FLORENCE and TUSCANY
Florence, the capitol city in the Tuscany region has been long celebrated by many as the most beautiful city in Italy and I couldn't agree more. Rich in artistic and architectural history Florence is home to several museums and galleries housing important collections by such famous artists as Michelangelo, Raphael and Leonardo da Vinci. One such gallery is the Uffizi which I highly recommend however get there early. Lines can be long and you could wait up to two hours to enter. ...

How I See the World, Part 1 - My Favorite Cities
During my long career in this industry I have had the incredible opportunity to travel to the far corners of the earth and though I have done my fair share of globetrotting, the reason I haven't covered as much ground as I possibly could have is because these particular cities, London, New York, Paris and San Francisco, have called to me, they have demanded my attention. These cities have become very special to me, the cities that I have made multiple visits to, the cities that have changed my life and the way in which I see the world.

But your experience doesn't have to be like that. ...

But few people know that only about an hour and a half south on the trans-Jordanian highway is the desolate yet beautiful desert area of Wadi Rum.

Communing with the Elephants in Thailand
Located in the Golden Triangle, where Thailand, Burma and Laos meet, is a magical place where people can interact with elephants that have been saved from slavery in work camps or from a malnourished life on the streets of Bangkok. And you can stay in the middle of it all at the Four Seasons Tented Camp at Golden Triangle. I recently had the privilege to visit there and interact with the four legged residents, which is truly an experience I will never forget. The sanctuary is home to more than 30 elephants of varying ages, from 1 year old to over 50. ...
