      <image:title>Journal - Venice, But Make it Non-Touristy - This time, I upgraded it a notch. I was greeted by a charming man at the helm of a lacquered mahogany private water taxi glistening in the morning Venetian light. Sunglasses on, luggage handed off, and clad in white linen pants and a nautical top, I took my rightful place standing in the back letting the wind blow through my hair as we glided down the Grand Canal to my hotel, Palazzina Grassi. There I was welcomed at their private entrance, given a cappuccino in the restaurant, and then escorted to my stunning Grand Canal Suite. I flung open the arched windows, saw the gondolas floating below, listened to the bells of St. Mark's Basilica tolling out the time, and took it all in. Principessa mode activated.</image:title>

      <image:title>Journal - The Night My Airline Disappeared - Spirit Airlines’ recent bankruptcy and shutdown stopped me in my tracks. First and most importantly, my heart goes out to the Spirit employees, their families, and the travelers who were suddenly left scrambling. Airline collapses are never just business headlines. They are human stories. They ripple outward through missed connections, disrupted plans, lost paychecks, and people trying to make sense of what happens next. As travel so often does, the news brought me back to a moment from my own journey. One that began in Paris.</image:title>
