In May I traveled twice–to Sidi Bou Saïd and Belfast–with the chief purpose of reviewing hotels for Travel by Handstand. Both hotels were wonderful, thanks for asking, but the noteworthy thing for me was the realization that, in May at least, I became the sort of travel writer who flies considerable distances to review hotels. I've spent much of the last few years privately (whoops – no longer) disdaining this type of travel writer.
And so it goes.
