Cities We Love: Chicago
Chicago is an incredible city, and during certain times of the year, it’s the best city in the US (in my biased opinion). And while you could visit Chicago year-round, I’d highly recommend visiting during late Spring into early Fall. Not only will the weather be at its best, you will also have access to so many things to do around the city and you will also likely fall in love with The Windy City.

The Best of the Basque
I work with many clients who love traveling for food and wine (as do I!) and there is one small, but important culinary destination that comes up over and over again with clients - San Sebastian. This city on the northern coast of Spain is a food (and wine) lover’s dream - it has the highest number of Michelin-starred restaurants per capita in the world (11 in a city of less than 200,000 people). Have I piqued your interest now in this tiny corner of the world, straddling Spain and France?
