Your Body & Your Coaching App

September 25, 2026 by Patti No Comments
  • Somewhere between your Apple Watch, your blood work, your sleep tracker, and your gym app, a clear picture of your health should exist. It doesn’t. You have more data about your body than any generation in history, and almost no way to make sense of it all. huuman changes that. huuman is a health and longevity platform built on one principle: the best health decisions come from understanding your own body. Not from trends, not from influencers, not from one-size-fits-all protocols. At huuman we’re building a system that brings together the five core areas of human health (Heart, Frame, Metabolism, Recovery, and Mind) into one clear, actionable picture. Backed by science. Personalized to you. Source: huuman.life

Listening to your body and monitoring your coaching app, let’s see what that looks like.

Road Trip! A Return to Nova Scotia

July 22, 2026 by Patti 3 Comments

Updated summer 2026. We’ve been thinking of Nova Scotia quite a bit of late, with the horrible summer of wildfires the country has endured. Nova Scotia, Lunenburg in particular, is one of our treasured travel destinations. So much so that we are currently plotting a 2027 return. With that being said, we thought we’d share this post once again.

June 19, 2026 by Patti No Comments

Road Trip Travel Tips. Are you making plans and gearing up for a summer road trip? Or, for that matter, any other time of the year? Truth be told, road trips are by far my most favorite way to travel, followed by train travel which runs a close second. There’s just something really special about a road trip and the flexibility traveling by car offers.

“Roads were made for journeys, not destinations.” Confucious

Exploring Malta’s Lesser Known Towns

May 11, 2026 by Patti No Comments

Discover Malta! If you’ve spent any time in the archipelago, or even done a little research from the comfort of your home, you’ll likely already be familiar with some of Malta’s most popular spots. The capital of Valletta, the ever-lively Mellieħa Bay, and the Silent City of Mdina headline many traveler’s itineraries when visiting this part of Europe. But as tourism continues to grow in these popular spots, you may be more inclined to explore some of the island’s often overlooked towns for a more relaxed vacation.

Legend of the Capitol Stones & Columns

May 11, 2026 by Patti 7 Comments

Capitol Stones and the Columns. If you’re a bit of a history buff like the two of us, you love finding off the beaten tourist path destinations. And, you love a good garden thrown in the mix of said history. A few years ago we first discovered the Capitol Stones and the Columns; the columns are in the National Arboretum. As we continue our series of garden reviews, we thought this was a good post to dust off and republish. It is spring after all, and what better time to explore the wonders of Mother Nature?

Travelers Choose Sailing -vs- Traditional Vacays

April 7, 2026 by Patti No Comments

For decades, the standard formula for a luxury vacation was highly predictable: book a five-star beachfront resort, reserve a few crowded excursions, or secure a cabin on a massive commercial cruise ship. But as travel preferences have dramatically shifted in recent years, a new gold standard has emerged. In 2026, travelers are increasingly trading crowded hotel pools and rigid itineraries for the open ocean.

Portugal’s Retirement D7 Visa

March 12, 2026 by Patti 4 Comments

Portugal has a way of getting under your skin. The light, the coastline, the historic towns where life still unfolds at a human pace. People linger over coffee. Neighbors stop to chat. You watch that and think: I could get used to this! And, then you have to get on a plane and go home. But, did you know retired Americans can move to Portugal?
