What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas right? But what happens if NOTHING ends up happening in Vegas that’s worth keeping in Vegas?! That would be the ultimate let down! When you step off the plane in Vegas you need a plan of attack. Unless you have George Maloof on speed dial or look like a Playboy Playmate you may find yourself on the wrong side of the velvet ropes. This is where the premier Las Vegas concierge service AngeLiKa comes in. These ladies and gents know their way around Vegas and possibly have Mr. Maloof on speed dial. They are your ticket to living out your Jet Set Vegas fantasies. I could tell you more, but I think I’ll let the gang of AngeLiKa explain you why your next Vegas trip needs to begin with a call to them.

In 1993…

I traveled to Russia as a Student Ambassador for the USA. We were treated like royalty and the Russians were excited to be meeting an American. I traveled again in 1996 to Greece and Italy. The same reception was given. Our money was like gold everywhere we went. Being American overseas felt amazing. It felt like America was the really cool older sibling that other countries looked up to and wanted to emulate.

Fast forward to 2004….

Between 2004 and 2008, Rob and I have traveled to Europe, Africa, Central and South America. The feeling of being an American overseas felt like being the red-headed step child instead of the cool older sibling (no offense to red headed step-children, I think you’re beautiful). For the first time in my travel life I felt a chilly reception around the world. Not that I need the red carpet rolled out because I’m an American and no, I don’t believe that our country is perfect. However, this is the only time in my life that I have witnessed our flag being burned or have seen “F*ck the USA” graffiti oversees (and it’s not like I was in the Middle East).

Whatever your views or political affiliation is, you can not deny that traveling the world as an American has changed over the last six years. We’ve all heard of travelers claiming Canadian citizenship to avoid aggressive behavior. Personally, we don’t do that, we’re honest about our citizenship, but I can understand why some may not want to be.

We were no longer greeted by people asking questions about living in America and telling us that they wish they could move to America. No matter which country we were in, now matter who we meet, we always received one question, “Do you like President Bush?”. We’ve been asked in Rio de Janeiro, Punta del Este, Mykonos, Santorini, Marbella, Mexico, Marrakech and all over Italy. Both Rob and I have been traveling the world for many years, yet we had never received the assault of questions from foreigners before regarding our President and our political views.

Fast Forward to Tuesday November 4, 2008…

When Obama was named President-Elect on Tuesday night, I watched as the news showed the overwhelming joyous reactions from Grant Park. It was a huge display and an undeniably proud and historic moment for our country regardless of who you personally voted for. But when they began showing the viewing parties from around the world in places like Italy, Brazil, England, Africa and Australia I was in awe. It looked like the New Year’s Eve news coverage when they show the fireworks from the major cities around the globe. I watched as the foreign countries cheered, hugged and screamed for OUR country. Honestly, I cried. I felt like at that exact moment, something changed and we were let back into the club. The fact our country has risen above a history of ignorance and racial prejudice and overwhelmingly voted an African-American into the White House shows the world that we are a changed America.

Much remains to been seen and our new President will have to earn the respect of the world. But, if election night was a predictor of how the international image of America can change, then it’s finally time to take the Canadian flag off those suitcases!
