We dedicated the majority of our recent summer to Asia. After our two-and-a-half-month stay in Seoul, we headed to Japan for business meetings related to Superegg. The first week of August coincided with a national holiday in Japan, affording us the opportunity to indulge in a personal vacation – highlights included visits to Naoshima, Nagoya, and Kyoto! We eventually made our way to our ultimate destination: Tokyo. Among the exceptional accommodations we experienced was the Palace Hotel Tokyo, an esteemed member of The Leading Hotels of The World. Nestled in the prestigious Marunouchi distr ..read more

Visiting Naoshima Island had long been a dream of mine. As an admirer of Tadao Ando's architecture and Yayoi Kusama's art, this small, art-infused island in Japan's Seto Inland Sea is a must-visit destination for many artists, designers, and art enthusiasts. Our trip to Japan was originally planned for August due to work commitments, but as fate would have it, our visit coincided with Obon—a time when Japanese people traditionally take a break to spend quality time with their families. We decided to seize this opportunity, taking some well-deserved time off to explore Naoshima and Teshima. Ya ..read more

In 2015, I had the privilege of visiting Dorado Beach, one of the exquisite Ritz-Carlton Reserve properties. During my stay, I had an unforgettable experience photographing the legendary Anthony Bourdain, which has stayed with me ever since.

Having already experienced the exceptional hospitality and luxury of a Ritz-Carlton Reserve, my expectations were high. However, Zadún surpassed all my expectations and left an indelible mark on my mind. As soon as ..read more

While staying at La Residencia on our wedding anniversary trip in late September, we visited some of my favorite beaches and villages I adored the last time I was here with friends. As taxis can get expensive and the bus gets very crowded, I recommend renting a car to really explore and enjoy the island. Cala s'Almunia I visited Caló del Moro on my last trip, so we opted for Cala s'Almunia this time! They are both rocky beaches that require some walking time to get there (both on the same initial path), but they’re incredibly stunning and worth the trek.     Palma Palma is the cap ..read more
