I’m finally grounded and home from a busy month of traveling. I have a confession to make – when I am away, it’s really hard for me to stay focused on what’s going on in the world of points and miles; I often find myself scrambling and sorting through days worth of “news” to scope … [Read More…]
Two Budget Hotel Options in Tokyo
Dad and I recently visited Tokyo last month on a whim. Naturally, we did some “homework” to ensure that we were getting a good value at a quality clean and convenient place to stay. The last time I visited Tokyo in September, I stayed at the Sheraton for one night using points, and then for … [Read More…]
Sydney Day Trip Idea: Featherdale Wildlife Park
Of course, a “must-do” while visiting Australia is getting up close and personal with some of Australia’s unique wildlife. I don’t know about you, but I can’t recall ever having a one-on-one encounter with a koala, kangaroo, or wallaby in my NJ backyard, so as an animal lover, I was definitely looking forward to seeing … [Read More…]
Let’s Meet: NYC Reader Meet Up Next Week
One of my favorite things about the points and miles community is actually talking about travel face-to-face during a social gathering. What started as an idea for a casual, intimate meet-up with a just a handful of people, has now become a rather large event with over 90 people expected to attend; I couldn’t be … [Read More…]
Dad Post: Seoul, South Korea Layover Tips & My Korean Spa Experience
A few weeks ago, Angelina and I made sudden changes to our Australia trip by adding a few nights in Tokyo before heading home.

Hotel Review: Park Hyatt Tokyo
Happy Easter, all! I just returned back home after an amazing two-week trip with Dad to San Francisco, Singapore, Sydney, Melbourne, and Tokyo. At the tail end of the trip, it’s safe to say that I knocked an aspirational hotel stay off my bucket list, as we spent our last night at the legendary Park … [Read More…]
Two Things That Amused Me Today
In an hour, I am leaving Australia (sad face), but I am headed to Tokyo to meet up with Mommy Points and other frequent flyers for a few days, so I’m looking forward to that before arriving back home in NY. Two things amused me today at the airport. The first is probably old news, … [Read More…]
Sydney Day Trip Idea: Exploring the Blue Mountains Without an Organized Tour
**Post edited with updated information on 3/18/16** Sydney has made it up the list as one of favorite cities I’ve visited. Getting around the city is incredibly easy, so we felt quite confident to venture out on two fun day trips during our 4-day stay. Our first trip was to the Blue Mountains, using the … [Read More…]
10 Signs I Might Be Too Addicted to Points and Miles… According to My iPhone
One thing I can appreciate about having an iPhone is its “smartphone” capabilities. I enjoy that it always seems to know what I’m thinking, using predictive intelligence, based on how I use it. That usually helps me become more efficient, but sometimes I laugh a little when my iPhone seems to “call me out” on … [Read More…]
