After a fun-packed start to our Colorado trip last weekend, Joe and I stayed in Crested Butte for one more week. This past week was more low-key as Joe was “working from the mountain” on weekdays, while I hiked on my own and relaxed during the day. After work, we fully took advantage of our … More Hiking and summer mountain vibes in Crested Butte, Colorado
After our visit to New York, Joe and I headed up to Maine for 5 days where we visited Joe’s good friend Neal. Joe actually lived in Maine for a few years, so it was nice to have him and Neal take us around the local sites – it felt special to see Joe’s old … More Road trip through coastal Maine + hiking and lake time + boat ride to port towns
I don’t know about you, but with Labor Day right around the corner, all I want to do is soak up the last bit of summer. Luckily I’ve been in upstate New York these last 2 weeks where it’s been absolutely lovely as I’ve been surrounded by family and enjoying the east coast summer. I … More Hometown things + meeting my dog nephew + my 28th birthday
Happy Monday! I’m currently blogging from my hometown, Poughkeepsie, NY, where I’ve been this past week visiting my family. Now that I live on the west coast, seeing my family is more difficult, so I’m definitely treasuring all the quality time during my three weeks here. Last week, our home had myself, mom, dad and … More Family time in upstate New York
Hope you had a wonderful weekend and are staying cool this summer! Things have been calm and pleasant here in San Francisco as I’ve been savoring my last few weeks here before spending the rest of the summer traveling. I’m really excited to get out of my routine and feel like a nomad again. Joe … More Flight lesson with Joe + last weeks before traveling
Happy first day of June!! I have a lot to share as we packed a lot of activities last week and Memorial Day weekend. Originally Joe and I had a weekend trip booked to Lassen Volcano National Park, but last minute we decided to cancel and stay in San Francisco instead (we were “volcano-ed out” … More Mini-golf birthday celebration + day trip to Six Flags + Memorial Day barbecue + exploring the sunny Mission
Thank god it’s Monday (said no one ever!). Jokes aside, entering this week feels more optimistic as Memorial Day is next weekend and there’s always that anticipation before a long weekend. 🙂 It’s been two weeks since returning from Hawaii, and overall it’s been pretty low key here. The first week back was mostly filled … More Joe’s birthday party and garden debut
Hi blogging friends! How was your long weekend? Joe and I originally had plans to drive up to Clear Lake last weekend, but the air quality from the wildfires looked pretty bad up there, so we last minute decided to stay put in SF. At this point, we’ve canceled so many plans last-minute this year … More Labor Day fun – picnics, bbqs, and heat waves
Last weekend was truly a special one. It was my first visit to Yosemite National Park, a place I’ve been dying to visit since moving to California 3 years ago. After failing several times to find campground reservations over the last few years, Rene’s sister scored a few hotel rooms right in the Valley, and … More Birthday weekend in Yosemite National Park
Hi friends! How are YOU? I’m coming out of a pretty fun weekend that hit a major sweet spot. After months of missing parties and events getting canceled (for obvious reasons), Joe and I found an outdoor event called the “Maskerade,” hosted by a Burning Man camp at the Midway. I’ve been SO missing these … More Outdoor burner dance party + exciting garden additions + cacao ceremony
