How to fix an airplane?
What is the deal with minor maintenance issues taking forever to deal with lately? In the last two weeks the Home Warrior and I have been on two flights that were delayed significantly because of a simple fix. And I’m not talking, like, cracks in the fuselage. I’m talking about teeny-tiny stuff. For example, the…
Sorry, guys. Technical difficulties.
I have been experiencing technical difficulties with my computer for a few days now, which has made posting super difficult. I promise that everything will be worked out over the weekend and I will be back to regular posting next week!! Thanks for your patience.
Conference Packing Tip: Save some room!!!
The first of what I’m sure will be many stories/learnings from my two week conference…… Where there is a conference, there is free stuff. Whether it’s papers, books, bags, water bottles, coffee mugs, or some other random tchotchkie, it doesn’t matter. Every time I’ve been to a conference, regardless of length, I have ended up…
Traveling During the First Trimester
Traveling for work while you’re pregnant is tough. Oh, right. You might be wondering how I know. Well…..I have some news. The Home Warrior and I will welcome our little bundle of mini-warrior joy in August! We are very excited, and can’t wait to meet our baby. As you can imagine, being pregnant has meant…
A new way to make packing easier?
Last week, I talked about the cool new travel adapter I found in TravelSmith’s recent catalog. Well, I found another interesting item as well. These “small shelves to go” hang in your closet, you fill them up with your clothes etc, they will collapse into your suitcase, then you hang them up at your destination.…

Duty of Care
I learned a new term last week—Duty of Care. Don’t worry, not because something crazy happened, but because my mom’s seatmate on a flight home was in charge of Duty of Care for a large corporation. I had never heard the term before, but as soon as I did I made sure my company has…
Cool Travel Plug Adapter from TravelSmith
As you know, I am always on the lookout for cool new gadgets that make travel easier. During my perusal of the latest TravelSmith catalog (always a fun time!) I found a very cool travel plug adapter. It’s an adapter/converter, and includes a built in USB port for an extra way to charge all of…
Traveling While Injured
A few years ago, I managed to break both of my feet in the span of about four months. Not the most graceful period of my life. Sigh. Luckily, it wasn’t both feet at the same time, and the left on only required a shoe, not a boot, and not crutches. But the right one,…
