For Labor Day Weekend, I decided to go back to a couple familiar places and explore them all over again: Paso Robles and San Francisco. Plus, I wanted a very affordable and cheap getaway and this fit the bill just fine. The last time I was in Paso Robles was for my 32nd birthday in [...]
For my 38th birthday this year, I decided to go back to Europe to a magical and picturesque place called Iceland. To be honest, Iceland was never on my bucket list to visit. One of the reasons I booked this trip was because I was dying to get back to Europe and was searching for [...]
In weeks past, I have gotten emails from a few readers asking me how I manage to travel all the time yet live in the Greater Los Angeles area (summed up) and if I'm in debt, broke, I spend too much, etc... etc...Basically, how am I making this work? Coincidentally, my friend Rosy asked me [...]
After years of saying I am going to visit this place, I finally made my way to Lake Tahoe for a long Memorial Day Weekend. I had heard of how crystal clear the lake is and just the peace and serenity of the whole place. With my life being busy, I needed that kind of atmosphere! [...]

My birthday falls the week of July 4. I decided 3 years ago that I would always take the whole week off and travel every year for my birthday. In 2014 it was New York City, 2015 it was Big Sur/Monterey/Santa Cruz, last year I stayed in town because I went to Ireland and Scotland [...]
Over the long Memorial Weekend, I decided to head east to Lake Arrowhead and Big Bear Lake in the San Bernardino Mountains. Originally I was going to go to Portland, but with the Memorial Weekend travel prices being so high, I decided to stay local. I am also going somewhere extra special for my birthday [...]
Over the weekend, I finally went to Yosemite National Park and Sequoia National Park. I have been wanting to visit these national parks since I first moved to California.
