August 2009. What was I doing? What was I thinking about? What was I writing about?? It is still hard to believe that I have already been blogging for over a year. This time last year I was visiting Salt Lake City on a regular basis, looking forward to the Paul McCartney concert, and trying…
I recently got an interesting question from a reader: I’m going on my first business trip next month. I know I am going to carry-on, and my the first bag is a rollerboard. My question is, what exactly counts as that second, “personal” bag? A laptop bag? A shoulder bag? Or does it have to…
During TBEX, one of the fantastic people I met was Sheila Scarborough from Perceptive Travel (among other places). Her vitality and passion for travel are contagious, and I had a great time visiting with her.

Recently, I did a guest post on business travel for my favorite blog, Corporette. Yes, it was a very exciting moment for me. One of the things that I was asked to talk about was how to act when traveling with your superiors. I had to think about it for a bit! I haven’t traveled…
Over the last month, my mother has traveled even more than I have. She was in at least 7 states, plus Canada, in a three week period. Since there was a combination of driving and flying, she had “issues” with packing her toiletries. She was driving the entire trip except for a one-night trip in…
After a fun-filled three day weekend, it’s a little sad to be back in the work week. I decided I needed something to cheer me up, and nothing makes me happier than……shoe shopping!! If you have been reading this blog for any period of time you know that I have a deep, abiding love for…
