Why Slovenia Should Be Your Next Food Destination

1 month ago | gonomad.com | Cathie Arquilla

By Cathie ArquillaGoNOMAD StaffI went truffle hunting in Slovenia with a handsome dude. His name is Matjaž Beznik, and he is the founder of Mati-Truffle. In Slovenian, “Mati” means mother, and Matjaž chose this name for his business to symbolize the unconditional love for the earth and all that it nurtures, specifically truffles. We were in the Horjul region near-ish to the restaurant Grič, where we would have a truffle tasting lunch, just west of the capital city, Ljubljana.
Downtown NYC throwdown: The best of the East and West Villages

Mar 29, 2025 | aluxurytravelblog.com | Cathie Arquilla

The East and West Village of Manhattan have been captured in books and movies and by artists and musicians. The West Village, bordering Greenwich Village, used to be a haven for eccentric artists, but these days, it’s where the trendsetters go with money to burn, seeking sophisticated surprises.

Riding high at Triple Creek Ranch - a luxury retreat in Montana

Mar 10, 2025 | aluxurytravelblog.com | Cathie Arquilla

We arrived at Triple Creek Ranch at dusk, just as the snow began to shimmer. White lights buried beneath snow-covered pine boughs glowed. Up ahead, the grand Main Lodge was a welcome sight. After my journey–a delayed flight and a rough connection, arriving at Triple Creek Ranch, I felt like a cowhand being welcomed to the Big House. The hugs from my friends and a lovely glass of wine were a homecoming to a place I’d never been.

Dec 1, 2024 | aluxurytravelblog.com | Cathie Arquilla

Holland America Line continues to build an immersive program that showcases Alaska in all its splendor and majesty. Six of their ships explore Alaska, each offering different voyages and onboard amenities. All their ships are created uniquely!

I boarded the Eurodam in September, toward the end of the season.

Alaska’s Vast Splendor and Some Worthwhile Off-Ship ExcursionsBy Cathie AquilaSenior WriterI reached an ‘Aha moment’ recently on an Alaskan cruise. I realized the beauty of planet Earth both formidable and welcoming. The sky melted into water dotted with tree-capped islands that looked like a collection of bottle brushes in silhouette poking out of the sea. Aboard Holland America’s Eurodam ship navigating through Stephen’s Passage on its way to Juneau, you see postcard views of Alaska.
A tale of two skiers and two mountain resorts in Utah

Oct 4, 2024 | aluxurytravelblog.com | Cathie Arquilla

Once, Katherine asked me, “What was your happiest moment?” I can’t remember what I said. I think it was a family Thanksgiving vacation in Barcelona, far away from eating turkey but close to Gaudi. Katherine’s happiest moment was a deep powder day, making turns down a run at Alta Ski Resort in Utah. Most advanced skiers know the feeling. It’s like your chest is full of monarch butterflies, and your mind is free from thought, although you may be humming a tune. For me, I feel supremely thankful.

Aging13 hours agoI never knew about eye floaters until I woke up with lines and dots in my eyesight. Here's what I learned about my new condition. Business Insider - Molly Millar • 13hOne day this summer, I noticed something black, like a fly, whizzing across my vision. Except this fly couldn't be swatted away.
