David Bann Vegetarian Restaurant | Edinburgh, Scotland

by Marian Krueger, in category Destinations, Dining, Scotland, UK

There are so many things that I love about Edinburgh, but one of the best is that finding places to eat for non-meat eaters was relatively easy and plentiful.  During our “Paranormal Underground” tour with Mercat Tours, we walked past David Bann Vegetarian restaurant and knew that we would have to come back for a meal.

The Glasshouse Edinburgh | An Edinburgh Hotel Review

by Marian Krueger, in category Hotels/Resorts, Scotland, UK

When it came time to decide where we would be staying during our trip to Edinburgh, it seemed like a no brainer. I’m a huge fan of boutique hotels and so I immediately gravitated toward The Glasshouse Edinburgh. It didn’t hurt that we’re part of the Marriott reward program and this hotel is part of… Read More

British Airways World Traveller Plus | Boston to Edinburgh

Time to hit the road again and this time was a trip to Scotland.  Airfare being as high as it has been these days, I opted for British Airways as they have a few different options including their premium economy class or “World Traveller Plus.”  With this class of service, you’re afforded more legroom and wider seats,… Read More

Some Last Thoughts on London

by Marian Krueger, in category Destinations, London, UK

As we wrapped up London and headed out to Spain, I wished we had more time to spend in one of my most favorite cities in the world, but it was not to be. Our trip here was a lightning fast jaunt and but not for the cold weather, lack of appropriate attire, and jet… Read More

A Bit of the Unusual in London

by Marian Krueger, in category Destinations, London, UK

When traveling, most people take pictures of their family in front of famous sites. I may do that, but I always seem to notice the not so ordinary things that intrigue me. Some are funny, some are unusual, and some are just strange. On Leake Street near the Waterloo Station in London is the fantastic… Read More

Off to England

by Marian Krueger, in category Destinations, London, UK

Sometimes deciding on a vacation means thinking outside of the box and that’s exactly what I did for our Thanksgiving plans. Normally we jump in the car and make the drive to New Hampshire to my husband’s parents’ home, but this year we wanted to do something different. Last year I won an 8-day cruise… Read More

And this just happened. I’m proud to join the fu And this just happened. I’m proud to join the fully vaccinated club today after receiving my second dose at @uclahealth. Two weeks for full immunity and then I’m packing my bags and getting back to travel. Well, I hope so! So incredibly happy to have had this opportunity and a big thank you to the employees at Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center, like Izzy, Aaron, and Nydia, who were professional and helpful throughout the process.Now let’s get everyone vaccinated not just in the United States, but worldwide. While we have free access to the vaccine, many countries still don’t have the vaccine at all.

Perhaps the effect of enjoying a little too much sangria, but seriously - so many great buildings to enjoy. One of the reasons I would say that if you have the chance to travel to Spain, you should definitely go..

I freely admit that I’m more impulsive than most I freely admit that I’m more impulsive than most so you’re probably not going to be surprised to hear that I’m always up for a new tattoo or piercing on my travels. While in Hanoi, I decided to get an industrial piercing at 1984 Tattoo & Piercing Studios after having some yummy vegan food nearby at The Veg. Hurt like hell afterwards, but is one of my favorites. Have you ever gotten a tattoo or piercing while traveling?

I love interesting buildings and Saigon Central Po I love interesting buildings and Saigon Central Post Office (Bưu điện Trung tâm Sài Gòn) is one. If you’re in the area, definitely stop by and check out the outside and the inside, complete with a few large historical maps on the walls.

I stopped at the Instagram famous “Train Street” when I visited Hanoi in August of 2019. Only two short months later, the government shut the cafes down and access to Train Street on foot for tourists. But it looks like the tourism industry, which has suffered in Vietnam like most countries, is pushing back. So if you’ve ever wanted your own selfie on Train Street, act fast because no one knows how long it will remain open.
