The World is a Book...

"...and those who travel read only a page," at least according to St. Augustine!

Hello loves! I'm so so sorry to have gone completely MIA for such a very long time. I've been here there and everywhere since the last time I posted. Training in San Francisco, training in London, meetings in Scotland, holiday in Istanbul and now, finally back in humid Texas. As you can see, I've read many pages this month.

But I do appreciate that everyone stuck around (at least according to my followers and my blog counter)! As a peace offering and a way to get you all back interested in the blog, I'm giving away something fun.

This [see Exhibit A] beautiful piece of wall art, created by the lovely Stephanie aka thelivingroomfloor, will come home to one of you lucky readers. I haven't framed it yet (on my to-do list for today) but I'm in l.o.v.e. LOVE with it! So classic and lovely and THE perfect sentiment.


All you have to do is comment and tell me what you consider to be the most interesting place you've traveled too. Also, feel free to throw in where in the world you'd most like to visit.


Let's say you have until Thursday, 31 March and I'll announce the winner on April 1. Consider this the official re-launch of the blog!

Can't wait to hear where it is that you've been, and where it is that you're hoping to go. (Ooh, very idealistic, no?) And don't forget to tell your friends! :)

xxbesos

  1. Most interesting place I have traveled to was Indio, California for Coachella. The mountains were so beautiful and the weather in April was perfect 60 at night 80 during the day. Amaze! Any place I can be in my bikini and listen to live music all day is heavenly. Sad I will not be there again this year!

  2. I love the wall art! So true! Let's see...the most interesting place I've traveled to is Sedona, AZ. I loved the red rocks and it was such a spiritual place to visit. One place to visit on my "Bucket List" is England. I do not know if I will ever be able to mark it off my list someday, but I hope to. :-)

  6. i've not traveled abroad, but i've lived several different places. lol. i think that Maui is a little slice of heaven -- but i'm really in love with the mountains also (just got back from the Smoky Mountains in North Carolina). i have 4 sons -- so being out doors is a big part of what we do.
