Celebrities Go to Paris
… but I have not been. Austin-based travel company Andrew Harper is still kind of a hidden gem in the travel industry, with stunning photography and smart editorial focused on luxury travelers. The company produces The Hideaway Report, a private monthly publication for sophisticated travelers. Andrew Harper and his editors pay full price and travel incognito to write candid…

Austin: My Ambitious Austin Weekend
Waaaaaay back in 2009, I wrote a post called Top Ten Things to Do in Austin … the list still stands as an excellent guide, but as I spend a wedding long weekend in town with locals and not, I thought I’d make a list of things I want to do this weekend. To be clear, this…
Festival Summer in Telluride
It’s hard to leave Aspen. Which must explain why in the three summers I’ve spent in Aspen, I’ve never made it to Telluride. However, nestled in the very-different-from-the-Rockies San Juan Mountains, Telluride (elevation: 8,750 ft.) lies in a box canyon, surrounded on three sides by 14,000-foot peaks, which makes for something awesome. Plus it connects to…

[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lflMrIZeHb0] It’s funny, the majority of the…
Take Me There: Napa Valley
Despite my love for wine, travel, and the sunshine of California, I have not ever been to Napa Valley. Sad panda. Just another reason to visit: Austin hotspot and “Best New Restaurant” James Beard Foundation Award nominee La Condesa just opened an outpost (view my coverage of the Austin location’s drinks here and food here). La Condesa…
