Kathy Petrino appreciates her role as a travel blogger, which is why she is sure to provide lots of insight on the places she visits. She truly wants them to have a great trip when they follow her to the best travel destinations. Kathy Petrino’s strong sense of adventure makes her want readers to see everything, including places like Las Vegas, Nevada. Not only is Las Vegas one of the most popular destinations in the world, it also ranks as one of Kathy Petrino’s favorites. It’s not just because “everything in Vegas stays in Vegas,” but because it is just fun.

Kathy Petrino wants readers to know here is something to see and do for everyone in the family, even if they don’t like to gamble. There are few places in the world more accommodating than Las Vegas and that is one reason it often ranks among the least expensive travel destinations anywhere. There is so much inexpensive and free entertainment available in Las Vegas, it makes the place very impressive. For instance, you can watch free circus acts at Circus Circus, or you can view the Eiffel Tower at one hotel, the canals of Venice at another, and the Manhattan skyline at year another. And if you think everything looks great from street level, you should see it all from the many helicopter and plane operations in the area. They make everything seem even more impressive.

There is a reason why Kathy Petrino loves to write about her travels. She is passionate about seeing everything in the world worth seeing and she loves to share. This is why she enthusiastically writes about every trip she takes and why she is intent on seeing to it that as many people as possible have as much fun as she does. She does write about every aspect of her trip, though, out of a desire to make sure her readers avoid the occasional pitfalls that come with travel all over.

One of her favorite travel destinations is the Napa Valley in California. Of course, that destination has changed quite a bit over the years. A trip to the Napa Valley actually meant heading “up-valley,” to quaint little towns like Oakville, Yountville, St. Helena, and Calistoga. People still go to those places, but quite often they simply stay in downtown Napa, with it’s great hotels and top-of-the-line restaurants, great nightlife and more. These days, many visitors use Napa as their launch pad, from which they visit all of the great sites in Napa Valley.

Oh, one more thing. The vineyards are beautiful and the wine is tasty, but there is so much more to see and do in Napa Valley. For example, a short drive away is di Rosa, which is an art preserve out on the Carneros Highway that can boast of having the most significant holdings contemporary art in the entire Bay Area, if not the entire world. After your art adventure, you can cross the highway to the French chateaux Domaine Carneros for a sparkling wine or pinot noir tasting. Scattered throughout the area, all within a few miles of Napa are so many places to visit and so many sights to see, you may find it difficult to choose.
