The main theme of my blog is to go out of your comfort zone and do something that scares you. I always go back to the quote from Eleanor Roosevelt that says, “Do one thing everyday that scares you”. I think it’s really important to make yourself try something new. I know for me, a big motivating factor is the fear of regret or as the young-ins today call it “FOMO” (fear of missing out).
Read MoreWhen I was trying to figure out what blog posts to write about Maui, I started outlining out the usual ones - where to go, Instagrammable Spots, hidden finds - and then I thought, wait, how could I forget about the food? It dawned on me. When I do my research for my trips, I usually focus on the places and things I’d like to do and see and not on food. Food should be at the top of your list the next time you visit Maui.
Read MoreOh the challenges of working and wanting to travel. Cue the weekend. Yes, the two days of the week of freedom. Granted now that I don’t work a corporate nine to five, I don’t necessarily have as much of a constricting schedule.

Read MoreOpen for just over a year, the OUE Skypace in Downtown Los Angeles quickly made a name for itself because of its unique Skyslide. This glass slide hovers just about 1000 feet over the city where brave guests can slide from the 70th floor to the 69th floor. I’ll repeat that. This is a glass slide.
Read MoreThere are a lot of recommendations for the best places to take pictures around Los Angeles. You know, where can you get those pictures that are going to get you 100 likes (or more, go you!). I’ve read them all and honestly I don’t really want to drive across the city just to jump in front of a wall to then drive back.
Read MoreSince including pictures of the infamous Pirate Tower on the beach in Laguna Beach in my Southern California Beach Guide blog post, I’ve gotten so many inquiries about exactly how to get there and some of the challenges of this particular spot. So, here you go everyone!
Read MoreHave you heard of #thepinkhouse in LA yet? Or should I say pink houses, plural. I got a wake up text from my roommate Sunday morning about it. I mean, that’s one way to get me out of my bed.
