2013 travel planning: let’s do this
Over the past week, we’ve asked our Twitter followers to help with our future travel planning, and submit their best bets on where we’re headed in 2013 using the hashtag #LTGoes. From Iceland to Miami, Vancouver to Paris, we’ve had some pretty good travel inspiration thrown our way. Unfortunately, we had already made our decision. As expected, we returned from Switzerland and Ireland and needed something PRONTO to quiet the little voices in our heads! Not the normal ones, the new ones asking us, “what’s next what’s next what’s next?!?!?” Unsurprisingly, we brainstormed possible itineraries for weeks… and maybe let…

hear hear! we’re back from hiatus!
What a coincidence (or not) that our first post in days falls on a #winewednesday! Surely we’ve earned many, many, many glasses over the last week. Thanks to hurricanes and work events and nor’easters, our brains are still in a daze, and thus, can not properly articulate what has been going on in the Lazy Travelers’ universe in the past week. Let’s try to review: Sandy effed up our city. Like, seriously. Though the Upper East Side turned out to be a damage-free bubble, both of our offices and many of our friends were without power and heat for all…

an announcement! (yes! another one!)
In a week full of exciting announcements for The Lazy Travelers, we have one more for our readers and fellow bloggers. In honor of our upcoming trip to Switzerland (which happens to be the very first trip abroad that we’ve taken together since launching this little blog), we’re hosting our first ever contest! Do you want to see the romantic yodeling through the Alps? Or perhaps you’d like to see how many pictures of the wino we can capture in her mink hat? (Yes, she has a mink hat). Is there a hostel where you want us to sleep, or a restaurant…

official travel announcement!
We’ve been trying to figure out a way to say this eloquently… but our brains aren’t functioning properly, and really, eloquence isn’t our thing, so: WE’RE GOING TO SWITZERLAND, BITCHES. How did this happen? In typical Lazy Travelers fashion, we spent the morning emailing each other about our hangovers as a result from last night’s business dinner. When what to the wino’s wandering eyes should appear, but an email about airfare discounts to Europe! From there, the events rapidly unfolded: a flurry of emails back and forth about possible destinations, quick check with the hubs (he’s like, our unofficial business…

the wino gets an extreme home makeover
I’m extremely happy to announce that as of Monday afternoon, I officially have my own little slice of heaven on the Upper East Side. I’m talking my very first studio apartment in the Big Apple! I KNOW, right? Like most New York City apartments, the square footage of my new pied-a-terre isn’t much to talk about. Let me be clear. I’ll be lucky to fit a full-sized bed and perhaps one medium-sized chair in my bedroom/living room/all-purpose area. There’s also a good chance that when winter comes and I’m stuck inside due to the frigid NYC weather, I’ll experience a case…
