Hotel Saint Cecilia
9.13.2010



I have never stayed at Hotel Saint Cecilia in Austin, but think I might need to make a visit and check it out.  It looks as if you are just staying at someone's house, with a big back yard and lots of trees.  It's worth a try.  (Don't forget to go to Maudie's for your Mexican food fix!)

Crosby Street Hotel
9.10.2010


The Crosby Street Hotel, designed by architect Paul Taylor and co-owner Kit Kemp, is a fabulous and sophisticated boutique hotel in SoHo. Right in the middle of all the action, but also set a little bit away from too much noise.  Boutique rates can be a little steep, but you can always taste the experience by having cocktails and nibbles at The Crosby Street Bar and Terrace!

In my dreams...
8.24.2010


It's a rainy old day here in the big apple... the kind of day that leaves you staring out the window dreaming of sunshine and pretty umbrella-topped drinks. After returning from Italy however, my new go-to fantasy is this hotel: Il San Pietro. It's located on the edge of a cliff between Praiano and Positano and it is simply divine.

Rio de Janeiro!
8.20.2010


I just returned from a completely amazing trip to Brazil to see my sister and her boyfriend who have recently moved to Rio. Far from being the relaxing beach holiday I imagined it would be; we spent a very happy two weeks climbing up mountains, seeing new and exciting animals (I loved the botanical gardens), riding up the most rickety tram to Saint Theresa (a beautiful part of town), dancing til the wee hours in Lapa and watching the sun set from the superb Ipanema beaches!

Benvenuti a Praiano
8.04.2010


It's no wonder emperors used to vacation here. Praiano (the lesser known but far more peaceful and family-friendly town, five minutes south of Positano) is paradise. I don't quite know where to start... the people are just lovely, the water is perfection, the food is glorious, and the view.... bellissima! When you visit (which you must), be sure to eat here and here (you'll thank me). Okay, la spiaggia is calling me! Baci!

We are very proud to announce the re-branding of Babyccino Kids and the launch of their new-look site, designed by us!

Take a peek the Babyccino Kids Cityguides for Amsterdam, London, New York, and Paris and catch it for yourself!

stunning sevilla
5.17.2010

I was recently lucky enough to visit warm, sunny, beautiful Spain and I fell head over heels for Sevilla (no surprises there). I just love the colour of the city... it's so alive and full of visual surprises and contrasts. These postcards kind of sum it all up for me and I thought I should share the love...
