To help my fellow travelers out, I am introducing a new regular topic: Green Travel Tips. The first tip: bring a water bottle with you and fill it up as you need it. 60…
One thing I learned from my recent trips to the snowy northeast is that you can’t wear ballet flats in snow. All of my shoes are flats. I fell several years ago and sprained my ankle and my knee, plus I’m on my feet all day doing presentations. I live in Texas, where we don’t…
