It's been a while...

So the last trip was to India back in May. Wow how time has flown by. But it's time to get my jet setting shoes and wrap back on and head out to London. Yep, right at the tail end of Olympics. As you know I have never been accused of good timing.

This is a special trip for me though. Not only do I get to see one of my nearest and dearest friends in her new home but I also get to start a new project for my son and his preschool. Move over flat Stanley, Im bringing Fiona the world traveling fox along for the ride.
I have one main objective and that is to expose our kiddies to travel and all the wonderful places that there are to experience inside and out of the US.

So keep an eye out. Not only will I provide the footage content to Surf City Preschool but I will post it as well. And along the way I hope to set up a communication exchange program pairing up kids in the US with children of my colleagues and friends abroad. If you want your kiddies to participate let me know.

Well an hour to take off... Wine in hand, Brandon, Henry, Emily and Jenna in my heart, friends and family in my thoughts. Hopefully a pint of Guinness at the other end... Cheers

Mumbai the second time

Landed in India and am staying at one of the most amazing hotels in the world. Unlike my first trip I am staying on the in a colonial part of India feet of away to what is know as "the gateway to India". It is busy and loud but the iconic Taj Mahal Palace hotel is gorgeous. Service is five star and the rooms are unlike anything I have ever seen.

This is part of town is what I expected to see the first time. Not the construction ridden, jam packed area like Bandar. This area is lush with beautiful old buildings and a view of the Arabian sea.

I knew this would be a different experience than last. I'm am happy I have returned.

Off to India

Ok, I know I did a terrible job of writing about Brazil. All I have to say is that "I loved it and can't wait to go back".

So I promise I will do a better job with this trip. Different from the last India excursion I will be venturing out. Escorted of course but actually experiencing something completely out of my comfort zone.

Stay turned. This should be an interesting trip.

Latin America here I come

It is time to hit the road again. I luckily escaped any travel for the month of March which allowed me spend a ton of time with friends and family but I have to say I am excited about this trip. It will be a short 5 days in Brazil but I have a feeling it will be amazing both personally and professionally. I unfortunately will not be hitting the hot spots like Rio but I will definitely be back. Cant wait to share the details with all of you. Ciao!!!

Hello California

On top of the fact I miss my little man so much and the weather is about 40 degrees nicer, I am so happy to be home. Can't wait to fill you in on all the amazing details....

Mona Lisa ain't got nothin on me!
