London!!

July 26, 2013 by Beth Meyer

London!!

I’m so excited to be back in London after nearly a decade!!! I was last here nine years ago visiting my good friend Rachel for her 21st birthday, who was studying abroad at Oxford (along with a bunch of other Tech friends). The year before (a decade ago almost to the day…which makes me feel […]

Cali: The Salsa Capital of the World

Cali: The Salsa Capital of the World

Our first stop in Colombia was Cali. This seemed to confuse people when I told them I was currently in Cali, as I used to live in Cali – California. This Cali is in Colombia and is about a ten hour bus from the border of Ecuador. Due to its rich Afro-Colombian influence, Cali is […]

Reunion in Quito

Reunion in Quito

In Quito, I met up with Mark and Matt for a reunion. I decided to use some Starwood points so we could stay at the Sheraton Quito. It was great to be back at that wonderful hotel again (even though I didn’t get upgraded to a suite this time ;)). We decide to take full […]

Quito

April 6, 2013 by Beth Meyer

Quito

I flew from the Galapagos to Quito where I planned to spend a few days before making the trek to Chimborazo. Quito, the capital of Ecuador, is the second highest capital city in the world at 2,800m above sea level (La Paz, Bolivia being the highest at 3,650m). Quito is the actually the highest capital […]

I’m off to the Galapagos!

March 25, 2013 by Beth Meyer

I’m off to the Galapagos!

I booked a trip to the Galapagos! YAY! The Galapagos is one of those places that I know a bit about, most of my knowledge learned from Alex Trebec and the Jeopardy team when they have a dedicated Galapagos category, but a place that, despite not knowing a ton, I always wanted to visit and […]

Luxurious Lima

Luxurious Lima

Since my Instagram photo was used for the 2012 Toast to You Starwood Preferred Guest yearly recap, I’ve been chatting off and on with the folks at Starwood Hotels & Resorts. They graciously put me in touch with The Westin Lima who offered to host me for a night. After three weeks at an average […]

SPG Love

February 28, 2013 by Beth Meyer

SPG Love

I’m a very brand loyal person and there are a few I always (well, try to mostly) stick to more than others…Coke (NEVER Pepsi), Delta (when we booked this trip, I must have asked my travel agent, Justin, after every segment…it’s that part of the Skyteam? Ha!) and Starwood Hotels. We’ve been lucky enough to […]

Maldives Part 2: Luxury Living

Maldives Part 2: Luxury Living

For the second part of our Maldives trip, we stayed three luxurious nights at the Sheraton Maldives Full Moon Resort & Spa thanks to some generous family donations (THANK YOU THANK YOU Grandpa, Grandma Linda, Momma & Bill for buying us a night each) and using some of my horded Starwood points (I’ve been saving […]

My Dream Destination: The Maldives

November 4, 2012 by Beth Meyer

My Dream Destination: The Maldives

The Maldives. My dream destination. The place I’ve wanted to go for years and years and years (and years and years). The spot I’ve always said I’m going to on my honeymoon (whenever that eventually rolls around…). It never really occurred to me that the Maldives are a quick 45 minute flight south of Southern […]
