First of all, I absolutely love Sunday brunch. I’ve been to quite a few, but I’ve never been to a better Sunday brunch than the one I went to at the Rain Tree Cafe at the Plaza Athenee in Bangkok. Is it hedonistic and over-the-top lavish? Why, yes. Yes, it is. So make sure you arrive hungry and with your palate ready for tasting.

Being Back In San Miguel de Allende, Mexico
I have made it back to San Miguel de Allende, and it really has felt like coming home! In my last blog post, Going Home, I wrote, “I want to live a life where I awaken to hot air balloons in the bluest sky I’ve ever seen, and I have time to enjoy them. I want to be still. I want to notice. I want to stop chasing after the world. I want to let the world come to me.” The Perfect View In San Miguel de Allende I found the perfect apartment here, that allows me to see the hot air balloons gliding over this beautiful town each morning and…
