Facebook Profile Pictures - What Does Yours Say?

What does your Facebook profile picture say about you?


I remember when I first joined Facebook, it was all about having a crazy profile picture that got you noticed. No matter if it was from a drunken night out or crazy travel experience, it went on there. I didn't give much thought for what people thought, after all, it 'was' (and supposedly still is) my own personal profile.


But…

How to Get Upgraded to Business Class

A drink even before the plane takes off, meals with actual silverware and the joy of not having to share the armrest with a stranger – simply stated, the perks of first and business class.

Here…

Cozumel Escape and Plum Lemon Sangria

As my friend Amy and I drove along the coast of Cozumel, I couldn’t tear my eyes away from the tumbling turquoise waves crashing onto the white sand beaches.
