Earlier this month, Nick at PF Digest shared some confessions. I thought I’d share some as well, because, emulation is a great form of flattery, and the end of the year is a time to reflect.

1. Despite my vendoming nature, I’ve never stayed at a Four Seasons or Andaz hotel.
2. On that note, I’ve flown economy at least 10 times. 8 were on Southwest, 2 were on American, one was even International (to Bermuda), the second was entirely by choice, if you can believe that.
3. I haven’t had a Chase Sapphire Preferred in over a year.
4. I’ve never stayed at a Westin, much to the chagrin of many, although I do someday hope to sleep in a Westin Heavenly Bed.
5. I’m still pursuing lifetime Marriott Platinum Status, sometimes I feel like the only one in the blogosphere to do so (I’m only 246 nights and 704,735 points away!)
6. I’ve never been to the Maldives, it’s on my list, but pretty low down, in fact.
7. I’ve stayed at a grand total of 3 SPG properties, one each year, over the last 3 years. The nicest one by far was the W Singapore.
8. Even though I’ve flown the Etihad A380 Apartments twice, it’s not my favorite. In fact, my wife asked whether I wanted to fly it home from the UAE in mid-2016, and I actually said no.

Happy New Year everyone!
