January 30 marks the celebration of National Plan for Vacation Day. The day serves as a reminder to travelers to start planning vacations for the upcoming year.
As I mentioned in a previous blog, I already have some travel plans for family weddings in 2024. The first wedding is in Washington, D.C., in May, and we plan to make it a long weekend. The second wedding will be in Charleston, South Carolina, in July. The final travel wedding will bring us to Italy in October. The wedding will take place in Lake Como, and we plan to spend some time in Milan and possibly another city. Additionally, I am visiting Nashville for a bachelorette party in March.
National Plan for Vacation Day
My 2024 travel calendar already feels packed! Beyond these trips, I’m anticipating daytrips to the Jersey shore, time in New York City celebrating my friend who is a mom-to-be and other last-minute weekend getaways.
I hope 2024 brings you to new destinations with unforgettable experiences. Bon voyage!

Nov 9, 2026Versatile and Vibrant, Modern Asti Spumante Is Not the Simple Party Fizz of the Past
I recall attending a New Year’s Eve party in my early 20s during which our host walked around at midnight filling guests’ flutes with celebratory toasts of “Champagne” or Asti Spumante. Now, the former wasn’t actually Champagne, just a cheaply made domestic Brut more suited to the budgets of people just entering the workforce. But those of us who liked our bubbly on the drier side preferred it to what we viewed as a sweet, simple Italian quaffer.

Why Japan Is Best Explored by Sea with Princess
Japan is a destination that rewards repeat visits because no two regions — or seasons — feel quite the same. One moment, you’re wandering through centuries-old geisha districts in Kanazawa. The next, you’re watching neon reflections dance across Tokyo streets long after midnight.

Nov 5, 2026Review: Casa Gangotena
ARRIVAL/CHECK-IN: Facing one side of San Francisco Plaza in Quito’s Old Town, you’d be forgiven if you, at first, mistook the hotel for a palatial residence or estate, where the fourth or perhaps fifth generation of a family resides. Casa Gangotena, a Relais & Châteaux property, was, in fact, a home for many, built in the 17th century and later home to several presidents. The entrance reminds you you’re on very special grounds, from crown molding ceilings to opulent chandeliers to velvet couches, and staff guided me to check-in, beginning my very own regal stay.
