It seems like U.S. tourists discovered Portugal in the last year. No matter what social media platform you use, you probably saw an explosion of coverage for this majestic land. The capital city of Lisbon provides a great introduction to the country, with a manageable population of 600,000 people in the city proper. Beautifully tiled buildings, rolling hills, and delicious custard tarts are on every corner. The people are warm and friendly, and … [Read more...]

Malibu Rocky Oaks Estate Vineyards
High on a hillside, a modern Tuscan-style villa claims expansive views all the way to the Pacific Ocean. Following the steep drive up from Kanan Rd. you see some small vineyards on either side. You can also arrive at the villa by air as it has its own heliport. What I saw of the inside of the villa was sparsely furnished, with spacious rooms.

This travel state of limbo has worked well to date, granted nothing is very well … [Read more...]
