During my latest stay in Paris I rented an apartment which I loved! It was a great way to experience the city like a local for a few days! So I was really excited to discover Cobble Stay. They have an incredible selection of beautiful apartments in Paris in the best locations in the city. This is perfect for honeymoon couples that want privacy and space- hotel rooms in Paris are tiny! It is also great for couples that want to cook some meals, or just have a picnic of wine, cheeses and baguettes in front of the fire place!
Here is one Cobble Stay apartment in my favorite neighborhood of Paris, Marais Magic…
Not only is the apartment itself amazing, the property is in a prime location. Marais is a really cute area filled with little boutiques and cafes.
I’m absolutely in love with the postcard backsplash in the kitchen. Isn’t it so cool??

Guess what? I am going to Thailand! I am leaving next week and will be staying in Bangkok and Chiang Mai for 2 weeks. A lot of couples have been interested in visiting Thailand for their honeymoon, so I thought it would be great to check it out myself!

I will be posting lots of tips and suggestions when I return, so be sure to check back if Thailand has been on your honeymoon wish list!
The cold, rainy weather on the West Coast has got my mind wandering to other places (as it usually does on Fridays)… Today I’m wishing I was enjoying a delicious crepe & cup of coffee at this adorable French Creperie in Paris…

Anyone care to join me?
Happy Friday everyone!

It’s quite chilly over on the West Coast right now, so I think it’s time to warm things up with a Real Honeymoon to French Polynesia! Tai & Jeff started their honeymoon adventure at The Intercontinental Resort Tahiti and then ventured to The Intercontinental Resort & Spa Moorea & the Sofitel Bora Bora Marara Beach & Private Island. The two knew they wanted a tropical beach destination and this French Polynesian combination allowed for the perfect mix of relaxation & adventure.
Their favorite memory was most definitely shark & stingray feeding in Bora Bora. Tai & Jeff spent the day out on the water, enjoying views of the beautiful island, exploring the coral gardens, & getting some one-on-one time with the sharks & stingrays. Talk about an experience they’ll never forget!
When asked if there was any advice the two would offer to other couples planning their own honeymoons, Tai said, “Go to your dream destination. Splurge a little while there, and be open to adventure. Memories are created through experiences and the memories you create on your honeymoon will last forever.” Well said! Thanks Tai & Jeff for sharing your honeymoon adventures with us!

One question I am always asked is how/when/where is the best place to get cash when traveling abroad and dealing with exchange rates. So, if you’re getting ready to jet-set somewhere fabulous for the holidays I have two words for you: DEBIT CARD.

Debit cards typically end up getting the best exchange rates, so always be sure to bring this along with you. You will need to pay a fee to use a foreign ATM, but even with the fee the exchange rate is the best. And since you will need to pay a fee for each transaction, take out larger amounts each time.
And last, always be sure to call your bank to notify them ahead of time of when and where you will be traveling. This way they won’t put your card on hold thinking the foreign charges are fraudulent.
