Pop-up art exhibits and installations have been the rage within the past few years. From artists providing Instagrammable backgrounds to collaborating with other creatives to curate a unique experience for patrons, it is a great way for local residents to learn and appreciate the arts and the blood, sweat, and tears behind the work. The Van Gogh Immersive Exhibit in San Francisco is no expection to this.
It may be blazing hot in NorCal (quite literally with the fires from a few weeks ago) and there is not a crunchy red leaf in sight, but that did not stop Cecilio and I from heading up to Apple Hill once the skies cleared up.
Back in 2015, Cecilio and I stayed in New York City for about 6 days (this was the trip where he proposed to me in Central Park). The day before we went to Central Park, we dedicated our afternoon to pay a visit to the Statue of Liberty and Ellis Island via the ferry. It’s only fitting that I share this as the Fourth of July in the US passed.
Like almost everyone else, I entered 2020 bright-eyed and hopeful for the start of a new decade. While I had many wonderful memories of the 2010s, a lot of moments were pretty much a shitstorm for me. I was (and still am) hopeful for new milestones in the upcoming decade: getting healthier, more travels, growing in my career, and starting a family.
Planning a trip to Cancun or the Riviera Maya? Most travel buffs would have you avoid going to Xcaret Park, known as the “Disneyland of Mexico”. Maybe there is some truth to that, but that should absolutely not let it stop you from scoping it out!
Father’s Day is tomorrow, and it’s a weird holiday for me to celebrate now. It’s been 7 years since my dad passed away. Since then, I have gained a stepdad and a father-in-law, both of whom I love. But that void of losing a parent will never go away.
