I am craving seclusion. Even after much solitude in social distancing times, I am still desiring an escape from it all. A place where I can truly relax. I imagine you’re feeling the same way, too? Especially you moms and dads who have been cooped up with your children. As normal life makes a slow […]

The situation at hand (cough cough Coronavirus) is changing the travel landscape, perhaps forever. We have quite a few predictions about the future of the travel industry both in the short term and long term. One of those predictions is that domestic getaways will be popular before international travel. Not only that, but it might […]

The next edition in my MT Kitchen series explores a traditional Spanish dish, Arroz Con Pollo! It is a close sister of Paella, a Spanish dish that originated in Valencia. I am a picky eater, improving day by day. I don’t love the seafood in paella, so I opt for a simpler arroz con pollo […]

I have had many quarantine realizations, both personal and business related. I’m sure you’ve had quite a few too! My latest has been that I’ve taken many cooking classes around the world and yet, I don’t practice those skills. Hardly ever do I come home and master the skills or remake the recipes. Shout out […]

The Philippines is an insanely beautiful chain of islands that we merely touched during our 10 day stay. We could island hop for hours, exploring hidden beaches and lagoons, uninhabited islands, and sandbars that come to life only during low tide. It feels like a bucket list destination that contains some of the most magical […]

2019 was an incredible, whirlwind year! I truly embodied a Major Traveler. I stepped foot on to two new continents and 7 new countries. I met many new people, saw World Wonders and World Heritage sites, experienced the magic of Africa and immersed myself in foreign cultures. Most importantly, I had the honor of being […]

I am very serious when it comes to being healthy while traveling. I’m mostly talking about plane travel here, not visiting the hotel gym (because that’s never fun). Staying healthy while traveling encompasses a lot of moving parts. Not only do you need to maintain your health, but you also need to be conscious about […]

Next door to Thailand is a country called Laos and the tiny city of Luang Prabang that I just about fell in love with. Luang Prabang is located in northern Laos and at the intersection of the Khan and Mekong Rivers. The city has an old world charm and a calm that is rarely found […]
