Cancun, Mexico! The party town for spring breakers. Home of ‘Girls Gone Wild.’ Or… Cancun, Mexico! Honeymoon central. Where lovers come to love. Or… Cancun, Mexico! Where Mani C.G. went to escape! My first trip to Cancun ruined all stereotypes I had because it is honestly a destination for anyone who enjoys the beach. They’ve got tourism down!... Read more »
It’s summertime in LA! That means, it’s time to bust out the blankets, the picnic baskets and bottles of your favorite wine and partake in all the outdoor activities this city has to offer. Thanks to the Los Angeles County Museum of Art, better known as LACMA, we can start our summer weekends... Read more »
Growing up in Miami, either your family is from the Bahamas or you know someone whose family is from the Bahamas. For me and my bestie, we fall under both categories. So when trying to figure out what big New Year’s plans we’d make, Junkanoo in Nassau was the likely choice. A little... Read more »

In all honesty, I didn’t know who Gary Baseman was before a friend of mine asked that we go checkout his exhibit at the Skirball. In fact, I’d never even heard of the Skirball Cultural Center before this invite (still a Los Angeles newbie). However as a Disney fanatic, I do remember the Disney series... Read more »
San Diego is one of the “staycation” destinations for folks in Los Angeles. It’s only about a 2h drive (with min traffic) which isn’t bad for a quick turnaround trip. I was registered for a social media conference in San Diego so decided to make a day of it. I got there with... Read more »
RENT is one of my all-time favorite musical masterpieces. I say masterpiece because it’s an awesome show, awesome soundtrack, awesome movie! I LOVE RENT! So when I saw this Travelzoo deal show-up for $17 general admission tix (usually $34), it was a done deal. I probably would’ve paid full-price too… but getting half-off... Read more »
Went for a picnic in the gardens but there’s no eating in the park… Sooooo… there goes that! So, after we ate… outside… we went on in… and so the post about Descanso Gardens begins… Call me lazy if you wanna, but I totally recommend taking the tram tour. It’s how I learned all about the history... Read more »
