Why Paris?

It’s the cliche, you have heard it so many times. Ask a woman where she wants to go and the answer is Paris 8 out of 10 times. Yes, I choose Paris too. My obsession is with more than the views, the tower, the wine or the legendary food.

The average traveller

You will find many glorious travel blogs and sites of the most beautiful resorts around the globe. You can find lists of what to pack in matching luggage. Gosh, the world is full of travel bloggers who take amazing photos that leave you wanting to up and leave your day job and travel the world. I am not that travel blogger. I live to travel and discover new places. Sometimes that includes places right down the road. Sometimes it involves a long haul flight or two. I am average. I travel on an average budget, I travel with average luggage and gadgets but I tell extraordinary stories.

  • Hi. I’m Lydia. My AirPods are glued to my ears when I work. My moleskin is bursting at the seems and my head is somewhere between a spread sheet and the clouds. I have not had a day off in 10 months. And I’ve realized that if I don’t take a little time off now a hell of a lot of balls are going to drop. When your heart races then drops every time a client calls (even the LOVELY ones that I’d do anything for) it’s time to step away for a while. I love my work. I even love it when it doesn’t work out because it gives me an opportunity to go a new route. I work hard. I love it. I honestly love being busy. But I need time off. I need time away from emails. From things that need to be fixed. Things that need immediate attention. I need a break. Here’s hoping I can take a few days next week and make a long weekend. If you’re crying at your laptop drop me a DM. I’ll cry with you.
  • I mean. Do I have to go work?
  • I don’t mind this part.
  • Cellars are exciting places.
  • There she is. @clarovodka
  • I love my work. I’m one of those annoying people who LOVES their job. 2020 did a number on alcohol. We have worked harder and faster than ever before. And for the first time this year. I’m taking some time “off”. By off I mean away from my emails, but still working. It’s not even season yet.
