It’s a road trip! This weekend, we headed about 1 hour North of Los Angeles to Lancaster, California. The remote desert city is home to mostly military families. But that’s not all – it has a road that plays the tune of the “William Tell Overture” as you drive over Avenue G….
Off the Beaten Path
Short on time but want to see the best of Vietnam? Below is my itinerary after months of research. Okay, so this is a packed itinerary (requiring several morning wake-up calls before 6 AM!). To say it’s ambitious is an understatement. But hey, by the end of this trip, you…
There is no shortage of gorgeous oceanfront drives in California. But today’s road trip ranks easily as the most striking… Leaps above it’s more famous (and congested) Pacific Coast Highway running through Malibu. This weekend, my partner and I took his parents to Mexican wine country driving along the scenic highway stretching from Tijuana…

Arriving in Bisbee, Arizona, feels like what I imagine to accidentally drive into a secret cult. One minute, you’re driving past gas stations with pick up trucks and guys wearing cowboy hats (in a non-ironic way). And the next, you’re seeing aging hippies in purple jump suits, anti-war and anti-Trump posters…
There are few restaurants that can be described as culinary events — where it’s more than just a good meal but an experience. Most foodies know the good o’l hot spots like Thomas Keller’s Michelin-starred French Laundry, Alice Waters’ Chez Panisse and LA celebrity Chef Wolfgang Puck’s Spago. But what about Chef Diego Hernandez’s restaurant Corazon De Tierra?…
This past weekend, I took a road trip with my partner’s parents to Mexico to check out Baja wine country. Until recently, the only alcohol that I associated with Mexico was Tequila shots (ugh, flashback to my college days) or bottles of Corona (pee in a bottle!). Thankfully, I’ve long…
