Escape is necessary. Modern lives demand a lot of us, sometimes 24/7. How do you escape your chaos? Do you accrue time and stress before you escape? Or do you go as needed?
Travel in the last decade has changed. Since 9/11, air travel is now a security experience. Green travel is no longer just for college students. Spas are popping up everywhere and range from your local hairdresser’s day spa to a complete resort such as Canyon Ranch. Hotel chains are falling over each other to be greener — more environmentally clean.
Our whole lifestyle is influencing how we travel. We want more than our traditional escape – we want to be renewed. Getting out of town is now a rejuvenation experience.
Tell us about your secret escapes and how you renew. Your excursion could be as simple as a nap or it could be trekking deep in the jungles of the Amazon. We want to know.

My home is like my own getaway. I like to stay home, turn off the phones and take a nap when i need to rejuvenate. I have someone come over and give me a massage once a week. My favorite thing to do is to take a walk down to the beach, go for a swim in the warm ocean (Maui) and walk back home. For me, it is easier to stay home and plan time off then to pack and get in a car or a plane to go somewhere. I love my own cooking, even more than going out to a restaurant. Friends come over, visit and eat with me, bringing me fresh flowers, fruit and wonderful surprises many times from their own gardens or farms. When I am in paradise already, why go anywhere else? I feel very fortunate to be able to be here and appreciate the magic of the moment.
