A Day in New York City Under $20: New York on a Budget
New York City is known for being one of the most expensive cities in the world. I can absolutely attest to this and constantly feel as though I am throwing my money away with each passing day. Like, I might as well just take a wad of cash and distribute it in individual one-dollar bills like they used to do in music videos {yeah, remember those things?}. As a budget traveler, this is one of the most uncomfortable feelings and something I am doing my best to avoid. Continue Reading
TAKE ME OUT TO THE BALL GAME
I have been a baseball fan since birth. I mean, it wasn’t the cliché tale of my father putting an infant sized baseball cap on my head the moment I left the womb, but you get it. Growing up, my parents introduced me to my first true love: the San Francisco Giants. I would literally race home, turn on the television, and watch the afternoon game after school. On the reg.

NOTABLE NORMALCIES // 5.5.2017
This week has been an incredible one.
…at least when compared to the shit storm of a week I had previously. There was nothing notable about that week. Other than the fact I survived it. Continue Reading
5 Most Overrated Cities in Europe
It’s very hard for me to complain about any destination in Europe. Each has something to offer, whether or not it is worth devoting an entire afternoon to. I understand how difficult it can be to narrow down all of the places you want to see on your European vacation. You want to make the most out of every day and only waste time at the beach.

24 Hours in Tribeca: A Detailed Itinerary
I recently found myself in the triangle below canal street, also know as TriBeCa. There are certain neighborhoods that I am drawn to in any city. In London, you could find me in Notting Hill on any given day. In San Francisco, I would sip champagne in the Marina District on a Sunday afternoon. And in New York, it’s been a toss up between TriBeCa and Chelsea. Both neighborhoods contain so much hidden charm within the concrete walls of the city. Both also cost an arm and a leg. It’s obvious that I am not alone in my love for these areas of the city, as you will find locals swarming the best eateries and cafes each weekend. Continue Reading
APRIL SHOWERS
We all have those days. The ones that knock you down. Or leave you feeling like the last crispy french fry in a McDonald’s brown paper bag that we all tend to eat around. Well, today was one of those days for yours truly.
Nothing seemed to go right. And everything inevitable went wrong. Continue Reading
NOTABLE NORMALCIES // 4.24.2017
Well hey there, it’s been a quick minute.
It’s been another extremely busy couple of weeks here in the big apple. Live music, happy hours with coworkers, botanic gardens, birthday celebrations, the Harlem Dance Company, and obviously BRUNCH. These are all things that have been consuming me over the last couple of weeks. New York ceases to amaze me with the constant {and I mean constant} opportunities that I find myself involved in.

THE ULTIMATE TRAVEL GUIDE TO LONDON
Prepare yourselves, this is going to be a long one.
I felt it was about time that I created an ‘Ultimate Guide’ to my favorite city in the world. I am actually extremely proud of how many things I accomplished while living in London. It’s true that you will never find yourself complaining of boredom in London. To create this guide, I simply sat down one night and began listing the places I visited and the meaningful experiences I shared, and so began the guide to England’s largest, and most diverse, city. Continue Reading
A QUICK NEIGHBORHOOD GUIDE TO LONDON
Like most metropolises {yes, that’s a word}, there are so many neighborhoods to explore. Here in New York, I am having a hard time knowing what neighborhood I’m in, when I’m in it. And it’s not for lack of trying. But you walk around the corner, cross a side street, and suddenly BOOM, you have crossed from TiBeCa to Little Italy.
