I’ve visited Positano twice – once for a single, rushed day trip, and more recently for a longer, magical stay. That first trip simply wasn’t enough. Here is my complete guide to Positano. Plan your trip the right way, so you can truly “pause” and experience the magic that is Positano. Positano. Just the name evokes […]
The Path of the Gods in the Amalfi Coast, or Sentiero degli Dei, is consistently cited as one of the most breathtaking hikes in the world. But as I stood in Positano, looking up at the towering cliffs, I had to wonder, is hiking the Path of the Gods worth it? And more importantly, how […]
The Takeaway If you’re tired of losing half your carry-on space to those annoying internal handle bars, the LEVEL8 Voyageur Carry-On 20″ is a total win. It’s durable enough for a week of skiing in Zermatt and sleek enough for a girls’ weekend in Barcelona. I’ve spent the last decade testing luggage on everything from […]

The takeaway: One day is actually the perfect amount of time. Since the “to-do” list isn’t overwhelming, it’s the ideal spot for a slow-travel reset after a high-energy […]
Before we headed off to hike the mountains of Triglav and explore the vineyards of Goriška Brda, we started our trip with one day in Ljubljana. I’ll be honest, I didn’t know what to expect and wasn’t overly enthusiastic, but one day in Ljubljana was surprisingly refreshing. The takeaway: Ljubljana is a totally walkable city. […]
In October I traveled to Cusco and took a cooking class with Cusco Culinary before setting out on the Salkantay Trek a couple days later. Here’s my honest review of our visit to the market and the cooking class. I love to take cooking classes when I travel, my favorite so far has been Anita’s […]
Most travelers treat Ollantaytambo as a stop over, a quick train ride away from the bucket-list destination we all came to see, Machu Picchu. But I ended up staying in Ollantaytambo for three nights, and I am so glad I did. The town has an ancient, magical rhythm, and as I discovered, an incredible culinary […]
