We love doing yoga (we’re from California after all!). But something told me that this yoga class wouldn’t be like our usual Vinyasa flow. Within minutes of starting, our instructor encouraged us to talk and laugh as much as we wanted. Also to take plenty of photos. Oh, one other thing…
Los Angeles is full of secrets — and we keep uncovering new things even after a decade of living here. Kevin and I recently were invited by Cartwheel Art to check out one of the most unique tours we’ve ever taken: a trip deep into the underground network of tunnels…
An ancient Egyptian city buried in California? Yes, you read that right. We recently took a 6-day journey through California’s central coast. While researching unique and quirky places along the way (as well as bakeries… you know my priorities!), I came across a hidden gem known locally as “The City of the Pharaoh”…
Kevin and I are always on the lookout for fun places to explore. And one of our new favorite spots seems to be California’s central coast — an area that roughly stretches from Santa Cruz in the north to Santa Barbara in the south. This is now our third trip…

Feeling nostalgic for the 1980’s? Kevin and I recently checked out two hot spots in Los Angeles re-creating the glory days. Or maybe just imagine the 80’s if you’re like our 20-year old assistants that miss about every throwback reference we have (and make us feel totally ancient!). The wall…
Valle De Guadalupe remains one of our favorite travel destinations. We’ve come here over the past 5 years, and it truly gets better every time (check out our past blog posts here). But what’s most shocking to us is just how many of our friends in Los Angeles have never…
Puebla, the landlocked Mexican state located just 2 hours by car from Mexico City, is a fun and easy road trip that will mix things up on your Mexican adventure. It makes a great detour especially if you’re doing 5 days in Mexico City. We arrived! I stand in front…
