Since March, I – like many of you – sheltered in place. For me, that meant south Florida with Anthony, son Dominick and in close proximity of my in-laws. With the exception of desperately missing my daughter (quarantined in NJ), I truly can’t complain. Being in a warm climate with my hubby has been both […]

While I wait for dinner to be served, Paul Szkiler joins me at a firepit while waiters mix gin and tonics in crystal tumblers. “The nearest tarmac road is six […]

Travel advisor Charissa Popp was familiar with South America – having visited Argentina, Brazil, Peru and Uruguay. But she had never been to Chile. Or Tierra hotels (Atacama, Patagonia, Chiloe).

Elegantly vintage, Sonop features ten one- and two-bedroom tents – each set on a boulder offering panoramic desert views, and styled with a 1920s British colonial vibe.
