I love watching the Travel Channel to get inspired by amazing places I MUST visit. Where do you get your travel bug?

So often to do we all get caught up in daydreaming about the next exotic adventure we're gonna have, zip lining through the rainforests of Brazil, BASE jumping off a tower in New Zealand or soaking up the sun on the beaches in Thailand, that we forget to explore our very own surroundings. While I still put money away to continue my exploration of the world I find myself reveling in the fact that my very own city is becoming an oasis filled with unique gems to explore and love. The old brick houses turned local hang out spots are the perfect blend of past and present. I can't wait to discover more!

My sister's adorable baby shower invitation handmade by my mother. I'm envious of her creativity!

A great way to enjoy the day.

For the past two and a half years I have been the Andy Sachs to a male version of Miranda Priestly from the Devil Wears Prada. Running around trying to get the unpublished Harry Potter manuscript was a typical day in the office... Talk about 24/7 stress! Well I have FINALLY thrown my cell phone into that gorgeous Parisian fountain and am off to find a new adventure... Eeek! Wish me luck!

A beautiful day in Taos, NM.

Sometimes I like to pretend I'm an HGTV designer in my home except at the end of my imaginary show all I have managed to accomplished is staging one bookcase and leaving a huge mess everywhere else. It's a work in progress...

I want to walk barefoot in the grass of some foreign place.

This is definitely a fantastic goal to have in life.  Everyone should shrive to achieve this.
