New York City on a Budget The Flyaway Weblog

While I am now quite happy with my lifestyle in the Colorado Rockies, I still believe that at least once in a lifetime, everyone should pay a visit to the Big Apple. That said, the term "budget New York City" is almost an oxymoron. However, the good news is that there are many activities that can [...] Read More

I came across a blog recently that has descriptions of 70 different hostels and hotels in Cuba.
While there are other locations on the web where you can find hotel info on Cuba, the write ups here are fairly detailed and the volume of reviews here gives you a nice place to go to see a large collection of Cuban hotels.
Cuba is experiencing a growth in tourism. That growth could expand greatly if the US drops restrictions on American citizens visiting Cuba. Of course, before Communism Cuba was the tourist destination in the Caribbean. With it's beaches, unique culture, and history, Cuba is likely to see that status restored (eventually) if the US travel restrictions are relaxed and the government of Cuba continues to move (even slowly) toward freedom and openness...

That, applies to my home as well; almost every piece of my decoration has some sort of significance for me. A special doll from my childhood, an [...] Read More
Are you Proud of Your Latin Heritage? So, Why Aren't You Proud of Your Latin Curves as Well? Latina Viva
Yesterday I wrote about Fitness' inaugural Mind, Body, Spirit Superstar, Daisy Fuentes, and shared with you some excerpts from Daisy's interview. Daisy Fuentes said about Hispanic women's pressure to be thin: "There's a part of you that really wants to embrace your curves, then there's society saying no one likes curves." When I was growing up, the famous women who were role models had curves. Of course they weren't exactly "real women", [...] Read More

When I first moved out of my parents' house, I was excited. Not because of the freedom that living alone will give me but more because it will also give me the chance to decorate my own place the way I wanted to. When I got married and moved in with my new husband thousands of miles away from home, I didn't get the chance to re-decorate our first home. [...] Read More
