The RueBaRue App: Travel planning done right

New-York-City

If there is one thing that makes me cringe most is travel planning. Don’t get me wrong; I love to travel to new destinations and discover sights I’ve long had my eye on. But from where do I go to how do I go, there is always a bridge to gap. While an enriching experience […]

29! A Gatsby birthday to remember

Last Friday was my birthday. I’ve dreaded the day like none other, for it’s my last year in the 20s. Last year I can say I’m just a gal in her twenties. Last year to do all the things I wanted to accomplish before I turn 30. It’s overwhelming to say the slightest, because I […]

Gogobowling at the Bowlmor Lanes Times Square

Between the never-ending Snowmageddon and the brutal Polar Vortex, we’ve had a tough, long winter! Which is why we went bowling, to celebrate the arrival of spring (go away snow!) and inaugurate 2014 with the first Gogobot NYC event. We put the ugly snow shoes away, and got our fancy bowling shoes! We chased the […]

Live on the Peter Greenberg Worldwide Radio Show

I first met Peter Greenberg in March of 2012, when I attended a panel he was speaking at, called Careers in Travel Media. I approached him at the end to introduce myself and to ask him advice on breaking into the industry. This was in the early days of my travel/ digital journalism and I […]

Street art at its best: murals of Williamsburg

Forget about the factories turned lofts, the whimsical coffee shops and the stylish boutiques; in Williamsburg, street art is what all the rave is about.

An Angelys Balek Fashion Sketch Session

Not too long ago, I had the chance to play dress up again in front of an illustrious group of illustrators at the Society of Illustrators here in NYC. Brandon Graham of Would You Rock This? hosted the evening with clothes by fashion designer Angelys Balek. “The urban chic energy of New York combined with the playful sensuality of Thailand is […]

Retro 1920s and Jazzy Cocktails with Gogobot NYC

From Oktoberfest to the 1920s! Here’s a glimpse of the “Retro 1920s and Jazzy Cocktails” Gogobot NYC event I had the honor to host last Saturday evening. Given the cold is upon us, I envisioned a throwback to the 1920s, adorned with large, vintage mirrors, lush, red velvet sofas and grandiose chandeliers, a hidden speakeasy of sorts where […]

The winds of change, inside and out

 As I watch the leaves falling, gracefully dancing into the air, rapidly changing colors and announcing a new season, I can’t help think that so am I. With several trips now behind me, and plenty of change to last me for this year and the next, I thought I would be writing every day, sharing […]

Gogobot NYC celebrates Oktoberfest

Just in time for the arrival of fall, I had the immense pleasure to host my first meet-up as Gogobot Ambassador. Since Oktoberfest has taken over Munich, Germany and New York City, for that matter, we decided there was no better way to catch up than by celebrating German style. We gathered at Radegast Hall […]
