Goodbye to The Last Days of Summer

I can't believe that summer is almost over. It just seems to have flown by. Normally, around this time of year, most parents are excited about the beginning of school and there have been days during this summer when I have been there too. But most of the time I wan[...]

Vacationing on Le Boat

This year has been full of amazing road trips adventures. I have always said that one of the reasons I enjoy road trips so much is because of all the things you can see that you wouldn't otherwise were you on a plane. The road trip through the Southwest that I took[...]

A Staycation Full of New York City History

The fast-changing pace of New York City makes it easy for those who visit, and even some of those who live there, to miss details of its history. It's easy to walk past a landmark and not really notice its significance for being there, or into a restaurant and not[...]

Behind the photo: Feed the birds

When I took this photo, I had just found out that I had gotten to the next stage of several interviews with a casting director for a travel network. I wasn't sure how I felt about it. A part of me was really excited, another part of me was confused, concerned even,[...]

Planning a Family Vacation in France

Our recent vacation to France has only been our second trip outside of the country together. It's expensive to travel internationally as a large family and though I want to encourage those with kids to travel together, I also understand if you want to wait till y[...]

Facing My Insecurities through Travel

It is difficult to talk about my fears and insecurities before I face them while on the road because a part of my building up the courage is in convincing myself that the little trembling inside is insignificant when compared to my courage. But, once I have take[...]

Bordeaux from the river on a Uniworld Cruise

I recently went on my very first river cruise as the guest of Uniworld Cruises. This cruise took me back to my favorite French city, Bordeaux, where I was able to visit some places I fell in love with during my previous visit to the region. I was traveling on[...]

Enjoyed an incredible meal at @albadawi.nyc, a Michelin Guide-featured Palestinian restaurant in Brooklyn Heights with Tim Robbins and his partner dining in the table next to us. But as a true blue New Yorker, you keep your cool and take in the magic of life in this amazing city.

I am being called back into interpreter work to support those working with our immigrant community. What I can tell you about that landscape today is that it is overwhelmed. Pro-bono attorneys have massive waiting lists, forcing those in the immigration system - an already financially draining process - to seek support from expensive private attorneys. 

The work is emotionally intense but so damn important. If you want to help with donations some non-profit doing good work are: @americancivi, @lawnyinc, and @risse_albany. 

If you have other reputable, pro-bono resources for those seeking support through their immigration process and tribulations, please share in the comments!

Together we can help change someone’s life. ❤️

It’s ok to breathe. Process in silence. Seek comfort in yourself. Laugh. 

REST IS RESISTANCE. 

They want us scared. Broken. Isolated. Hopeless. Joyless. Exhausted. We are not. This moment is not how our story ends.

A wintery day with coffee and books was had in Syr A wintery day with coffee and books was had in Syracuse, NY. For our coffee cart (@cafecomodony ) we headed over to @peakscoffeeco roasting site and were treated to a tour and cupping experience of their beautiful coffee selections which we are excited to serve at market this summer. 

We then headed to Books and Melodies to browse through their large selection of used books and vintage vinyls, while the cozy vibey tunes filled the space. 

Followed that with a stop at @kelseyscoffeeandfriends for a warm matcha and delicious breakfast burrito. And while a visit to Peaks Coffee roasters is not a public affair, you can still pick up a bag or two or more at Kelsey’s - trust us, it’s worth it!

Stay warm and safe out there everyone!
