Fall of the Wall
November 9, 2009, marks 20 years since the fall of the Berlin Wall. I was in 9th grade when the news came across CNN that the physical symbol of the East/West divide was on the verge of toppling. And my mother reminded me today while I was reminiscing about the event that I sat for [...]

Dear friends, I must apologize for the long delay in writing. But, I have been up to big things. First of all, I have been concentrating on my writing and my other blog Italofile.com. I am using Italofile as a way to explore the Italy travel landscape beyond the pages of my books The Unofficial Guide [...]

Hi there! Are you looking for Ms. Adventure, the website of the Animal Planet television show that launched in January 2007? Or are you looking for Miss Adventures, the on again-off again blog of freelance travel and food writer Melanie Mize Renzulli? If it’s the latter…welcome! If not, check out Ms. Adventure here.

Good news, everyone! As you may or may not know, in between voiceovers, observing India, and blogging, I’ve also maintained a pretty full freelance writing/editing schedule. The results of those long days and nights last fall have been two guidebooks on Italy that I am quite proud of.

Basically, I have succumbed to the second – yes, second – outbreak of jaundice in Bombay over the past three months. [...]

Well, it looks like India has gotten the best of me and I’m going to be sick for the next few weeks. I hope to be back to the blog sooner than later. But time will tell. So, take care and I’ll write soon.

…until I get out of this office and get on with my summer adventures. I think they’re trying to make my last days miserable though.

Thanks (or no thanks) to my sister, I’ve wasted the better part of the morning figuring out what kind of dog I am. I’ve also started a chain reaction in my office, so I’m getting the occasional email that says, “I’m a Lhasa Apso!” How come there are so many of these games on the [...]

LA LA LA! I’ve been trying to figure out how to get online wirelessly for MONTHS now, and no one has been able to help. But today I gave it another shot. Not sure what I did. Well, for one thing, I removed my wireless connection from the “bridge” that it was on. Otherwise…I’m not quite [...]
