Fitness: Check Out My Fitbit Helicopter Badge

IMG_1800

Ever since being gifted my Fitbit at LeWeb Paris ’12, I’ve fallen hard for it. I love how small it is and easy to clip onto my clothing. As someone who drives to work, it’s very helpful to see just how much (or how little…really), I walk during the day. It’s become a good motivator on days that I’m feeling slow and reminds me not to overextend myself when I’ve already walked, say, six miles during one day. So, imagine my delight when I was informed of climbing 500+ stairs just one month and a half after being given my sweet Fitbit!

The SavvyBostonian was gifted a FitBit ($99) as a speaker gift at LeWeb Paris ’12 and has been wearing it obsessively ever since.

Is it me, or does Boston seem especially photogenic these days? As I went about my usual weekend routine, I happened to snap these two photos – first as I strolled through the Public Garden en route to Downtown Crossing for a little T.J. Maxx and H&M retail therapy. The second was as I walked back to the Park Street T Stop. When life offers you a beautiful sunset, you absolutely need to cherish the moment.

IMG_1686Ah, Boston in January. Here’s a quick snapshot that I captured recently while on a snowy walk home. Doesn’t the Back Bay look beautiful and serene in the snow? Now, if only I actually enjoyed the wintery weather!

A New Year’s Fortune

Happy New Year! As we enter 2013, I thought it only appropriate to show off my first fortune of the new year. If important meetings, visits and chance encounters are what I have to look forward to in 2013, then it’s going to be a fun year!

Happy 30th Birthday To Me!

IMG_1175After whirlwind trips to Paris and London, I came home to properly celebrate my 30th birthday. A 30th birthday comes but once in a lifetime and I couldn’t have been happier to celebrate with friends and family. And, in the true spirit of such an occasion, the celebrating actually started over Thanksgiving and continued on until December 17, my actual birthday. From champagne, to cake, s’mores, thoughtful presents and cards, I’m grateful for all of the amazing people I have in my life. Here are a few snapshots from the occasion.
