Is it springtime in DC yet? I hope so. I took these shots last May in the Capitol Hill neighborhood near Eastern Market. DC is so lovely in the springtime and Ican’t lie… I kind of miss it. (Do you have a photo you’d like to see featured here? Email me at Steph@twenty-somethingtravel.com)

Ahh it’s March! This time last year I was taking a break from my trip preparations to visit a friend in San Francisco! I love so much about that city: from the harbor to the golden gate bridge. One thing I think I would not love is driving, if this sign is any indication…. (Do [...]

Usually I get guest post offers about all sorts of exotic destinations.

Posted on 03. Sep, 2010 by .

I may owe New Jersey an apology.  After years of family road trips up and down the turnpike, I may have agreed with the common “America’s Armpit” assessment. That was until I had a Jersey native offer to show me more of what his state had to offer. After spending a sunny evening sprawled on [...]
