Around the World – Venice

Posted on 15 February, 2017 by Tina

Around 2003, I’d joined an on-line travel website, where you could post photos & tips, write about your travel experiences, ask questions of fellow travelers and even meet up with several travelers.  Truth be told, I haven’t logged onto that website in a very long time, but I did manage to make several friends on … Continue reading »

Chiang Mai Sojourn

Posted on 4 January, 2015 by Tina

Thursday morning was my day trip to Chiang Mai via Bangkok Airways.  After hearing the horror stories of cab drivers in Bangkok, and after dealing with the horrible cab drivers in Vietnam, I was dreading hailing a cab.  N. had already said that he thought the cab fare shouldn’t be more than 300 Thai baht.  … Continue reading »

Calgon,Take Me Away!

Posted on 11 January, 2014 by Tina

Do you remember that commercial?  (If you do, you’re showing your age!)  A long soak in some Calgon bath salts definitely takes me away for a limited amount of time, but certainly never far enough away! With the start of the new year and the knowledge that I have an additional THREE more days of … Continue reading »

Happy Thanksgiving!

Posted on 28 November, 2013 by Tina

In all honesty, Thanksgiving is my second least favorite American holiday, after Halloween.  While everyone else may have memories of friends and family getting together sitting around the dinner table enjoying a fabulous feast and interesting banter, mine are nothing like that.  My family memories consist of everyone getting together, eating, arguing, laying around watching … Continue reading »

Interesting Update (A.K.A. Does Anyone Really Listen?)

Posted on 27 June, 2013 by Tina

The weather was beautiful in San Francisco yesterday.  I even wore a nice spring dress with heels, although that was mainly because one of the big wigs from the corporate office was coming in and several of us had to meet with her.  Usually when the weather is gorgeous (i.e. warm, but NOT windy), my … Continue reading »

The Truth Is…

Posted on 12 March, 2013 by Tina

I was always meant for Paris and Paris was always meant for me.  I tried to tell myself that Italy better suited me.  I even tried to find my spirituality in Bali.  Now that I’m here again, I realize that Paris is my one true love.  She’s neither broken my spirit or my heart, and … Continue reading »
