Thanks d! Glad you found it helpful- that's what I try for :)

Five Drinks You Must Try in France
Discovering a culture through its food and drink can be just as much fun as exploring the destination itself. We all know that France is known for their haute cuisine, as well as their fashion. Well, there are a few drinks that are extra special finds in France as well. And though champagne is...
Oh, don't get me wrong Poppy, I too love my wine. And Rose on a hot summer eve in Provence sounds perfect. Can I join you?

Rome - It's Not My Italy
You may remember that my first trip to Rome was a bit of a debacle. It wasn't exactly on my list of the Top 5, not even my Top 10 places to return to in Italy. But, then a ridiculous airfare deal just dropped in my lap...and I am not one to say no to anything related to Italy, easily. So, ...
Thanks! I know...I just want a pina colada and some alone time, right there!

Though it has been awhile since I've visited the magical city of Venice, I was reminiscing the other day about the many wonderful things I loved and experienced there. Venice will always hold a special place in my heart for being the first city in Italy I set foot. One could say that Ven...
Thanks. And I have yet to go at Chrsitmas- but can just imagine how special it would be at that time of year. With a dusting of snow, even. Thanks for sharing your list!

Great tip Paula! Thanks for posting it.
