Florence, exotic locales, lack of posts


It's unfortunate that I am lazy and rarely take the time to update this thing...and for that I am sorry.

Off to Florence tomorrow, should be a nice, quick trip...looking forward to being back and chilling for a week or so (the last month has been so busy!).

Lately I've been thinking a lot about various places in America that I would like to spend more time...on vacation, for property investment...just something. Here is a working list:

1 - Miami (Coconut Grove, Coral Gables, somewhere near the water...)
*tropical, beautiful, colorful natural environment, exotic south-american influence, sunsets, cuban food

2 - Portland, Or (Lake Oswego, downtown Portland)
*almost complete opposite of Miami (big dark trees, lakes, mountain feel)...less hyped than Seattle, good schools, amazing liberal climate

3 - Palm Springs, Ca (pictured above)
*desert climate is fantastic, natural environment is gorgeous, housing is very retro, cool, people are relaxed...every house has a huge pool!

4 - New York City
*never thought I would feel this way, but NYC really is amazing. Crazy, yes, nuts, yes, annoying and enfuriating, of course...but equally interesting, full of characters, and of course, the cutting edge of fashion/business/commerce
