Clatyon is another little town in the Thousand Islands region. Not quite as busy as Alexandria Bay, but that certainly adds to the charm of it. Although there is a huge hotel on the waterfront, and surely the wave like presence of tourists in the summer – you can almost […]

When I told a friend I would be staying in the town of Joshua Tree he said, ‘Why? There’s nothing in the town but the park – stay in Palm Springs instead.’ I was nervous about my decision, had I made a mistake? As it turns out I visited both […]
One of the most majestic and unique lands I have ever seen, Sequoia and Kings Canyon National Park are what dreams are truly made of. The two separate parks are conjoined twins situated beside one another, sharing one admission and totally different personalities – both worth exploring! If you only have one […]
Torvehallerne [Frederiksborggade 21, 1360 København K, Denmark] is different from your typical city market. It’s small, quiet, hygge, and slightly high end, perfectly suited for Copenhagen. It doesn’t open until 10am, 11 on Sundays. There are two little buildings that hold just a couple of vendors; one has more food […]
Breakfast is the most important meal of the day, and when that day is jam-packed with a travel itinerary it is important to be well fed from the get go. Since we were based out of Nørrebro we spent a good deal of time on Jægersborggade Street, a short block […]
If you are looking to start your day off right in the Catskills, head to Twin Peaks Coffee and Donuts in Tannersville, [5950 Main St Tannersville, New York] your day might just be complete after breakfast. I fell in love at first sight, and that love was solidified at first […]
Nibble? More like cram into your face, these gourmet donuts at Nibble in Troy [461 Broadway, Troy, NY 12180] are seriously tasty. I popped in to this lovely little nook on a weekend morning and it was bustling. I stood in line for a short time, service is quick, and […]
The term greasy spoon must have been coined after visiting Dan’s Place Two in Albany [494 Washington Ave, Albany, NY 12203 ]. Blink and you might miss it driving up Washington Ave through the Student Ghetto; a tiny little diner nestled between the areas typical slums. Don’t shy away, come in […]
Chatham is my favorite little quaint town in Columbia County, there are so many great options here. I recently visited Ben Gable Savories [17 Central Sq, Chatham, NY 12037] for the first time and fell in love at first glance. The gorgeous wallpaper is covered with birds! Off to a […]
We stayed in Pacific Beach as many tourists do when visiting San Diego, and enjoyed it very much for our needs. The location is very central to all neighborhoods of the city, many shops (specifically Garnet St.) and restaurants are in walking distance, and the beach is beautiful. Our hotel […]
If you’re looking for a breakfast sandwich that’s absolutely delicious, fast, with no frills…you go to Jack’s (547 Central Avenue, Albany, NY 12206). The classic dining car is located on Central Ave and has a parking lot, a quick drive from Center Square. We had a late start and got […]
Diamond Head (Lighthouse, Military Remnants, Tunnels, Waikiki) This is the quintessential Oahu hike located right in Waikiki, everyone does it and the trail is packed accordingly. There are many things that make this hike very interesting and unique, but it is really hard to look past the throngs of people […]
I always save room for dessert, especially in Oahu. Leonard’s Bakery (Masaladas, Cheap Eats, Dessert, Honolulu) Our trip to this bakery was unexpected. I had it on my radar and definitely planned on getting some masaladas (a Portuguese donut) for dessert one night, but life can throw curveballs. We were […]
Boots & Kimo’s (Cheap Eats, Breakfast, Windward) Other than delicious acai bowls, this was the only breakfast we went out for and I wouldn’t change a thing. Mac (macadamia) nuts are huge in Hawaii, and if you’ve never had them you should investigate because they are delicious. Mac nuts can […]
Oahu is very culturally diverse and has a large population of people from across the Asian continent. One of our favorite Asian derived dishes was the Japanese food we had at Marukame Udon, though there were many other great finds including: Royal Kitchen (Chinese, Cheap Eats, Lunch, Honolulu) This is an […]
