Love it or hate it, Valentine’s Day is around the corner. But an overpriced dinner isn’t the only option for a romantic Valentine’s Day in Los Angeles. In fact, your date might even think you’re being creative by doing something unconventional (and not just being cheap!). Lucky for me, Kevin…
In less than 3 months, Kevin and I will officially tie the knot in downtown Los Angeles. To celebrate, Kevin’s friends from his Stanford days invited us up to San Francisco for a low key celebration. It’s a great place to celebrate a gay bachelor party given San Francisco’s progressive attitudes…
Valle De Guadalupe remains one of our favorite travel destinations. We’ve come here over the past 5 years, and it truly gets better every time (check out our past blog posts here). But what’s most shocking to us is just how many of our friends in Los Angeles have never…
We’ve reached the end of our 5 day trip in Mexico City. And this year we came prepared for New Year’s Day — a day that nearly everything is shut down. And if you’re going for New Year’s Eve, I recommend you read my top 10 ideas for celebrating New…

Mexico City has quickly become one of our new favorite places to travel — it’s a 3.5 hour flight from LA (and cheap!), full of culture, adventure and has delicious street food and top ranked restaurants. Last year, we visited Mexico City between Christmas and New Years (check out our itinerary…
For the past 5 years, Kevin and I have headed to Tampa, Florida for Christmas to visit my family. Rather than haul a bunch of gifts from LA, it’s become a tradition for us to do a big activity with the family. Kevin takes a break from all the snacking…
One Second Everyday is an app that I heard mentioned on NPR while driving back from the office. The idea behind it is that as we get older, the days seem to go faster (and even merge into one). I can’t tell you how many times people will ask —…
We’re back from the holidays! And so many blog posts to come from all our recent travels. Before heading out of Los Angeles, Kevin and I had the opportunity to take the very first wine and cheese pairing class at Eataly’s “La Scuola” (Italian for “School”). If you haven’t ever been to an Eataly,…
