traveling to turkey: making a judgment call
As we’re all aware, sometimes, travels just don’t go as planned. This is no new challenge for us, and we’ve gotten pretty good at rolling with the punches. On Sunday, the hubs and I were due to board a flight from Bangkok to Istanbul for one week in Turkey. From touring Hagia Sophia to riding in a hot air balloon over Cappadocia, it was going to be the perfect way to kick off our time in Europe. I’ve long dreamed of going to Turkey. Out of all of our plans, it was one of the places I was most looking…

hostel hopping in new zealand
As you may recall, when the hubs and I first started planning our RTW, Hostelbookers graciously agreed to host us at a few properties in New Zealand and Singapore. Though we’re no strangers to hostels around here, we are getting a little pickier as we get older. We can’t help it! We’ve had more good experiences than bad, but there are some sketchy hostels, and we’ve had the misfortune of experiencing them (cough, Geneva, cough). Fortunately, Hostelbookers makes it seriously easy to narrow your focus and pick a place that best suits your needs—especially if you know how to read the…

style spotter: malaga, spain
BREAKING NEWS: It’s sweltering in NYC. Like, really really hot. And I have to be honest, extreme heat isn’t my thing. My hair will vouch for that. On days like these, all I can think about is sipping a drink with my toes in the sand. I know, I know– I have my trip to Toronto this weekend and my big Eastern European rendezvous with the romantic is only weeks away. But can you really blame a girl for doing a little travel daydreaming on a blistering hot Thursday in New York? I DIDN’T THINK SO. After stalking browsing Mrs O Around…
