LandLopers Picks of the Week

1. A Dangerous Business

2. Our Tasty Travels

I had the great pleasure of meeting Erin and Brett in Vancouver recently, and quickly discovered that we all shared a love of fine travel, food and wine. These loves all come to a head in this post about the spectacular Chocolate Library at the Ritz-Carlton, Hong Kong. This is the perfect post for anyone with a sweet tooth.

3. Drifting Focus

4. Go, See, Write

Michael explored Jordan a few weeks before I did and while our schedules differed, there were some crossover experiences. Once such crossover was Madaba and the famous mosaic map found in the Church of St. George. It’s a remarkable place with an even more remarkable story, as Michael tells so well.
