It’s December, which means one thing if you live or are visiting New York City — it is crazy busy! But I love all the energy and think it’s one of the best times to visit. A few months back, Kevin and his cousins concocted a fun idea: to hit…

We’ve been traveling so much, it’s been hard to keep up on all the blog posts! Kevin and I recently got back from our packed long weekend on the Big Island of Hawaii. If there is one thing I’m good at, it’s maximizing an itinerary. But one activity that stood…
It has been a crazy past few months of travel. At this point, I’m pretty sure the dog thinks the sitter is his new owner! Our latest travel took us to the Big Island in Hawaii where we put together a jam-packed long weekend while visiting our friend Royelen for her birthday. Like…
Kevin and I put in an effort for Halloween (okay, maybe not much!) and dressed up. Over the past few years, we feel like we’re about 90-years-old whenever Halloween comes around in West Hollywood (why is that music so loud? They’re going to go deaf!). We went to the Halloween…
We’re back from a little blog hiatus. So much travel — so little time (or maybe more importantly, Internet access!). For the past 2 weeks, we’ve been in South Africa and Zambia having some crazy adventures. However, just as we were about to book that trip a few months back, we got…
Kevin and I just got back from spending a romantic weekend in San Diego. Next year, we’ll be getting married in downtown Los Angeles. However, we hired a photographer based in San Diego who offered to snap some photos of us for free if we came to him. Now who can pass up…
This year, I surprised Kevin for his birthday with a trip to Seattle (including the nearby San Juan Islands and Mt. Rainier). It was a big birthday year for him. You know, the kind of birthday where some people stop counting (or in LA, where we start subtracting!). To avoid the reality of getting older,…
The San Juan Islands are well worth the detour if you’re visiting Seattle for a few days. Most people I talked to in LA have never heard of them. But if you’ve seen any of the “Free Willie” movies (admit it, you have!), the films were shot in and around…
The inspiration behind this blog was not only to find a creative writing outlet, but to share some of the fun and sometimes downright crazy things we uncover. And in the Los Angeles area there are so many great road trips. Just a 20 minute drive, the San Gabriel Valley…
It has been such a crazy July — so when it came time to plan a weekend escape from Los Angeles I knew exactly where to go. Idyllwild, located just 2 hours East of Los Angeles, is a quiet mountaintop community known for its vibrant art scene. Oh, and its mayor…
