The Almost Affair to Remember…
I go to Paris often on business but that doesn’t mean I ever take it for granted. When I spend time in Paris, it’s as if I live there. I frequent the local markets, even though I’m only taking fruit back to my hotel room. I eat in local cafes, and I walk and read in…

Last Tango…
It’s not tango music but the steps are there. And this is probably my last post on the subject for a little while. I’m hoping to find a milonga or two on my upcoming trips to The Big Easy and Tokyo.

It’s Not You…
In the last five years of being single, I have had my fair share of happiness and heartbreak. In the beginning, I had a fairly steep learning curve but luckily I am a quick study. The most important thing I’ve learned is that heart is a muscle; it can be bruised but not broken. So…

Lost in the desert…
I have been exiled in a nondating desert for the past several months now. Ever since my return from Italy, when I started writing a book and now my blog, it’s as if the love gods have decided do away with all distractions and keep me focussed. I haven’t gone this long without at least some…

Busy Dancing Tango…

It’s All About the Shoes…
My first stop on my trip was to the Tango shoe store, Comme Il Faut (loosely translated, it means as is necessary) to purchase a pair of dancing shoes. And we all know how necessary shoes are to women. And if sexy shoes are necessary to women in general, the right Tango shoes are essential to…

Arrived…
It’s funny how it’s the simple things these days that give me the most pleasure. That’s not to say that I won’t appreciate the week I will be spending in BsAs. It will be my own personal version of Eat, Dance, Sleep. The intensive Tango tour that I booked last month via the Internet promised…

Maple Leaf Lounge – Montreal
I have a half an hour wait before they call the flight to DC with a later onward connection to BsAs. I am traveling without my laptop and I must admit I feel a bit naked and a little anxious. I keep reaching for a computer bag that isn’t there. The IT guys didn’t get…
