A few months ago, my husband and I were having drinks on the terrace of a luxury hotel here in Cabo called Esperanza. Not our usual activity, we went, mainly to see the venue. Cabo is well-known for its destination weddings and by coincidence, that evening, there was a marriage ceremony taking place at the resort.

This week we are voyaging on the Eastern Cape to do some exploring. Our destination: Cabo Pulmo National Park. It’s a different type of beach experience and I hope to report back about what is reputed to be some of the world’s best snorkeling. This will be a different experience than my usual seaside sojourns at the local Medano Beach. There you can find us on our chairs near Tabasco’s … Read More

I am what many have called a type A personality, Sitting still was not my natural state. I always felt like I was wasting time. When I first started going to yoga classes 10 years ago, I really didn’t get it. I found myself questioning the pace, the meditation, the chanting, and the lingo.
