Wine Tasting with NatureBox in the Napa Valley

October 1, 2015 by DaveLeave a Comment

Arguably the Napa Valley is the most well-known wine region in the entire country. I am fortunate to spend significant time in the area. In my "other" life I am a wine writer focusing on the Napa Valley. I'm working on a project in which I am trying to visit, taste with and write about nearly all wineries and commercial producers in the Napa Valley. This project has also opened up some additional wine writing gigs, recently for the Four Seasons … [Read more...]

Taking Advantage of Bright Sun in Belfast Before the Rain Sets In

September 21, 2015 by DaveLeave a Comment

Upon landing in Belfast, Northern Ireland (or as some might say, 'Nord Iron') I was pleasantly surprised to see some sun peeking through the clouds. Coming from bright sunny days in Spain this past week with warm temperatures I had braced myself for brisk cloudy days and bone chilling nights. I felt welcomed on the bus ride into town; a gentleman facing me in another seat kept smiling my way - talking to the lady he was with and nodding in my … [Read more...]

Baja California’s Hidden Gem: Loreto

August 27, 2015 by Jacki UengLeave a Comment

Loreto, located on the Sea of Cortez in Mexico's Baja California, was one of famous oceanographer, Jacques Cousteau's favorite places in the world. He first visited Loreto in 1980 and appropriately called it "The Aquarium of the World". Yet, it remains a hidden gem to many people even to their 'next door neighbors' in the United States. Loreto is merely a 2.5-hour flight from Los Angeles. Alaska airlines offers nonstop service from LAX, … [Read more...]

Pittsburgh: Inspiring Awe and Nostalgia

July 23, 2015 by Marianne Ruane1 Comment

Visit Pittsburgh. It’s a vibrant city with fantastic views and all kinds of easily accessible ways to see them, a sports legacy to envy, and vital American history.

In the last 50 years or so Pittsburgh has orchestrated a miraculous environmental transformation. Ride to the top of the … [Read more...]

Three Fabulous Colonial Cities in Mexico

July 8, 2015 by Claudia Tavani2 Comments

Mexico is a huge country, that well deserves a visit. I have been there 3 times and for as much as I try to explore a bit more every time, I am never quite done with it. It is one among the few countries I keep going back to, like Peru or Cuba, because it just has everything I can possibly look for when I travel. Amazing archeological sites, lush nature, beautiful beaches, deserts, interesting indigenous communities, delicious food and gorgeous … [Read more...]
