If you’re like me and follow 1000+ travel sites on social media, then you’ve probably seen over the past two years that San Miguel de Allende is THE hottest travel destination right now! With its Spanish colonial architecture, hilly cobblestone streets, and artsy vibe, it truly is an unforgettable destination centrally located in the heart of Mexico. But, I’m here to tell you why San Miguel de Allende is a little overrated and where you should go instead! I wish that San Miguel had been on my radar about ten years ago, back when it was just an artsy, picturesque
Letting go of the perfect man wasn't easy...it wasn't easy at all. Looking back over the end of 2018, I have to wonder if it was all a dream. You see, I recently fell head over heels in love with a man, a wonderful man that I will nickname Mr. Holy Grail...keep reading, and the nickname will hopefully make more sense. We met the old-fashioned way, in person as opposed to an online dating site, in an unassuming shopping center a mere 5 minutes from my old home. The details as to where and how we met will have to
Christmas in New York City - A Magical Experience You Soon Won't Forget: Visiting New York City at Christmastime is on many a person's bucket list, and if it's not on yours, it should be! The words Christmas and New York City are synonymous in my brain, and if you've ever been to NYC at Christmastime, you know what I'm talking about! In short, New York City is Christmas for the month of December (and one week in November)! Every block you stroll down comes to life with beautiful Christmas lights, and as you stroll down Fifth Avenue, the store
Before handing over all of next month's paycheck to take yourself or your whole family to a Dallas Cowboys game, keep reading below for my tips and tricks on how to get the most out of your Party Pass Ticket and save yourself hundreds of dollars in the process. As a former teacher with a bad case of the wanderlust, it can be hard during the school year when you don’t have the time or the money you need to travel.

What It's Like to Actually Float Remember when you were a kid, lying on the grass and staring up at the clouds, wondering what it would feel like to lie down and float in one of those fluffy nebulae? Well, floating in a sensory deprivation tank filled with 1000 lbs of Epsom salt in the water feels kinda like that, I imagine, only wetter! I had the privilege of floating for the first time at the chic Riviera Spa, located on Travis St. in the Knox/Henderson area of Dallas. Everything about my experience at Riviera Spa was the epitome of

Let's get back to it, shall we?? If you didn't catch Part 1 of "How Kiki Got Her Groove Back...And Then Some!", you can give it a read here. In Part 1, I explained my first two steps in my Self Discovery 101 plan, so make sure to read that first.

Let’s go back in time to 1998. I had just started my sophomore year of high school, and the album, The Miseducation of Lauryn Hill, had just been released. As a teenager, I spent hours in my bedroom listening to music, and boy did I feel like Lauryn really understood me! But looking back, it amuses me to think about my teenage relationship woes...my crush didn’t like me back, my best friend got a new boyfriend and didn’t have time for me anymore, I’d never find a boyfriend who liked me for my stick-figure physique, etc. Of course at the
Does this sound all too familiar? When you were in a relationship with your ex, your social calendar was so full, you had to turn down invitations to hang out with friends from your various social circles, just so you two could have some alone time together.

But now, now that you’re single and ready to mingle, you have to
