Every meal we ate in Charleston was fantastic, but The Glass Onion [1219 Savannah Hwy, Charleston, SC 29407] absolutely took the cake. Thankfully I had made a reservation weeks before visiting, because the place had quite a queue, it was even hard to get a spot in the parking lot! […]

Charleston is a city overflowing with bright colors, architectural charm, and palm trees. It’s very walkable, although there is also a free trolley that can get you to where you need to be. Parking can be a bit of a hassle, so if you plan on staying for a few […]

The Big Island is the youngest of the Hawaiian Islands and still has active volcanoes. For this reason, you won’t find as many long stretches of sandy beach as you would on the other islands, but a lot of rocky lava beaches. However, on this island you will find hot […]
I find myself California dreaming so often. It’s not just the winter weather getting me down, it happens in the summer too. Sure I love the California sunshine, the beautiful nature and beach, but really what California has that’s got me hankerin’ is some of the worlds best fish tacos. […]
I know my weaknesses. I don’t generally go for Italian food for that reason. When I see bread and pasta there is no stopping me. So I only have my affair with Italian once in a blue moon. Most recently it was with E.K. Cibo’s [1702 Chrisler Ave, Schenectady, NY […]
Driving into Malibu on the curvaceous roads you’ll see ritzy cars and glamorous homes on top of the hills across from the ocean. This is the pinnacle of living, take part in it, at least for a few hours. One of the most scenic beaches in the area is El […]
Lush rushing turquoise water culminating into magnificent falls! You cannot miss a trip to Krka National Park [Trg Ivana Pavla II. br. 5, Sibenik 22001] during your visit to Croatia. If you are staying in Split as we did, it is a bit of a journey to get to the […]
Eating the freshest fish beside the water which it just came from, could life be any better? Topolino [Riva 2, Bol, Brac Island 21420 , Croatia] in the town of Bol on the island of Brac was a perfect moment in time. We had spent a lovely day on the […]
There’s no better way to feel like you’re in old world Europe than to dine in the narrow alleyway of the Diocletian Palace in the restaurant Konoba Trattoria Bajamont [Bajamontijeva 3, Split, Croatia]. Perfectly dense and fluffy sourdough bread was served and I couldn’t help but eat it all. Our waiter […]
Skradin is a small town on the Krka River near the entrance to the Krka National Park. We were lured here for dinner for a number of reasons, and each dream was thoroughly made into a reality at Zlatne Skoljke [Grgura Ninskog 9, Skradin 22222, Croatia]. We ducked in out […]
Are you feelin lucky? We must have been walking in here without a reservation…Yet lucky we were, as the next party of two trying to come in was sent away. Don’t gamble. Make a reservation because you want to eat here. Zeller Bistro [Budapest, Izabella u. 38, 1077 Hungary] is […]
A few weeks back while downstate visiting my family I took a drive to Mt. Kisco, a town in northern Westchester that houses a fantastic preserve. The Arthur W. Butler Memorial Sanctuary [From I-684 to exit 4 (Route 172) west towards Mt. Kisco. After 0.3 miles, turn left onto Chestnut […]
I’m at the tail end of obtaining my masters degree so things are a bit busy on my end. I don’t have as much time to go far away trips and trails everyday; I’ve been staying close to home. As busy as I get I always find time to exercise, […]
Ko Olina Lagoons This was our absolute favorite beach, and we didn’t even mind traveling over a half an hour to get there, so worth it (Ko Olina exit off of Farrington Highway). The weather leeward was usually better than all other places on the island, so that was another […]
