It’s hard to believe that in just a few days, we will be saying good-bye to July and heading into the final month of summer with Labor Day weekend just around the corner. By now, we hope you’ve had time to do some of things you had planned when summer first started. But, if not, there’s still time to plan a trip and make the most of the rest of

Last week, our team hosted a great group of travel and real estate writers from the New York Post, Islands, Unique Homes and Caribbean Living in the British Virgin Islands, where they got to know our clients, Biras Creek Resort, North Sound Yacht Club and Oil Nut Bay. We took in the sights, had a few local libations and learned all about what it means to vacation and live like

There a lot of things that are great about summer: warm weather, BBQ’s, wearing flip-flops, shedding your pale winter skin and New Belgium’s Skinny Dip beer, to name a few. But vacations and all the great sporting events that take place during the summer months are two things that definitely top my list. Fortunately, if you’re a sports junkie like me, you can incorporate seeing your favorite competition played out

There actually is a right way to travel…and here it is… As I sit here planning my upcoming trip to Portugal and Northern Spain, I peruse the guidebooks for the umpteenth time and try to recall the countless recommendations I’ve received from people I know who have been there.  But then I start thinking about what I really want to get out of this adventure.  And that’s when I decided

This may be surprising to those who know me well, but there was a time when I was not a very adventurous eater. It wasn’t until I spent time living abroad, in places far from western cuisine, that I discovered the exhilaration of trying something with a totally new texture or unexpected flavor. From street food in Manaus to the spiciest sauce on the planet in Sumatra, I am a

Sun, sand, some R&R and a cool Piña Colada – Isn’t that what we are all craving as spring taunts us with sun and 70’s one day and snow the next? Ideally in the springtime I’d like to be somewhere with my toes in the sand and gazing at the turquoise Caribbean. Although Colorado does not present this option, with Turner’s recently secured client, the Riviera Maya, I can at

A new regular feature from The Spin Kitchen, sharing our encyclopedia of road warrior knowledge earned by countless hours on the road. I’m writing this from the comfort of my hotel room (suite, really, but who’s counting) on Virgin Gorda in the British Virgin Islands. This happens to be one of my favorite places in the world, a small collection of lush volcanic islands nestled between the Atlantic and the

Turner PR spent last weekend in Utah. Unlike others who visit the Beehive State, we chose to ditch the world’s biggest dinosaur footprints and visit Sundance instead. The streets were filled with sheepskin boots, artsy folk and slush. We loved every minute of our stay and look forward to doing it all over again next year. Aside from stellar weather, random celeb sightings and brilliant films, we fancied the locals

In Turner PR’s Denver office, we work with hotels and real estate developments across the U.S., Canada, Mexico and the Caribbean. In order to best paint a picture to the media about our clients’ outstanding amenities, locations and dining, we always make sure we experience it first. That means a lot of travel.

The Turner PR Denver team attended a luncheon yesterday about “The Digital Future of Travel Media:  Print, Online & Bloggers.”  Hosted by PRSA Colorado and PRSA Travel & Tourism, the lunch featured a panel of leading experts on digital travel content, who discussed issues surrounding travel media including:  the type of content that is surviving these days and the trends we can expect in 2010. Overall, the tone was exceedingly
