It’s not often that I come all the way uptown above 110th street, but when I do I really enjoy every moment. The long commute makes it feel like a day trip, and thus makes the experience even more special. One of my favorite places in the City is The Nicholas Roerich Museum . The [...]

Between union square, lower east side, park avenue and upper west side there is such a world of difference it is truly fascinating. From the people populating these neighborhoods, to the types of restaurants and [...]

Crimea is one of the most beautiful places I’ve ever been to. It’s truly magnificent with it’s landscapes, mountains and beaches. When you drive through Crimea, every corner you turn opens up a view even more spectacular than the last, and the drive up and down Crimea’s winding roads is a real pleasure. The first [...]

Crimea is what they call the “Ukrainian Rivera” spread out along the coast of the Black Sea. It’s a place of amazing beauty, and each little town offers it’s own special “something”.

Sundays are the Farmer’s Market, and every other week during the Winter, there is a great antique market. Interestingly enough, six years later, it’s still one of my favorite [...]

Sometimes there are bands playing outside, and light installations are exhibited on the streets.

Taipei is a place full of smells. Sometimes I walk down the street in a new city and I catch a whiff of something that instantly reminds me of Taipei. There are so many smells- sweet and pungent, street food being prepared, and some completely unknown smells that while I lived in Taipei for 4 [...]

Seoul is one of those great cities you can keep on discovering for weeks on end and never tire of. It has so much to offer, so many different neighborhoods and districts, parks, shopping, a huge variety of food, and…….. kimchi!

There is not a whole lot to do in Islamorada, which sometimes turns out to be a really good thing. We came here for the weekend, just to get away and relax. Relax we did -we were in bed by 10 pm every evening. The first day we visited the famous Robbie’s marina, a [...]

Toronto is one of those cities that makes you want to be more “green”, healthier, friendlier to the planet and more polite to strangers. Every time I visit here, I am a whole lot more conscious, polite and drawn to recycle when I return home. There is a good recycling program in place in the [...]
