This sister trip was many years in the making

My sister and I have always been close in the kind of way that only siblings with a two-year age gap can be. We grew up sharing everything from wardrobes to the same old hand-me-down phone.

8 Pet Peeves of a Hotel Writer

As a traveler, I've been privileged. Not due to family wealth or a secret benefactor, but the fortune of falling into a travel writing career that has included 10,000 hours, and then some, at hotels and resorts around the world. These stays - sometimes comped, sometimes not; sometimes incognito, sometimes not - are turned into reviews, guides, listings, features, profiles, round-ups for print and online publications. Topics run the gamut, too, from service, amenities and facilities to design, architecture and technology.

Why You Should Always Put Your Luggage in the Hotel Bathtub

But before you flop down on the bed or open up your suitcase to grab some fresh clothes, there's one thing you should do first, and that's put your luggage in the hotel room's bathtub or shower. No, it's not because suitcases are covered in germs and you should be mindful about where you put them (although that's another consideration). Rather, it's to keep your luggage away from any fabric surfaces, like bedding or carpets, where bed bugs-the bane of all travelers-may be hiding.
