Since it’s almost the official last day of summer, I thought I’d share some photos of travels to warmer places from earlier this year, that I hadn’t gotten around to posting. Our trip to Mexico feels like a long time ago, even though it’s only been a few months. While I’m sad summer is pretty …
I completely forgot to share a few snaps from my trip to Boston in April! We were there for my friend Kimmy’s bridal shower and managed to squeeze in some exploring and an engagement photo sesh with her and her fiancé (now husband). I’m no pro, but I think they turned out beautiful. 🙂 Kim …
Last month we made a trip up to Tahoe, during a time that it happened to be snow storming pretty hard. While I wouldn’t necessarily recommend doing a trip during a snowstorm (for reasons like chains falling off, cars getting stuck in the snow, and lots of shoveling (which I was blessedly spared from because …
A couple months ago we took a trip up to Hog Island Oyster Farm to enjoy a beautiful day with family, oysters and beer. The Farm is about an hour and a half drive north of San Francisco, and it’s a wonderful way to spend a Saturday afternoon. You learn how to shuck your own …
Sharing some photos from our trip to Monterey last month. We went on a whale watching adventure, ate tons of seafood and hiked up at Point Lobos. It was so nice to relax just the two of us—no laptops, no blogging. [above] Big jellyfish! [below] It was a little bit chilly and windy on our …
A couple weeks ago I posted about the amazing Chihuly Garden & Glass exhibit, and today I’m sharing a few more photos from our Seattle trip! [above] A common question in the Olympic Sculpture Park: “Is that art, or can I sit on it?” [above] Mom and dad holding hands while strolling through the sculpture …
Last month when we were up in Seattle we spent an afternoon at the Chihuly Glass and Garden Exhibit. You may have seen some of Chihuly’s larger than life glass installations in some of the ritzy spots in Vegas, like the Bellagio and in the City Center. The exhibit, located right underneath the Space Needle, …
A couple weeks ago, I jetted over to Vegas to attend MAGIC Market Week. It was my first time going, and it was absolutely exhausting, but lots of fun! There were 2,000+ brands there, so even though I tried, I wasn’t quiiiite able to check out all of them. 😉 It was interesting seeing the …
One of the (many) things I love about living in San Francisco is that if you need to get out of the city, there are so many options close by. The ocean isn’t far, and there are lots of pretty trails and national parks a stone’s throw away. In this case, my boyfriend and I …
After our time in Beijing, we hopped on a flight to Hong Kong. It was quite a change of scenery. Hong Kong is this interesting mix of tropical island and a world-class, dense city. The night life is super fun, the skyline is jaw-dropping, and the giant Buddha is awesome. And the shopping, ohh the …
When deranged girls parrot Kate Moss’ “Nothing tastes as good as skinny feels,” I like to respond with a simple, “Bitch, clearly you’ve never eaten at [insert latest most amazing food I’ve tried here].” Since moving to San Francisco, those brackets have usually been filled with “Tartine.” But after our trip to Asia, I think …
My boyfriend and I finally went through all of our photos from our China trip (we took about 1,000!) and picked out the best ones. We spent a week in Beijing, and stayed in a studio apartment that we found on AirBnB in the southern area of the city. Our trip was awesome. China’s history …
