A reality of traveling is that shit will occasionally go wrong, you might lose something, your stuff might get stolen, or things may break. It sucks. But figuring out how to deal with crappy situations while on the road is a must. The other morning I grabbed my computer to do some work and it wouldn’t turn on. My first…
The first stop on our journey was New Jersey. This might seem a little random, but one of my best friends moved there last year, so I was really excited to visit. She and her husband live in northern New Jersey pretty close to the New York border, in a little town in the forest. We flew into Newark on…
Deciding To Travel Deciding to take a six month trip around the world is kind of a crazy endeavor, I am well aware. For my boyfriend Rob and I, the idea started out very simply, we wanted to take an extended trip somewhere, Asia had been next on my list of places I had wanted to travel, so we started…
Planning for our trip around the world has been a long and ongoing process for the last few months. Because we are traveling through Europe during the middle of summer at the height of tourist season, we wanted to have those months planned out and booked ahead of time. While we normally love to be spontaneous on our adventures, this…
While back some friends and I decided we needed to get out of the city for the weekend, and wine country seemed like the perfect choice for a weekend getaway. We got to do some wine tasting and enjoyed the beautiful spring weather. I kept packing for this little jaunt up highway 101 pretty simple with a cute winery appropriate…
The summer music festival season is in full swing now, so I wanted to make a little overview of a few of the festivals we have here in California.

A few weeks a go I headed out to Indio, California with a group of friends for the Coachella Music Festival. It was a a weekend fill with good music, good friends, and lots of dancing. This year was a lot of fun for me because it was the first time I’d been in several years and it was also…
Spending a weekend at “The Happiest Place on Earth” is as much fun as it is exhausting. That being said, I love Disneyland, and would say everyone should do the 2 day both parks adventure at least once in their life. If you are not familiar with Disney in Anaheim, there are 2 parks: the original Disneyland, built by Walt…
San Diego is arguably one of the nicest cities in California, if not the US. It’s tagline is “America’s Finest City”, so I mean, come on, it’s gotta be true! With their year-round Mediterranean climate and wide variety of things to do and sights to see, it’s the perfect spot for both a weekend getaway and extended trips. Having grown…
I went to my first music festival with my parents when I was around 8 years old. My memories of that first festival have nothing to do with music, infact I’m pretty sure I had no idea there was even live music happening. I was very focused on getting my face painted, eating cotton candy and convincing my mom to…
