Hospitality & Tourism Summit
As the Chicago weather warms, I start to look for things to do this summer. The Hospitality & Tourism Summit provided more ideas than I could squeeze into the summer.
Talking Travel with Adam McArthur
Adam McArthur is a great example of knowing what you want at a young age and achieving that goal. Stating he was inspired by cartoons at a young age, he begged his parents for a chance to pursue his love of cartoons, acting and voice-overs. After taking acting lessons when he was 16, he quickly landed many radio spots for Macy's, and he hasn't stopped since.

Nayara Spa Review
At the end of April, my two friends and I went on a girls' trip to Costa Rica. On the first leg of the trip we went to Nayara Gardens in La Fortuna, nestled in the rainforest at the base of the Arenal Volcano. While there we were given the chance to try out treatments at the most stunning spa I have been to.
SuperFreak: The Rick James Story
With Chicago Comic and Entertainment Expo at McCormick Place this weekend, I knew I would be spending a lot of time downtown. My busy weekend started by attending SuperFreak: The Rick James Story at Arie Crown Theater.
Four Days in Vienna
Several years and a few thousand working hours ago, I remember speaking with a group of colleagues about our favorite vacation destinations. Someone in the room had recently returned from a trip to Vienna, Austria, and I was sold. There was romance in her voice when she described the scenery and the city … more than I’d ever heard anyone talk about a European destination before.
The Great Chicago Ketchup Debate
Baseball season in Chicago means the start of the great debate. I'm not talking about Cubs versus White Sox. I'm referring to ketchup on hot dogs.
