Since I revamped my blog earlier this month, I have been looking at starting a new weekly or monthly series (or two). I have found myself drawn to other bloggers posts about “links they love”, so today, starts the first in a series. My plan for this series – “Links I Love” – is that it will become a monthly series. I hope you find these links as great and interesting as I did! Ever wonder about the bedrooms of those TV characters like Carrie Bradshaw and Serena van der Woodsen? Glamour magazine shares some cools details about these rooms. Daily Dose of Design shares […]

(Sidebar: You’ll see my traveling bunny in several photos. Unfortunately, he was damaged during the trip and is now retired to a nice bunny-loving community in […]
Wanderlust Wednesday: Travel by Train
Most people cannot afford to travel around the world, flying from one location to another, checking your luggage, handing over your passport, and not to mention, sitting in cramped seats on airlines (hello, we can’t all afford private planes) or getting seasick on a cruise.

If you’re open to not having a set itinerary, then traveling by train may be a great way to see the world, including sites in the USA, Europe, India, or China. So why not […]
