The Greenwich Perambulator regularly roams the neighborhoods of Greenwich, sharing some of his random findings.

Take heart, it is less than a week until we gain an hour of sunlight in the afternoon through the magic of daylight savings time. The perambulator is one of the many for whom light affects mood, so I welcome the longer days that will start Sunday, March 13.

Love the water? Love speed and elegance? Love smell of the sea and the wind in your hair?

Let me start with a definition. A perambulator is someone who makes a tour or inspection on foot. In my case they are not so much tours or inspections as random wanderings to satisfy my curiosity. The Greenwich part needs no explanation. I live and work (mostly) in town, which affords me frequent opportunities for roaming around. I will be sharing what I see with livinggreenwich.com readers.

With Valentine’s Day on the forefront of everyone’s mind, Living Greenwich recently had the opportunity to visit with the Director of the J House Hotel Spa & Wellness Center, Danielle Cervi.
