I loved reading Norwegian Wood by Haruki Murakami. For whatever reason, I’ve never felt particularly drawn to Japan, but Murakami’s re-creation of 1960s student life in Tokyo had my interest piqued for the first time.

I loved a four-year-old “No Reservations” show the Travel Channel re-aired featuring Anthony Bourdain in Los Angeles. He eschewed Hollywood, Santa Monica and Pink’s hot dogs—places every show highlights—for Boyle Heights, Thai Town, dumplings and mariachis. That’s the city I love.

The airport-only lane to and from Dulles International Airport. I made a pick up and a drop off, and I didn’t pay any tolls or hit traffic. Lovely. Thanks for the foresight, Metropolitan Washington Airports Authority!
