After 18 years of growing up in the Bay Area, 10 years of countless wine bottles consumed, and god-knows-how-many-years of visiting wine country almost quarterly – it’s safe to say I’ve become pretty well versed in all of the notes of Napa Valley. (I think I might get bonus points for having a BFF/aunt who happens...
Whether you’re headed full speed ahead for “Lost Almost”, “Little Los Angeles”, or more accurately, Los Alamos, know that no matter what good things await. Located just 2 hours north of Los Angeles, Los Alamos is a funky little legitimately old western town that has become quite the little destination over the past few years...
LOVE & LOATHING… LAS VEGAS. Fact: I have traveled to Vegas more times than any other city – and I love it way more than I loathe it. I remember my first trip to Sin City like it was yesterday (don’t we all)… rolled into town all bright-eyed and bushy-tailed, got drunk off...
It’s official – I have a new favorite hotel in California. If it weren’t obvious per most of my recommendations, I definitely seem to have a type when it comes to what I consider to be “the best accommodations”. Checklist items include: must have history or at least a good story must have modern...
I’ve never heard so many people say “it’s my favorite” about a place so much as I have in reference to Solvang. Everyone and their mother just L O V E S Solvang. I get it though, what isn’t naturally appealing about the idea of a Danish Disneyland? A Danish Disneyland that doesn’t even require...

If you’re thinking of moving to Los Angeles, or better yet *know* you are, I can tell you one thing: there is a home/community/place for you here and no matter what you’re looking for, I promise you’ll find it. I’ve had a love affair with this city since 2007 and still am able to...
Even as restrictions are loosening up a bit that certainly doesn’t mean go crazy have a party. I’ve felt stuck between a rock and a hard place for months – I miss my friends, but how do we do this? How do we hang out, have some normalcy, and be safe? I am certainly no...
LA might be 500 sq miles of vast landscapes and endless amounts of activities, but even resident Angelenos need days to get the heck outta town and switch up the scenery.
