What we’re about
This meetup is a collective of creative and curious souls who want to be inspired by the world and each other. Whether it’s a visit to a Museum in New York, a concert in Princeton or watching the sunset on a junk in Ha Long Bay, we can share the wonders together.
A little about me…. I’ve been a professional photographer for over 18 years. I’ve actually been designated a Master photographer by the Professional Photographers of America (PPA). I am one of the few women to have this distinction. I’m also a lover of travel, food, art, music, theater and great conversation! This group should satisfy my many pleasures. I presently also facilitate Princeton Fine Dining also. Whether you are a painter, a writer, a photographer, a musician, a gourmet, an architect or just someone who enjoys all the wonders and culture of the world, please join me. You may reside in Princeton or San Francisco; it really doesn’t matter. This group is about travel, beauty, culture and camaraderie.
Join me for the adventure.

Let's all get ready for our amazing tour of Sicily only a couple of months away. I thought we would once again dine at Vidalia, one of my favorite Italian restaurants in Mercer County. We really can't go wrong. It's always great to get to know our traveling companions that we will be spending 2 weeks in Sicily with. Many of us have different interests when traveling and it's good to find kindred spirits. I'll also be on hand to answer and of your questions and concerns.
You can all order a la carte. Lot's of great Italian food on the menu. You can check it out here: VIDALIA Menu Remember to bring cash!!! Also remember that Vidalia is BYOB. Remember to bring those bottles of wine.

- Oh Mary! with Jinkx Monsoon - SOLD OUTLyceum Theater, New York, NY
The most difficult tickets to get on Broadway! This was the only day I could get matinee orchestra tickets for and they are the last in the house that day. I could only get 10 tickets in middle side orchestra. They are very good.
Oh, Mary! is a dark comedy about a miserable, suffocated Mary Todd Lincoln in the weeks leading up to Abraham Lincoln’s assassination. Unrequited yearning, alcoholism, and suppressed desires abound in this 80-minute one-act play that finally examines the forgotten life and dreams of Mrs. Lincoln, through the lens of an idiot (playwright Cole Escola).
Declared “one of the best comedies in years” by The New York Times, Oh, Mary! received Tony Awards for Best Leading Actor in a Play (Cole Escola) and Best Direction of a Play (Sam Pinkleton), Drama League Awards for Outstanding Play and Outstanding Direction of a Play, as well as a special citation from the New York Drama Critics’ Circle. It was named a finalist for the Pulitzer Prize for Drama.RuPaul’s Drag Race winner JINKX MONSOON assumes the role of Mary Todd Lincoln for 8 weeks starting August 4. I think Jinkx will be fabulous as Mary!!!!
TICKETS:
The group discount side orchestra tickets were $190.00. Unfortunately all my tickets have been sold. Please stay of the waitlist and if anyone needs to sell their ticket I'll let you know.LUNCH:
