Sarah Dandashy, Founder Ask A Concierge

February 16, 2018 by DaveLeave a Comment

I first discovered Sarah's Ask a Concierge website when reviewing the list of speakers at the annual Los Angeles Travel and Adventure Show (held every February).

Cirque du Soleil’s “O” – A Wondrous Water World

February 16, 2018 by Tom BentleyLeave a Comment

I have to release the joke from the top: Cirque du Soleil’s “O” is a wholly immersive experience.

We were in the middle of the hot and humid Cambodian jungle. Maybe it was just exhaustion from a long day of exploring Angkor Wat? I figured if we just rested a while, we’d be OK. Then 💩 happened. Literally. The next few hours were spent assisting him back … [Read more...]

Dreaming of My Own Private Island in Aruba

February 7, 2018 by Allison TibaldiLeave a Comment

Aruba is a Caribbean gem. The white sand beaches and crystal-clear blue water make it a legitimate standout. If you thought the Caribbean was all lush tropical foliage, you’re in for a surprise when you see Aruba’s desert landscape. Aruba is arid, but it’s loaded with stunning floral eye candy. Its famed Divi Divi trees act like a natural compass, dipping graciously in a southwesterly direction, given a push by Aruba’s steady trade winds. … [Read more...]
