Your 24 Hour Travel Guide: The Best Way to Spend 24 Hours in Atlanta

August 23, 2018

Atlanta, Georgia is a vibrant and bustling metropolitan city situated in the heart of the American South.  I had long wanted to visit Atlanta due to its historic significance during the Civil War and the Civil Rights Movement and, a few weeks ago, finally had the opportunity to explore firsthand all that the city has to offer.  As you might remember, I spent my birthday of this year in New Orleans, Louisiana, so comparisons between the two cities were fresh on my mind.  While New Orleans manages to maintain a certain sense of veiled mystique, Atlanta is a city that lays it all out there and tells it like it is.

As a medium-sized US city, Atlanta is overflowing with activities to keep visitors entertained, regardless of your background.  With so much to explore, it can be challenging to narrow down must-see sights, especially if you are pressed for time during your visit.  This guide to the best way to spend 24 hours in Atlanta contains something for everyone, offering a list of must-see attractions guaranteed to pique your interest and leave you wanting to book the next flight to Georgia.

Our Cross Country Road Trip Vlog

July 2, 2018

I am beyond excited to share today’s post with you because it is one that is very special to me.  Today’s cross country road trip vlog is perhaps my favorite vlog to date that my husband and I have worked on together.  Unlike our prior travel vlogs where we can be seen running around on vacation (catch up on New Orleans, London, Venice, and Paris), this one shows the two of us and our adorable pups embarking on one of the biggest journeys of our lives as we pack up our life in Los Angeles and drive cross country to Kansas City, Missouri to our new awaiting home.

This cross country road trip ended up being the journey of a lifetime.  Not only was it a bonding experience for all four of us, it also exposed us to some of the most incredible examples of natural beauty that the United States has to offer.  The two of us have spent so much time overseas, in many ways we neglected the beauty and gifts right outside our front door.  Now that we are settling into our life in Kansas City, we are already anxious to get back on the road and explore this new region that we call home.  I hope you all enjoy our cross country road trip vlog!

Our Coachella 2018 Vlog

April 30, 2018

In the days and weeks leading up to Coachella, I made no secret about the fact that I was positively bursting with excitement over the prospect of returning to my favorite music festival.  I listened to my Coachella playlists on repeat; I planned my looks for each day of the festival prior to ever leaving Los Angeles; I had even mapped a good portion of how I wanted this Coachella 2018 vlog to look in advance.  I was PREPARED!  What is that saying about the best laid plans?  Oh yes, they will go awry and, friends, awry they went.

I ultimately ended up attending 35% of the music festival before my right hip decided it had enough and gave out.  This happened shortly over an hour before Beyoncé took the stage on the second night of the festival.  You know, Beyoncé, one of the acts I was most looking forward to seeing!  In addition to dealing with a great deal of pain I was, understandably, disappointed on a massive scale.  You see, not only had I desperately wanted to see Beyoncé’s epic performance live I had, more than anything, wanted to spend the three-day festival having incredible experiences with some of my closest friends prior to our upcoming move out of state.

I was CRUSHED.  If I am being completely honest, I genuinely considered not releasing this vlog because I thought it would be too painful to relive the memories and try to fill in the gaps that I missed.  But, as my husband and I began sifting through footage, an incredible thing happened.  Those very friends I was so disappointed to not spend time with began sending their Coachella footage, and lots of it.  I got Beyoncé’s performance guys, and I got ALL of it!  Following Beyoncé, Chromeo was sent to us, then Odesza, then Eminem and, little by little, this vlog began to take shape.  Our Coachella 2018 vlog may not have ended up quite as planned but, with a little help from my friends, it turned out to be even more meaningful than anticipated.

The Six Best Bars in New Orleans (Because Five Just Wasn’t Enough)

April 26, 2018

I know what you are thinking, bars and New Orleans go hand in hand, right?  Well, yes, they are, historically, a match made in heaven.  After all, New Orleans grew out of a disease-infested swamp originally populated almost solely by criminals and prostitutes.  It should therefore come as no surprise that bars are a deep-rooted part of the city’s culture.

What does come as a surprise, at least to me, is how established and impressive of a craft cocktail scene the city has in our modern day.  Let’s just say that you don’t want to travel to Crescent City without this guide to the six best bars in New Orleans by your side.

New Orleans is overflowing with history, beauty, and, yes, alcohol, with NOLA's historic and modern bars working hand in hand to carve out the city's decidedly unique cocktail scene.  Carry this guide to the six best bars in New Orleans with you on your next trip to the city to explore everything that this town offers.
