Arepas
Fried Snacks
Chicken & Potato Soup
Chocolate with Mozzarella Cheese
Plantains
Egg Plant
Salmon
Local Fruits
Flatbread
Dumplings with Cocoa
Cauliflower
Trout

*Not the pictured, all the Manzana 🍎 Soda’s I had.* #Staytuned for the FULL itinerary.

I needed HELP! My place was a M.E.S.S. @valsservicescleaning did a fantastic job with the Super Deep Cleaning service. I wanted them to pay extra attention to the bathroom and kitchen and as you can see it’s spotless. 🥰

Do you need help too? Follow @valsservicescleaning and request a quote, I’m sure you will love their services. 𝐔𝐬𝐞 𝐜𝐨𝐝𝐞: 𝐓𝐀𝐕𝐈𝟏𝟎 𝐚𝐧𝐝 𝐫𝐞𝐜𝐞𝐢𝐯𝐞 𝟏𝟎% 𝐨𝐟𝐟 𝐭𝐡𝐞 𝐒𝐮𝐩𝐞𝐫 𝐃𝐞𝐞𝐩 𝐂𝐥𝐞𝐚𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠. www.valsservices.com

𝙂𝙪𝙚𝙨𝙨 𝙒𝙝𝙖𝙩?!? @ZinzanniChicago production has been extended through February 16th due to popular demand! It’s an unforgettable experience and performances are every week on the 14th floor of the @Cambriachicagoloop hotel. The show brings a unique blend of dynamic elements and aerial contortion. I highly recommend you get the tickets that come with the four course meal. 😋

👀 Views at the Monserrate in Bogota, Colombia 🇨🇴

How’d I get here? On a direct flight on @avianca. Avianca now flys direct from Chicago to Bogota.

I started 2024 with a fantastic vacay in Colombia.

I started 2024 with a fantastic vacay in Colombia. I’m back! 🙋🏾‍♀️This time on a #Presstrip in the capital city of Bogota. We’re going to have 3 Jam packed days of adventures. Media/Press trips are normally jam packed because they want you to see EVERYTHING. 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐜𝐤 𝐨𝐮𝐭 𝐰𝐡𝐚𝐭 𝐃𝐚𝐲 𝐎𝐧𝐞 𝐞𝐧𝐭𝐚𝐢𝐥𝐞𝐝:

Started off with a small breakfast at the hotel.

Driver picked us up to take us to an art gallery. Then did a graffiti arts walking tour.

Handed us off to the next tour guide where we toured historical Bogota while having traditional dishes along the way (Arepas, empanadas, etc)

Explored local market (Plaza de Mercado La Persevrancia) and tried a traditional chicken and potato soup.

Went to the San Francisco Church

Went to taste hot Chocolate with Mozzarella cheese. (Controversial pairing 🫣) at Chocolateria

Fabulous Dinner at @Chicheriademente

Celebrate “𝘿𝙞𝙖 𝙙𝙚 𝙡𝙖𝙨 𝙑𝙚𝙡𝙞𝙩𝙖𝙨” light ceremony. A tradition that marks the beginning of Christmas. (I made a wish) 🥰

It’s super fun…. But non-stop. Have you been to Colombia? I’ll show you the FULL itinerary on an upcoming blog post. 😊 I loved our guides took us to soooo many local spots 🙌🏾

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s @Emirates Premium Economy cabin launching in Chicago. ✈️ I was invited onboard for an exclusive behind-the-scenes tour of the new retrofitted B777. I actually flew Emirates (Economy) when I went to Africa in the Fall so this was fun getting a 👀 at #Premiumlife

FUN FACTS:
✈️ Emirates is expanding its Premium Economy class to more destinations. By early 2025, you can enjoy this premium cabin on flights to over 40 cities across the Emirates network.

✈️ 6-way adjustable headrests, Generous pitch of up to 40 inches, are 19.5 inches wide, and recline 8 inches into a comfortable cradle position with ample room to stretch out. Other great additions include calf and footrests, in-seat charging points and a side cocktail table. Each seat contains a 13.3” screen – one of the largest in its class.

✈️ Welcome drinks are served in fine glassware, accompanied by a refreshing towel.

✈️ 3-course meal made with seasonal ingredients and regional influences. Meals are served on Royal Doulton china tableware with stainless steel cutlery wrapped in a linen napkin.

✈️ Emirates’ network and increase in services allow for seamless connectivity between the U.S. and Europe, Asia, Africa and the Middle East, to around 140 destinations.
