Travel in Style
In a meeting about 30 years ago, the executives of United MileagePlus reported an internal survey indicated their best business customers were also their best leisure customers. It came as no shock to me, as I understand well the travel bug bites hard, and when you travel for business you are always looking for that other place to discover on your own. Same goes with bleisure: Long before the term became widely used by the industry, we were using it and living it at Global Traveler. Often my business trips to California, Florida and all over the world included a weekend of golf, usually with clients.
Sailing and Snorkeling in the U.S. Virgin Islands

Museums of Dublin
I finally have some exciting travel to talk about — I just returned from joining my parents to visit my sister in Ireland, where she is finishing up her study abroad semester at Dublin City University. There’s so much to share from the eight-day trip that I’m going to spread it out over several blog posts. For this first blog post, I’ll focus on the museums we went to in Dublin and save other aspects of the city and our time in Galway for the coming weeks.
Sunny Sunday
The weather this weekend was beautiful, so my husband and I decided to take advantage of the sun with a walk around the nearby Cooper River.
