I’ve been rocking out to my grunge playlists lately because I’m getting really excited for the West Coast Best Coast Road Trip I’m going on in May. I’m going to be visiting Portland, Seattle & Vancouver for the first time, with some stops along the way in Aberdeen and Olympia. Seeing as this week also marks the 18th anniversary of Kurt Cobain’s death, it seems a...

Bonne Année! Happy New Years 2012 from Paris!
I was fortunate enough this year to cross the Number One place off of my ever-growing travel wish list: Paris, France.
