I love to travel and experience new sights, cultures and foods. And I love to relax. The perfect vacation for me consists of warm weather and beaches, guided tours and excellent food that I don't have to prepare.
And Puerto Rico has all of that and more.
Puerto Rico is the perfect destination for the adventurer, the beach bum, the foodie, or the golfer (bonus points if you can claim to be all of these in one world traveler!). Here are a few of the reasons why you should Live your own 5-star vacation story in Puerto Rico.…
