  • Rome. A storyteller’s dream.
  • What do you do with two late night hours in Rome? Take a taxi and Join the throngs for a late night summer dinner in Trastervere. Oh, and one last carb meal for the road. This is Flatbread wood fired pizza, 4 organic flours “leavened for 24 hours” with raw arugula, buffalo mozzarella, and organic prosciutto. The cold hot combo and smiling service was really enjoyable!
  • Writing under the Italian sun. #Sirolo
  • With my beautiful friend Anna Urquhart who writes exquisitely, travels like a warrior, and practically belly laughs a melody. Yes, that makes sense. I’m so glad I didn’t have to figure out the map of Scotland to cover the wild heather like we did. Thanks to the most delightful Afton and wonderful Reay (and Tony and family) for making me feel like I belong. Thin Places in every pocket.
  • Falling in love with Bloom—this sweet, spectacular coffee shop in Troon, Scotland. This is a MUST-STOP! Gluten-free eggs Benedict with smoked salmon on the way! @bloomcoffeekitchen #glutenfree #dairyfree #startup
  • True friends take cool photos of you when you’re not looking. Thank you, @anna_urquhart for letting me hitch on your wagon this week. What a treat to stare into the Scottish mist in the morn and serene sunsets at night. I love this wild and wonderful country! If you’re a Reid from Perth, we might be related just a wee bit.
  • When in Scotland during the Women’s World Cup...scones and scores. Go Team US!!
  • Get in mah belly, ye almond milk mocha. Time to stop indulging starting tomorrow. Darn, the fare is scrumptious here in the Highlands.
  • The Seafood Shack in Ullapool, Scotland. Oh, my, goodness. Highly recommend! #seafood #chef #mackerelpate #scottishfood
