Summary

Today's episode is a favorite from Season 1 of The Simple Sophisticate.

Episode #45 was the sixth top episode of the first season and continues to be a favorite with listeners as it shares 10 Ways to Set Up Your Home Like A Luxury Travel Accommodation.

In the times we find ourselves, I thought this might be just the episode to return to as we are still spending more time at home that we had anticipated especially as summer nears. Cultivating a sanctuary that beckons us to linger and we long to return to and spend ample time in has much to do with the details. And the details, the luxurious details, need not be all that difficult to acquire and welcome into our home.

I do hope you enjoy today's episode, and look for a new episode next Monday and for the month of June.

0:00.0	Welcome to the simple Sophisticate Podcast, where intelligent living is paired with signature style.
0:16.3	I'm your host, Shannon Ables.
0:18.8	And whether you're listening on your commute, exercising, working in the garden, or sitting down with a hot cup of tea or a
0:25.0	cafe ole, thank you for tuning in. Let's get started. Welcome to the simple
0:44.6	Sophisticate. Today we're going to be talking about how to make your home, your
0:49.2	sanctuary much like a luxurious hotel suite.
0:54.0	And with the times that we find ourselves, we're easing gradually out of restrictions and orders from governors and leaders, but it is gradual and we still are staying home
1:06.0	quite a bit more and so I thought today's episode would be pertinent to what we
1:09.8	are going through at the moment and also as we look to a summer that may still involve
1:16.9	travel plans, but maybe significantly adjusted travel plans, this is a way to make our homes the place where we are at the most lately, truly
1:27.2	welcoming and luxurious in simple little ideas and touches that we may not have thought about. Today's episode is a top
1:35.0	episode from the first season of the Simple Sophisticate in 2015. It was
1:40.0	actually the sixth most downloaded and listened to episode of that season there was
1:45.2	52 episodes 54 episodes I think actually so it just really was quite popular when it
1:51.6	came out but before I get to that I want to let you know
1:54.8	that it's beginning next Monday, June 1st. There will be a brand new episode of
1:59.0	this podcast with an interview with Oliver G from the Earful Tower. We're going to talk about his new book. We're going to talk about
2:05.2	Paris. We're going to talk about confinement. We actually talked to him the day after Paris was, I guess, out of confinement, which was in great conversation and so much more and
2:15.6	in the following weeks after that in June it will be back to what we normally do
2:19.2	talking about what has peaked my attention books that I've read that I'm inspired to share with you and
2:25.2	break it down in a simply luxurious fashion.
2:28.1	So I do hope you'll tune in.
