Views from The Standard Hotel

One of my dearest friends turn 30, at the end of March. To celebrate he had a lovely brunch for 20 of his closest friends. The Standard Hotel Grill at Chelsea, was a great venue to hold such a special event which included a private wine room and views of the entire city.

La Fortuna, Costa Rica

The beauty of Costa Rica’s Mountain region is incredible. The Arenal Volcano, which is active, is visible around 60 days a year, so I feel very lucky to have caught a glimpse. The rainforest and its wildlife make this region come alive with excitement everyday.

There is an endless amount of great places to lounge and experience the endless adventure of the area. I stayed at The Springs Resort and it was nothing short of spectacular. The Springs had amazing food, service, activities and private areas to relax on your own. Literarily, the best all encompassing resort I’ve vacationed with by providing over 20 hot springs and it’s own adventure compound of white water kayaking, horse back riding, zoo, rock wall climbing, bird watching and much more.

Pura Vida!!!!
