On the Supremacy of the Bed and Breakfast {Gadling}
Jun 25th 2011 1:14PM I actually do love B&Bs and did a whole roadtrip myself last October where I only stayed at B&Bs. I have a dream to open one myself one day when I retire from full time travel. Haven't decided on a place yet but always had that dream. All that being said, they aren't perfect....they are just darn close to.
Is Providence, Rhode Island the Country's Most Creative City? {Gadling}
Jun 24th 2011 11:53AM Arguably, I'm biased since I grew up in New England. I've always loved Providence. It is a hot bed for artistic and creative people and those who want to experience the byproducts of such a crowd, then again - so is a lot of the North East in my experience. Perhaps all the beautiful vistas and towering mountains make a creative melting pot a foregone conclusion.

The Problem with New York's new Eataly {Gadling}
Nov 18th 2010 3:13PM Thanks David, for being honest about the drawbacks. I visited Eataly just after it was opened and managed to live through the fray to purchase a sandwich. In all fairness, the sandwich was amazing. But the experience itself, gave me a migraine.
I wonder, if after the insanity dies down, Eataly will look and feel more like it was meant to. Or perhaps, it was a bad call.
I'm just thankful the sandwich I did have was so terrific.

Remembering the magic of domestic travel {Gadling}
May 13th 2010 8:13PM I'm definitely in the domestic travel camp too!! (While still acknowledging the importance of overseas travel.) Because I think it is important to know one's own country first, before one ventures to others. I also think that even though the US is younger than other countries, we nonetheless have important history and natural resources here that should be discovered and enjoyed and learned from. Just as much as England or Asia or France, etc.
