A fabulous new hostel located right by the beach!

Surprise – I’m in England! I will be spending the week in sunny Brighton on England’s south coast, a town that I’ve visited dozens of times but can’t seem to get enough of…

The highs & lows of August 2017 – Including a family visit to Germany, a quick trip to Berlin, and my biggest travel challenge yet: The 500-mile Camino de Santiago hike.

Visiting the medieval town Mdina in Malta felt like stepping back in time! The well-preserved historic town still feels like hundreds of years ago!

Being on the road 365 days a year, we have stayed at some of the world’s best, and worst, hotels. Our Hotel Tip of the Week series offers accommodation recommendations for both budget and luxury hotels we have stayed in and personally recommend. This week: Hotel Elysée, Midtown Manhattan New York.
