I’ve been badged! Check out my latest interview, my Istanbul custom guide and my curated spring guide for NYC. I’m honored to be featured as Gogobot NYC’s first Rockstar of the Month, and be part of a vibrant travel community such as Gogobot’s. I generally love to share pictures of my favorite places in the world, and […]
It’s been featured in countless movies, celebrated in numerous events and talked about endlessly; the world-famous Empire State Building in the city that never sleeps needs no introduction, for it has stood proud and tall since 1931 and continues to do so. After the tragic 9/11 events, it re-became the tallest building in New York City for […]
This year started big for the travel industry: new exotic destinations to be seen, the New York Times Travel Show and an unbelievable boost in travel apps. To top it all off, last Wednesday, January 30th, the social media network for travelers, Gogobot, launched its first “GO-and-TELL” at Culturefix in New York City. As a proud Pro […]
My favorite all-time era is the 1920s. And today, I can finally live it! This Friday at the Grand Central Terminal, it’s back to 1913. The New York icon is celebrating its 100th year of existence and throwing an all-day party. And what better way to roll back the clock than with 1913 prices. Think 10-cent […]
Ok, so Cancun … I don’t love it. Yes, the sand is fine, the waters are blue and the sky is always bright, but it is too spring break-ish for my taste, and you know, a bit too commercial. I would much rather prefer Playa del Carmen, another popular Mexican destination, as well as Cozumel or Tulum, […]

It is home to Lake Geneva – or Lac Léman as the Swiss call it – and its picturesque landscapes overlooking the Swiss and French Alps. Having seen it both during summer and winter time, there is an […]
2012 brought some exciting new adventures, that fulfilled some of my dreams. And so, as I look back on my travel highlights of 2012, I relive them at the same time. I visited some Medieval European cities, a Middle Eastern gem, a Caribbean paradise, as well as some New England cities. Last end of the year […]
There is only one word to describe Christmas in New York City, and that is magic! Ever since I was watching Home Alone with Macalay Culkin as a child, up to my first Christmas in the city in 2005, I realized there is no other place that can equal its charm during the holidays. Everyone should […]
This year, I went to Philadelphia for Thanksgiving weekend, only because it was a quick and convenient trip. I’ll be very frank; I had no expectations whatsoever about the city, in fact I was so delusional, it only goes to show how judgmental we sometimes can be. My preconceived ideas and utter ignorance made me believe Philadelphia is one […]
