I’ve written before (HERE and HERE) about how I actually enjoy airplane food. What surprises me, though, is that people seem interested in my airplane food adventures. It’s odd, website traffic seems to spike tremendously when I post food pictures (thanks for stopping by, y’all!). As a result, this post is all about MOAR PLANE FOOD.

Our friend, knowing we were going to be in Seattle a month later, calmly suggested: “Why don’t…

In the latest issue of InFluential Magazine I offer some basic etiquette tips for your time in airports and in the air. Turn to page 22-23 (print) / page 25-26 (digital) to learn more! Did…
Disclosure: I was provided a complimentary preview copy of “Happy-Go-Yoga: Simple poses to relieve pain, reduce stress, and add joy.” I’ll admit it: I hate going to the gym.
