Hope you had a Great 4th of July! I had a whirlwind of a week – it began Sunday in Philadelphia for one night at the most amazing hotel, then my first ZFV experience, then three nights in glorious New Orleans, and home in time to have a glass of wine on my rooftop where … Read More

(note: this post was published a few years ago, but it is equally relevant now) Before I left for Istanbul last week, my mother – of course, my mother – called me very concerned about my trip and my safety. I explained that Istanbul is in Europe. It is sophisticated and safe. I further told … Read More
