Whimsical tales of travel & lifestyle
As much as I love New York, escaping its torrid summer days is my greatest pleasure. And for this 4th of July, there was no other place I would have rather been than by a breezy waterfront. This is how the idea of Newport came about, quite randomly I might say.
