  • Episode 121: European Christmas Markets
    European Christmas markets have a history that goes back to the late Middle Ages. It’s hard not to get into a festive mood with hearty, comforting food that warms your body and soul, the cheerful and lively atmosphere in the market squares, and the fairy tale surroundings (often majestic cathedrals or city halls serving as backdrops in a town that seems to have halted in time). Our guest today is a not only a librarian and the amazing virtual assistant and podcast editor of our agency but a savvy well seasoned traveler. This past christmas Heidi and her husband Luis journeyed one more time to soak up, revel in and explore the magic of the Christmas markets of Europe that made her fall in love with the season all over again. In all, she  has visited  markets in 14 cities spanning 6 countries (photo is Prague,  market in Old Town Square).

  • Episode 119: Central Florida Attractions

    We are all familiar with Florida and it’s many theme park attractions, but we often overlook the other gems that it has to offer. For example, did you know that the #1 rated beach in the US on Trip Advisor is Clearwater Beach? Or that you can stay in an Adventure themed room at the Legoland Resort? There are some great places to explore that are less than a 2 hour drive when you’re flying to Orlando, so why not add on a little side trip next time? This week we’d like to highlight some of the great places to visit in Central Florida and the Tampa/St. Petersburg area!

    Do you LOVE Central Florida? What is your favorite place to visit there?
