I usually travel on my own to the Keys, but this time, I was invited on a very lovely press trip with fellow bloggers.  Typically, I spend time on Duval Street, checking out restaurants, music, bars, museums and visiting Fort Zachary Taylor beach -- just a few of my favorite things to do in the lower Keys. But this time, I never left The Reach or Casa Marina resorts and for some very good reasons! It was utterly romantic and relaxing at this time of year.

There was also a delicious meal at The

Romance on a Plane

You are a single corporate road warrior (or pretending to be one).

 

Maybe you are divorced or separated or never married.

 

Maybe you like women. Maybe you like men. Maybe you like goats.

 

As long as you are happy it’s not anyone’s business (except maybe the goat).

 

You head off on another business trip overseas.

You get settled in

Spain is an eclectic and beautiful country. Spain was ruled from 1939 to 1975 by Dictator Francisco Franco. This regime wanted to unify Spain and outlaw regional languages and promoting the Roman Catholic Church. He also wanted to cut off Spain from other countries. After his death in 1975, King Juan Carlos 1 returned to democracy. So began a night culture called La Movida and artistic expressions including music, art and fun.

The currency in Spain is the Euro.

Spain has 4,964 km of coastline.

Why We Are Sexier On The Road

And we did short video at TVP, Travel As An Aphrodisiac that makes the poin

In search of romantic couples or at least couples seeking a sexy stay, hotels promoted “intimacy kits” in their mini bars just a few years ago
Happily, the Thompson Hotel in New York still stocks its mini bars with condoms, cinnamon mints, scented cloths, personal lubricants and feather ticklers for libidinous couples.
But a spokesperson cooly downplayed their availability by telling me they don’t promote the kits any more, not the way they used to. “They’re just there for the clie

This travel cohort feels like second class citizens.
They’re not swingers.
Not looking for wild parties.
They want quality vacations that let them connect with other single
parents, and they want attention paid to them and their kids.
