GREAT PLACES TO EAT IN LONDON

Just to set the boundaries here, this isn’t a “must go to”, or “best places to visit” type of list.  This is simply my take on some great foods that represent London as a whole.  There are traditional, modern, traditional with modern twists, and of course places that represent and celebrate the incredible diversity of England’s capital city.  Basically, what I am saying here is, if you are in the area there are some great places to eat in London.

MY LAST TRAVEL EXPERIENCE

As I prepare to embark on my next vacation, I thought I would share my last travel experience with you, which was Turks & Caicos in July of 2021. I was on a familiarization trip, meaning I was exploring properties and learning the destination so I could speak to it with my clients. Turks & Caicos has some of the most beautiful waters. Those pictures of the blues and the greens are just stunning.

EU VACCINATION ANNOUNCEMENTS

So what is new on the EU Vaccination Announcements? On Monday, August 30, 2021, the EU announced that they “might” recommend the US to be removed from the safe countries to accept into their countries. Of course, this was another “oh no” moment for me, a travel advisor who focuses on this region. The next day, they recommended that the US not travel to the EU except for nonessential travel. The reason for this was the rising number of cases of covid-19 again among the unvaccinated people in the USA.

I LOVE TRAVEL

This week’s blog is about why I love to travel. I grew up without much money. Travel to me meant being in a car for many hours, bored and squished with my siblings. As a teenager, my goal in life was to travel. I didn’t want to have kids. I just wanted to see as many places as I could. Of course, that wasn’t how my life went. I had kids (which I am extremely thankful for) and I didn’t travel a lot until much later. I feel like I am still making up for lost time now as an empty nester. I love to travel and I cannot get enough new experiences!
