Las Vegas, Nevada: The perfect business destination.

Say what?

You read right! Las Vegas provides both the perfect office and playground for a business trip. The city has millions of square feet for any trade show, expo, or meeting and the excellent entertainment for every taste.

Whether you or your clients like to gamble, relax by the pool, enjoy a cocktail in Venice or Paris, dance the night away, or take in one of the numerous shows…there’s something for everyone.

Last weekend, I went on a business trip to Blog World & New Media Expo in Las Vegas and while I didn’t have tons of energy to play, I did find the time to take in a Cirque du Soleil* show and saw LOVE:

• LOVE was my third Cirque du Soleil show and I’ve loved every single show! (Let me know if you’ve ever run into anyone who saw one of their shows and didn’t like it- I haven’t met anyone yet!)
• LOVE is a bit different from the other Cirque du Soleil shows I’ve seen like La Nuba. Expect amazing choreography and stunts with a modern twist. Think: Cirque du Soleil meets Stomp at times.
• If you love The Beatles, you’ll love the amazing remixes of their popular songs! If you can’t stand the music, choose another Cirque show.
• This is the Cirque show to see for the politically and socially-minded. As most people know, The Beatles went from singing about peace, love, and strawberries to lyrics about revolutions and all the lonely people.  You’ll have to see LOVE to find how they managed to incorporate all these themes into the show!

If you’re thinking about buying The Beatles LOVE album, click on the affiliate link below and I might just make enough money to buy a cup of coffee (which will help me write my next blog post)!

*Thanks to @CirqueduSoleil for providing these free tickets to review the show!

Looking to hang out with the rat race for the weekend? Vancouver, Canada is the perfect weekend getaway spot for the busy businesswoman!

From a bike ride in Stanley Park to the hottest concerts and most delectable cuisine, Vancouver promises not to disappoint!  A long weekend will be just enough time to catch a flavor of this hip, international city.

Just be sure get there before the 2010 Winter Olympics make Vancouver too costly and crowded for your budget and enjoyment.

Entrepreneur Goddess Suggests:

Lodging: Fairmont Downtown. Built in 1928, this gorgeous hotel stands out among the modern high rises dotting the skyline. You can’t beat the location, just a short walk from the trendy boutiques on Robson as well as the picturesque waterfront. The downside to staying at the Fairmont: $13/day for in-room internet.

Restaurant: Cardero’s. If you’ve ever wanted to dine over the water, here’s your chance. The seafood will please the most discriminating seafood lovers and the salads, bless them, will bring tears of happiness to vegetarian eyes. Cardero’s also offers a huge selection of locally brewed beer, so drink up.

Recreation: Bike rentals in Vancouver go for about $10 for 2 hours at a bike shop across the street from Cardero’s. If you forget your helmet, it’ll cost you an extra $5. A couple of hours is more than enough time for a scenic ride around Stanley Park.

Free Internet: Blenz Coffee appears to be a few steps ahead of Starbucks in Vancouver, they have one on just about every corner. For the price of a cup of coffee, your wifi is free. Follow them on Twitter: @blenzcoffee.

A quick reminder to step out of your office and usual life! It’ll keep you more productive for those days and hours when you’re in the office.

Work hard, play hard.

Every Entrepreneur Goddess needs and deserves time to play. A few days or weeks away from the office and rat race does a body, mind, and spirit good. When you return to the office and everyday life as you know it, you’ll be that much more productive.

I’ve escaped the rat race for a few days at Mt. Shasta…and beyond!

Stay tuned.
