Things We Loved This Month: Adventures in French Polynesia

The very best things that made a month of travel and work that much easier.

October got away from me this year. One moment, everyone was eagerly awaiting the release of all things pumpkin spice at the end of September, and the next thing I knew, it was Halloween.

Perhaps it's because I didn't spend much of October actually in a classic autumnal environment—the leaves were just starting to change and I was barely in need of a light sweater when I headed to JFK to embark on a trip that ended in French Polynesia early on in the month.

By the time I landed back in New York two weeks later, the air was nothing short of crisp.

I travel relatively frequently for work, but this particular long-haul adventure reminded me that certain products, places and experiences will always stand a step above the rest.
