Was it worth the Price? This is not your average hotel stay. It’s a bucket list destination in itself, at least for us, who are not the Kardashians or the Zuckerbergs of the world. Whether it’s worth the spend depends solely on you. I saw photos of it years ago and knew I would want […]

Every summer, my family would pack up the car, blast some classic rock (think Tom Petty, Fleetwood Mac, and the occasional Lynyrd Skynyrd singalong), and head west for beach days, lighthouse climbs, and the BEST […]

I chickened out halfway and switched to management, because I thought it was more practical.

Oakland International Airport (OAK) is the easiest and closest to fly […]
835 Morocco is an amazing place to travel. If you have 10 days in the country, the best way to spend it is by seeing the old cities and traditional markets, plus the Atlas mountains and desert scenery. This itinerary has each of those things.
