Shop for goodies and feel extra justified doing it? Yes...
POSITIVES AND NEGATIVES OF LIVING IN LOS ANGELES I have been sharing, snapping, and writing about life in Los Angeles for almost 7 years, but I’ve never sat down and mapped out what the pros and cons of living here might look like – or in this case, what truly makes one...
I’ve said it once and I’ll say it again, Mexico City is in my top 3 favorite cities to visit in the entire world. It’s nearly impossible to tire of this beautiful, historic, and vibrant city, and whether you have 2 days or 10 you will inevitably find it hard to leave. Whether you’re...
If you were to ask me what my favorite city in the world was – besides, LA, of course – Mexico City would be somewhere in my top 3 choices. I have always loved visiting Mexico, but Mexico City is on a whole other level of culture, fun, and beauty. The Mexico most of...
Just when I thought I couldn’t love the Pacific Northwest any more than I did already… I spent 4 days in Vancouver at Fairmont Pacific Rim and almost never left. Why?

This post has been a long time coming. After countless trips and years of “experience”, it’s finally time to take a deep dive into a subject I have become almost fluent in, and that is PALM SPRINGS. Palm Springs is just about every Angeleno’s choice destination for a weekend wellness getaway; it’s our sanctuary,...
Everyone deserves the right to an epic road trip at least once in their life, and there really is no better place to do so than through sunny (and stupidly beautiful) Southern California. Sure, I might be a bit bias, my love for this particular part of the state knows no bounds, but there is...
I know what you’re thinking. And the answer is YES Toronto can be a weekend getaway for Angelenos. If I can do it, you can do it, and thus you definitely should. I just spent 3 gorgeous days in “The Six” (which turns out only 7% of people who live there actually refer to...
