I didn't take the Orient Express, but a few years ago, I studied abroad in Turkey, and afterward I traveled from Istanbul to Paris to meet up with my boyfriend, and it was very romantic. :) Definitely not a "luxury voyage," though... I was pretty broke. Escaping Aboard the Orient Express |

I got my office rug through Amazon! It was only $50 and it is great. I couldn't believe all the IKEA stuff I found on there. I've never been to an IKEA store in person but it was fun to browse online. 5 Places To Shop For IKEA When There Isn't One Around |

I live in Reno now, but lived in Minden, NV for high school and before that I lived in the Bay Area, so I've had a pretty good sense of big city life, small town living, and now mid-sized city living. I think I've found a great balance in Reno--we have some amazing, world class museums, entertainment and art, and we have a rich technology/DIY culture, and we have an extensive history of farming and agriculture. If I want to go downtown to the river and have dinner at a swanky place before going to watch a live band, I can--or I can go hiking in the hills right behind my house, and go to the farmers market afterward. Sometimes I miss San Francisco and the excitement of it all; other days I miss riding my bike past fields of cows and goats like I used to in high school. There are wonderful things about both big cities and small towns. It would be nice if residents could appreciate where they lived instead of trying to out-do one another. 10 Reasons I Love Living in a Small Town |

I'm so bored with Macs being featured all the time on this website. Does no one use Windows or Linux on a ThinkPad or something? With all of the amazing technology available nowadays, it seems like a lack of creativity to continue to buy into the whole Apple trend. Coolest Home Offices on Instagram |

I like the idea of mothers learning about smart business practices, but does everything they do have to be defined by their mom status? Can't they just be business people?

Rainmeter is a good alternative for Windows users (and there are plenty of KDE settings for Linux users). A lot of Rainmeter skins come with some really nice desktop clocks and other cool widgets that can help with efficiency. 5 Desk Tidying Solutions for Organized Style |

I really like the idea of temporary wall paper but I swear I can't find anything that's not a floral pattern. I want something with some nice bright colors but with more abstract patterns. Removable Wallpapers by Style: Floral Renters Solutions |

I wish Nevada wasn't always overlooked... we are part of the West too, you know. I would be happy to help scavenge around for items in Nevada! Dining Chairs, Vintage Cupboard & More Western Daily Scavenger 3.21.2012 |

Love this! I am generally not at all a fan of pink but I've been a bit obsessed lately with using it as a high contrast accent color. Love the table legs, and I love the grey room with pink couches. Blush to Bold: Pink Accents & Focal Points |

Hmm I like this in theory but I'm not sure if I like the execution of it. The red and the purple ones are pretty neat. Would be a cute idea in a coffee shop or something. DIY Inspiration: Stacked Table Shelving |

That picture looks like it's an EDC (every day carry). EDC stresses minimalism and functionality. That would be a cool feature for this site.
