About 90 minutes south of Cancun, some travelers might not immediately think of staying in Tulum for a longer spell, opting to delve only into the offerings of Cancun. But they’d be missing out.

 Performing at Las Vegas, MGM Grand
Trips to Las Vegas are designed to be memorable, right? After all, what happens there … (you get the picture!)
But I was in for an eye-opening journey during a recent trip. I stayed at The Aria—tres futuristic and über eco-friendly (but more on that new Vegas gem in upcoming blogs) , yet I did most of my entertaining at the MGM Grand. Specifically, I immersed myself in Cirque du Soleil’s breathtaking “KA”, which has its home at the lavish hotel. Continue reading →
