NYC Street Art : Walk Around the Lower East Side
We recently had the pleasure of a day off in old stomping grounds, New York City. As we ambled aimlessly through the Lower East Side and Alphabet City, enjoying some snacks and adult beverages, we couldn’t help but snap some photos of some great NYC street art. Everything from stickers and wheatpaste pieces to full-building painted murals and […]

Fathom Travel: Cruising for a Change
A Social Impact Cruise for Non-Cruisers I have to be honest. We have never been drawn to cruising.
