Discover a perfect getaway in the intimate six room hotel .santisima.trinidad (between San Miguel de Allende and Dolores Hidalgo). The new highway will make for a great drive to this wonderland. So if you have been wanting to stay in a hotel-vineyard, which BTW also has a great restaurant overlooking a lagoon, grape harvest season is always the best time (Aug thru October). Don't miss their amazing lotions, olive oil, and, of course, their award-winning wine, which are all for sale in the store. We enjoyed the restaurant and walked the grounds this time, but the tranquil surroundings were calling for a staycation, maybe next time...

Yesterday marked 71 years since Frida Kahlo died, yet she continues to live on in the many women that identify with her for their own reasons. Personally, I am proud and not surprised that this icon of today’s modern woman is Mexican. Strong-minded women who, despite their challenges, refuse to be silent in a man’s world and still manage to infuse humor into their lives. Frida did not allow her medical conditions, nor her cheating husband to stand in her way of her artistic genius or her life. I've always respected strong, daring yet caring women, women like Frida, do it their way! Frida, I hope your “exit was joyful,” but as far as hoping to “never return”, I am sorry to say, you never left. You will forever be ETERNAL…

There once was a lady from Asia who arrived in Puebla back in 1620 wearing a colorful and sequined dress which would become the epitome of traditional Mexican style. She was known as the China Poblana. Legend or not, a woman named Catarina de San Juan, aka the China Poblana did exist, and she lived in this very house now transformed into the beautiful where we enjoyed a 5star stay in a room with original finishes, woke up listening to church bells followed by breakfast (included) outside our room and making it very hard for us to leave this stunning Casona!!

So glad we stopped at Val'Quirico on the way back to from Puebla last week. It was so much fun pretending we were in Tuscany!

Did you know that one of the world’s most beautiful libraries is in Puebla?

It was hard to keep my eyes focused on anything else other than the thousands of antique books that surrounded me as I walked into the Biblioteca Palafoxiana in downtown Puebla City, but the gilded altar and gorgeous Tal...
