It’s summer. Time for ALL the weekend trips. ALL OF THEM. One of them needs to be lakeside, amirite?I’m right. Here’s how to party with 20 of your closest friends (step 0.5 is make 20 friends, I know, it’s hard). Step 1. Pick a lake house; pick a date. Houston has a wealth of lakes, … Continue reading
I know what everyone is thinking: All inclusive? WHERE’S THE BAD!? But everyone has different vacation priorities. I’m typically a go-go-go adventurer. I want to see every part of Boston, leave no stone unturned in San Francisco, take all the photos in Austin, eat everything in San Diego, play tourist in D.C., and, well, you get … Continue reading
I know we usually do one-day posts, but…. GUYS, I couldn’t do it. I could NOT do Boston in 24 hours. I couldn’t narrow it down to JUST one day of activities. I had an absolute ball in Boston and I’m just going to go ahead and break the 24 hour trend. BECAUSE I’M AN … Continue reading
When it’s not football season, Baton Rouge is a sleepy college town, which is the complete opposite of my actual college town (aka Houston, so, yeah). There’s one strip of bars, LSU campus, the capitol of Louisiana, and the Mississippi. That’s Baton Rouge. I trekked down I10 (BTW, for 5.5 miserable hours) for a wedding, … Continue reading

Some ATX classic photo ops Whether it’s the classic Texas State Capitol shot or a freshly painted wall, we’ve got the best spots to strike a pose for an Insta-worthy shot.

So, it’s kind of like Houston, but more predictable. I first went to San Diego about 8 years ago, and … Continue reading
As Americans, we must do our American duty and make the pilgrimage to our Capitol, right? I had avoided it, until a couple weeks ago. I know no one in D.C. right now, and squandered the opportunity to visit when I did have friends there. So, when I got the opportunity to go for a … Continue reading
Santa Barbara, as all the Californians know, is home to Santa Claus during his off season, and Santa always deserves the best. SB IZ BOOTIFUL. The sun isn’t too hot, the water isn’t too cold and the palm trees are constantly waiving at you. It’s a pretty sleepy beach town, but gosh is is amazing. … Continue reading
I have a new favorite city, y’all. Well, aside from Houston. San Francisco is amazing (and the polar opposite of Houston). There’s tons of public transportation, elevation (what is that) and it’s COOOOOLLL. Like, midsummer… midday… in the sun… and sweater weather. If there’s a heaven, its climate is similar to San Fran’s. Here’s where … Continue reading
I’m an Htown transplant from Charlotte, North Carolina, and I have now been living in Texas for just over a year after spending the better part of the last decade in NC. It’s funny, though – I feel as though I already know some things waaay better about Houston than Charlotte! There’s something about living close … Continue reading
