Travel Bug?

It's summer, so who doesn't have the travel bug? This is kind of fun. I found it on Travel Channel. Check it out!

Events in the Sky

Wow! Can you imagine eating dinner floating in the sky? Well, did you know that you could actually have that experience? There's also a Marriage in the Sky, Meetings in the Sky, and Showbizz in the Sky. Can you imagine putting a fork full of mashed potatoes in your mouth and looking at eye level to see a grand piano floating above the treetops?

Sneaky Sunday

Here's the inside scoop on a hot new site to check out for a night, or day, on the town. 

Summer's officially here, and that often means people are taking time off for vacation. There are some of us who globetrot and don't mind looking like a tourist, then there are others who would rather fit into the character of the city while oohing and ahhing in private. If you'd rather not look like a tourist while visiting a new city, then you should check out this new website by a fellow Portfolio Center alum, Sneaky Sunday. This website is like a cross between a Zagat guide and Time Out magazine, but more "boutiquish" and upscale. You'll find sneaky hot spots around town that only natives know about. The services are free, and no one pays to be ranked on the site. Check out an example of some of the videos you will find on the site to inform you of places to check out. The video below is about Tangerine, a Chicago women's clothing boutique.

How are the venues ranked? Sneaky Sunday has over 120 “Sneaky Reps” across the country who choose which venues should be listed, and how they should be ranked. In each city, there is at least one expert who maintains the site for that particular city.  “Sneaky Reps” fit the demographics of the venues which are 24-38 year old business travelers and young professionals who know their city well. 

Have a fab Thursday and a great weekend!
