48 Hours of Foodie Heaven in Kauai

For some reason I have never visited the island of Kauai. This August I needed to be in Mexico City and was finding myself low on my year end qualifying air miles with American Airlines, so I decided to do a brief mileage run from Mexico to Hawaii. I had orginally planned to only go…

A great restaurant find on the enchanting island of Korcula, Croatia

We decided on an adventurous itinerary for our drive south to Dubrovnik starting from the island of Vis in order to see as much of the Croatian coastline as possible during our trip.

Morning Farmers Market in Zadar Old Town

A Rainy Winter Saturday in Paris

My day started by enjoying a cup of tea and opening the flat’s window to get a feel of how cool the day might be.

[caption id="attachment_307" align="alignnone" width="629"] Waiting in line[/caption] Many times I’ve walked past the long Falafel lines in the ever hip Marais district of Paris on a Sunday and wondered why someone would wait so long for street food which is not the norm style of dining in France.
