Before a busy Disney World trip, we were looking for pure relaxation and beach time and chose Baker’s Cay Resort Key Largo. This fairly small resort is part of the Curio Collection by Hilton and has more individuality and contemporary island style than you’d expect from a chain hotel. Baker’s Cay is one of the few hotels in the Florida Keys with a sandy beach (most on the island chain are rocky), which was a big factor in our decision to stay there. The lush, tree-filled grounds add…

Options have moved beyond cheese pizza to diverse dishes that are genuinely delicious. Many restaurants (especially the newer ones) now offer plant-based meals, too. Most of our highlights below are vegan. In this post, I share my tips for eating vegetarian at Disney World Orlando and our favourite places to eat at each of Disney’s four parks (both Quick Service and Table Service restaurants).

To get screened for cervical cancer, patients in the United States may no longer need to put their feet in those awkward stirrups, brace for the uncomfortable speculum or even take the time off from work for an in-person doctor’s appointment. Soon, they will have the option to collect their own vaginal samples for screening from home – instead of a health care provider doing it for them. The US Food and Drug Administration has approved the first at-home self-collection device for cervical cancer screening in the United States, called the Teal Wand, according to the women’s health company Teal…

For Walt Disney World in Orlando, Florida, a week is our typical length for a trip. It’s enough to visit all four parks, some several times, and have a rest day (although Simon could always stay longer). There are infinite ways to plan a 7 day Disney World itinerary, but in this post, I share ours from our last trip in November to give you ideas on how…

This small Norwegian city, located on an island 350km north of the Arctic Circle, is a true winter wonderland, surrounded by snowy mountains and stunning fjords. There are so many amazing things to do in Tromso in winter, from husky dog sledding to cross-country skiing. It’s also one of the best places to see the northern lights—the biggest draw for many visitors. In this guide, I share our favourite Tromso winter activities and some you might skip. I also include…

We visited in winter and loved the island’s stunning fjords, snowy mountains, golden sandy beaches, frozen lakes, and colourful fishing villages. It’s also a top spot for seeing the northern lights. It has a remote feel but is easily accessible across the bridge from Tromso Airport. We spent three nights on Kvaloya Island, but you could visit as a day trip from Tromso, either driving yourself or taking…
Synthetic chemicals called phthalates, found in consumer products such as food storage containers, shampoo, makeup, perfume and children’s toys, may have contributed to more than 10% of all global mortality from heart disease in 2018 among men and women ages 55 through 64, a new study found. “Phthalates contribute to inflammation and systemic inflammation in the coronary arteries, which can accelerate existing disease and lead to acute events including mortality,” said senior author Dr. Leonardo Trasande, a professor of pediatrics and population health at New York University’s Grossman School of Medicine. He also is director of NYU Langone’s Division of…
