A short Metro ride from Washington DC, Alexandria, Virginia is the perfect escape from the fast-paced capital. First settled in 1695, the city retains its colonial spirit, with cobblestone streets and historic buildings in the Old Town, Gadsby's Tavern, a restaurant serving food since 1770, and centers of learning like the Black History Museum. For a more contemporary side of Alexandria, wander the streets of the stylish Del Ray neighborhood, where local artists operate boutiques and studios.

What a wonderful, eclectic combination of specialty goods from around the world. Kate was so helpful in helping me select a special gift for friends. She told me the background stories on each product and the prices were very reasonable for the quality and the positive missions involved in the fair trade products. High on my list for must return to stores.
