Dusit Thani-An Oasis Of Heaven In Bangkok
From the minute I walked into the 5-star Dusit Thani Bangkok, I felt like royalty. The smiling staff couldn’t have been more attentive. The lobby with its soothing colors of deep purple and Ceylon blue felt welcoming, and I felt myself deeply relax, even though I had just walked in off the busy streets of Bangkok. The location, next to the Si Lom subway and Sala Daeng sky train, made it easy to get anywhere in Bangkok that I needed to go. The Executive Suite room, where I stayed, was incredibly spacious and had a stunning view of Lumpini Park, and the sunrise each morning. My bed was one of the most comfortable I’ve ever…

A Luxury Stay At 16 Learmonth Terrace-Edinburgh, Scotland (Now Closed)
From the moment I arrived in Edinburgh, Scotland, I was immediately enchanted with everything about it. 16 Learmonth Terrace, the Bed and Breakfast I stayed at had a lot to do with that enchantment. I received a warm welcome from Joon, the owner. She set me down in the cozy kitchen, prepared me a cup of coffee and immediately began winning me over with some of the Scottish specialty sweets. I felt like I had gone home to visit my mum with the way Joon took care of me. She turned on the electric blanket each night before I got in and put chocolates on my pillows. She gave me wonderful…

The Algarve is a spectacular area of Portugal and most people staying in Faro are either coming or going from the airport or visiting to see the gorgeous Deserta Island.

The Faro beach is about 9 km away. The spacious room had a comfy bed, and the best pillows I’ve ever slept on while traveling. (Fluffy goose down pillows) There was also a refrigerator, nice leather chairs to relax in, and a flat screen…

Valen at the Valmor- A Trendy Apartment Stay In Lisbon
I had been traveling non-stop for six weeks, when I got lucky enough to stay at the Valmor in Lisbon. I had gotten to the point where I was tiring of small hotel rooms, dirty laundry, and eating out for every meal. I just loved the roomy kitchen, and after so many meals eating out, it was great to finally cook for myself, and make my own coffee. There was a grocery store and three health food stores nearby, so I was basically in heaven. When I didn’t feel like cooking, there were great restaurants nearby. I love eating momos at Casa Nepal, and I had one of the best…
