Travel

These are notes from trips I've taken, written the way I'd tell a friend who's planning her own. I try to cover what a place was really like, what I'd do again, what I'd skip, and what I wish I'd known before going.

What I cover

• Weekend trips you can make from the New York and New Jersey area
• Longer vacations, both abroad and around the US
• Practical notes on planning, timing, and what things cost
