The JK Place Hotel in Florence Italy: My Personal Palazzo

Imagine, having your own place in Florence, Italy. That’s always been a dream for Kim and I. So, when we went to Florence last week we tried to find a place that felt like home, but, because we’re on vacation, also feel like a 5 star hotel. With just a little research, we found it. It’s called the JK Place Hotel. After our stay, it was obvious why Travel and Leisure voted it one of the best hotels in 2010.

Get a Banging beach body now with Super Human Mark Briggs of P90X Plus

1. How did you get involved in P90X and wind up being in a video working out with Tony Horton?

Everything started for me back in 2002. Being miserably out of shape, I bought the Power 90 program off of the informercial. From there, Slim in 6 was my next program. I ended up being selected as one of the success story winners from Slim in 6, and that won me a trip to Hollywood. My last night there, I met Tony during a dinner party. He had just finished running his first test group through P90X, and he told me all about the program. Tony’s and my personalities just clicked, and we became fast friends. Not long after, P90X came out and I was among the first 100 Beachbody customers to go through P90X (which gave me some incredible results). From there, I attended a few of Tony’s fitness camps, and our friendship continued to grow. Then, in 2007, he called and told me that Beachbody wanted to cast me in the P90X+ series……the rest was history.

An Interview with Leo Babauta Author of The Power of Less (and Zen Habits)

I love to interview someone who is not just “talking the talk” (lots of that out there), but rather someone who is truly “walking the walk” and Leo Babauta is just that guy. His blog Zen Habits has made it in 12 short months to being one of Technorati top-100 blogs in the world and has accomplished more in 12 months than most people accomplish in 12 years. The best part is that he did it in a very peaceful focused way. I’m thrilled that he agreed to “sit down” with Jet Set Life for this interview.
