As a native Angeleno, I’m always getting asked where the must visit places around Los Angeles are. The problem is as a local, I hadn’t grown up doing the “touristy” things around my city. I only recently started to visit the famous sites. Up until a few months ago, I had never been to the Hollywood Sign!
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.

Read MoreHave you heard of Desert X? If you haven’t, it’s ok, you aren’t completely living under a rock. I drove out to Palm Springs back in February and saw some billboards on the side of the freeway that looked like snapshots of the landscape behind the sign. I didn’t think anything of it.
Read MoreThis may sound strange, but it was really hard coming up with a “best” list for ice cream around Los Angeles. I think it’s because it’s pretty hard to mess ice cream up and there are so many places to chose from. I mean I crave Baskin Robbins sometimes. I may have left off a few places, but to me these are the best and most unique places around.
Read MoreYes, the Museum of Ice Cream is a real place. And, let me tell you, it is what all of your ice cream dreams are made of. Your visit is full of all things ice cream, giant popsicles, swings and the best part, a pool full of sprinkles. I know I hate to burst your bubble, but the sprinkles are not real and you cannot and should not eat them.
