Last month, during the Thanksgiving week, I traveled to Washington DC to visit my parents for the holiday. Luckily, my current project is remote so I was able to work from Washington DC without a problem (other than that 3 hour time difference!). The last time I visited, I wasn’t able to sight see too much with only a couple days to see my parents and help them get moved in. So this time around, I knew I wanted to go to visit a few museums and other buildings around the National Mall, especially since my boyfriend joined us during the week too.

Vegetarian Eats at Smorgasburg LA plus Tips
A few weeks ago, I finally got around to going to Smorgasburg LA and I returned last weekend! Since I’ve been working from home, I’ve been trying to make weekends more exciting and Smorgasburg is perfect for that. Smorgasburg is a market with food vendors and shops.

What To Do In Thailand: Chiang Mai & Bangkok
I am back with regularly scheduled programming! Since the last time I posted about travel, I moved across the US and started a new job. I’m back to share my time in Chiang Mai and Bangkok, Thailand. If you missed the first few installments, be sure to read all about my time in Phuket and Krabi! Arriving in Chiang Mai We arrived in Chiang Mai mid-morning but quickly realized we needed more than a day and half for everything we wanted to do. While we were still at the airport, we extended our trip a few hours. This definitely cost more than if we […]
