You can spot your luggage easily with these luggage tags! I love that you can personalize them.

Fun in the Sun: Stand-Up Paddle Boarding

Try something new this summer like stand-up paddle boarding.  It's a great core workout and fun to do with friends and family. My friend Marta Tracy recommended it to me last summer when we first moved to LA. It's important to take a lesson on land first and then try doing it in calm waters your first time.
