Interior design and decor – heck – even exterior design and architecture are a passion of mine for as long as I can remember. I love a good approach to improving the old and so I pretty much spend quite a lot of time online searching for every idea or innovation and trends humankind is aiming to set, such as these beauties:
The city (San Francisco) is not the place to be in the summer months if you are a sun worshiper, and the fact the fog is holding steady at bay, and the weather is unpleasantly windy and cold – all of it is enough for me to shift my visual focus – to simply Italy: {Click on photos for destination information}
I love when I stumble upon an article that has my jaw dropping in a – why didn’t I think of this – sort of way. And since I am desperately waiting for the iPhone 8 to up my Instagram post-ability, I must admit – this is a brilliant idea that needs to spread like wildfire:
The past three months or even more, I’ve been on the go – working long hours, not sleeping well, nor eating healthy, and exercise has been put on hold, unless you consider driving back and forth to the country as exercise.

I seldom mention travel in or around the U.S. – I suppose it’s because I take this amazing country for granted. But I’ve made my way throughout parts of the 50 states and truth be told kind of feel envious of those that have covered all 50 or even 30. Like my old travel boss, or a couple of good friends that recently posted on Facebook a map detailing all that they have covered or seen throughout this interesting country some of us call home.
