Key West might be small, but it’s packed full with some great places to eat. The culinary scene on the island has dramatically taken off and with events such as the Key West Food & Wine Festival that takes place each January, more and more visitors are flocking over to experience what the island has to offer. 2016 was the seventh year of the Food & Wine Festival, and included a week of events ranging from walk-around tastings to educational wine and food seminars, in addition to more local and “funky” events that one would only experience in Key West. With some of the freshest seafood in the word and unique local ingredients combined with gorgeous year-round weather, the Key West food scene is worth exploring.

Ok, we all basically have some sort of fascination with celebrities, whether we openly admit it or not, and what’s better than being able to brag on social media that you just had a celebrity spotting, or went to a place where one of your favorites frequents?! The good news is that celebrities are people and people basically go everywhere in LA, so if you happen to be hanging anywhere in the massive LA area, your chances of spotting someone that looks recognizable, are better than say someone visiting Appleton, Wisconsin. The greater Los Angeles area is full of places known for celebrity sightings but we’ve narrowed it down to a very short list of some well-known as well as some more secret spots that many don’t know about, and all have had some celeb action in recent months, so the next time you are in LA, check out some of these hot spots and regardless if you see someone you recognize or not, they are all worth a visit anyways and they will all automatically up your LA game.

Travelers are on the road a lot more now whether for business or pleasure and brand loyalty is no longer something that keeps a guest coming back for more because there are just so many options out there that are reaching out to this new type of traveler. Major hotel brands have all developed or have begun to develop their more “hip” and cost-effective brand. Andaz, W Hotels, Aloft and Canopy are all examples of brands attracting younger travelers, but although they are reasonably priced, they are still not by any means considered budget. There is definitely a market for more money-saving hotels and motels but most travelers don’t want to stay in them, or at least admit to staying in them when on a trip because they come with preconceived stigmas. But one brand that dominates this particular market is taking perspectives into account and really making massive changes to head in a new direction to appeal not only to the budget traveler, but to the mid-scale market as well.
