I was reading the New York Times over the weekend, and found information about a new website that sure to appeal to people who like to combine a little shopping with their travels. That would be people like me!
Store Adore was started by the former editor at Lucky Magazine, and uses local writers to […]
For most of us, internet access while traveling is a necessity, not a luxury.
I know that I am incredibly frustrated when I’m in a hotel room that has a spotty connection, and I’m simply amazed at the occasional hotel that offers no in-room access at all. It’s always best when it’s free, of […]
With all the emphasis on packing light, whether it’s so you can avoid checking your luggage (if you’re traveling by air) or to just have a little more room (if you’re traveling by car). here’s a handy way to pack a beach towel in very little room — the Lightload Towel.
The “towels” are compressed […]
It’s a good idea, but will it have any impact?
That was my first response, albeit a jaded one, when I heard that the TSA had launched a blog of their own and was interested in hearing comments from the traveling public.
Evolution of Security was rather quietly launched on January 31st, 2008, with five […]
If you have frequent overnight visitors at your home, you can take a page or two from some of the creature comforts of your favorite hotel: Some nice art on the wall, a decent reading light, fluffy towels, and maybe even a chocolate on the pillow.
Here’s another suggestion: a luggage stand.

I took a little spin on a Segway about a month ago, and thought it was great fun! (I’ll be writing more about that experience in an upcoming post.)
So the documentary 10 MPH caught my eye. It’s the story of two friends who make an impulse purchase — of a Segway. They quit their corporate […]
As an airline employee, I frequently get blasted by friends (and sometimes strangers) who have bad travel experiences. Whether it’s on an airplane, at a hotel, or bad weather at the beach, I guess they think I can fix it (I can’t), empathize (I do), or change the bad memory (not likely).
Next time you […]
If you still haven’t gotten a gift for the traveler in your life, you are seriously down to the final hours.
I’ve given you lots of good suggestions over the month, but if you still haven’t found anything that grabbed your attention, I’d hazard a guess it’s because the traveler on your list is one […]
Despite our love for electronics and gadgets, there are times that nothing meets our needs like paper products. Beautiful, rich writing paper that feels so good to the touch. And a quality ink product that feels good in the hand, and seems to flow effortless across the paper. Or maybe an art pencil, with […]
A few years ago I started a subscription to the NY Times (Sunday only) so that I could get the Sunday crossword puzzle the week before my local paper ran it.
I love a lazy Sunday morning, sleepy in, a toasty fire, a cup of coffee, some nice music in the background and the NY […]
