Join Susan in Rome for a whirlwind, two-day trip centered around the latest installment in the Ermengildo Zegna brand’s ongoing series of ZegnArt projects–in this case, the debut of a commissioned piece by Lucy + Jorge Orta at the MAXXI contemporary art museum. Guests enjoy a tour of Imperial Rome; a private viewing of the Vatican Museum; and, of course, a gala opening to celebrate the new work, Fabulae Romanae (Roman Tales). It’s an exciting event, and Anna Zegna, Gildo Zegna and their team prove to be excellent hosts. All in all, a remarkable trip that wraps up far too soon!

In mid-November, I took a fascinating trip to Tel Aviv at the invitation of Iris Zohar, the founder of 9ROOMS. It was an incredible experience, and Iris was a tireless guide during my five days there. I spent most of my time with her, discovering the wonders of the city–and I was pleased, and very touched, to discover how warm and welcoming Tel Aviv’s people could be!

I’m a die-hard Europhile (and prefer the other side of the Atlantic), but even I have to admit there are some chic destinations on this side, as well. I was reminded of this last weekend, when my family and I escaped the brutal New York City heat wave to spend time at our summer home on Nantucket.

Last week I enjoyed a quick trip to Milan with my husband. It was perfect spring weather – and we had a lovely time strolling the city. As always, the shopping, food, nightlife and people-watching were divine. But the major – and completely unexpected – highlight while I was there was a writeup in the New York Post. On Saturday, they named me one of the 8 New Yorkers who are giving the inside scoop on the city 140 characters or less. I love connecting with readers on twitter @Susan_Tabak, so this really meant so much to me…
