I had been to Howe Caverns in my teens, and then again in my early 20s so really, I never thought I’d need to see another cave in the area. You’ve seen one you’ve seen them all, right? Howe Caverns is beautiful to be sure, I loved the boat ride, […]

Cities oftentimes have the best culture and food which is a major reason to visit, but they also are the most crowded and stressful scenario that makes you want to run away! Whenever I visit a major city I always find myself heading to the park to get out of […]
Like most cities Vancouver has a diverse conglomeration of peoples, with a particularly high Asian population – approximately 40%, which is great because there is more variety and opportunity for the best of one of my favorite cuisines! Garlic with Guu, 1698 Robson St, Vancouver, BC V6G 1C7, Canada I […]
Do you like an intense physical challenge? Then Grouse Grind [6400 Nancy Greene Way, North Vancouver, BC V7R 4K9, Canada] is your hike. The trail is a 1.8 mile staircase through the woods gaining 2,800 feet along the way. There are 2,830 stairs, you can purchase a Grind Timer Card […]
My favorite meal in Vancouver was from it’s only First Nations restaurant, Salmon n’ Bannock [1128 W Broadway #7, Vancouver, BC V6H 1G5, Canada]. The space is casual, decorated with interesting tribal art that is for sale, the service is warm and friendly. Most often I simply drink water when […]
I spent four short days in British Columbia this October, based out of Vancouver. The city and surrounding areas are amazing, devastatingly beautiful, but my favorite and most memorable day of all had to be the trip to Whistler, an hour and a half to the north on the Sea-to-Sky […]
I have been meaning to come back to Cooperstown for a long time to visit the Fenimore Art Museum [5798 NY-80, Cooperstown, NY 13326] and finally got the chance recently! Hours change throughout the year, and note that the museum is actually closed January-March. This was my last stop on […]
I had been meaning to make it out to the Bees Knees Café [989 Broome Center Rd, Preston Hollow, NY 12469] on Heather Ridge Farm for quite some time, but at an hour drive away from Albany and kind of in the middle of nowhere, it was hard to dedicate […]
Whether you view it as art, history, or both – the Poster Museum [122 Chambers St, New York, NY 10007] is sure to wow you. Philip Williams has been collecting since the 70s and the gallery is jam packed with international vintage posters – only a fraction of the 500,000+ artifacts […]
If you’re a crazy cat person like myself, you’ve probably heard of cat cafés and dreamed of visiting one. The concept was created in Japan, but countries around the world weren’t about to sit around with cat like jealousy simply looking on at this purrfect idea. They are sprouting up […]
There used to be plenty of pinball arcades in Manhattan, but now only one remains. Luckily for those who love the game, Modern Pinball [362 3rd Ave, New York, NY 10016] is a pretty amazing spot to be left with. It’s an unlimited play so no matter what your skill […]
I do not deny my desire to devour all the donuts of the world, and at Doughnut Plant they are so darn delicious. There are multiple locations to choose from depending on which side of the world you happen to wander, from Manhattan, Brooklyn, and Queens to Tokyo or Seoul. […]
Do you like chicken Caesar salads? It’s Jeff’s go to salad, he’s probably had thousands of them over the course of his life. We were going for dinner and he wasn’t even that hungry, so decided to order something a bit lighter. He wasn’t really all that excited for a […]
There wasn’t a whole lot of information offered online, so once again, thoughts started bubbling in my mind. I always feel like places aren’t going to exist! But there it was, a legitimate State Park sign, and a really spacious gravel parking lot. We had reached Wahconah Falls State Park […]
