After a couple days in Manhattan, Alex and I met up with our friends and boarded a train from the brand new Moynihan Train Hall at Penn Station. We headed northward for two hours and arrived at Hudson Station for the farm portion of our New York trip. Our good friends Do-Hee and Josh had …
Alex and I spent almost two weeks of September in New York, and we just happened to catch the transition from summer into fall. Of course it would have been nice to know that would happen before we left, because we had zero rain-appropriate clothing, but alas. We still had such a wonderful time, both…
Alex and I got to take a brief road trip down to LA for Labor Day weekend since I had a wedding to photograph down there. Our friends Jon and Pei were kind enough to host us, and we managed to squeeze a lot into our brief visit! First, scenes from our drive down: a…
We had such a wonderful time in Calgary, arriving on Canada Day (July 1st) and staying just past the Fourth of July. We stayed at an airbnb in Inglewood, just east of Downtown, and it was perfectly situated for a few days of exploring the city. Lucky for us, dinner on night one was right…
We ventured out on a wonderful Southern California road trip last month, with Ojai as the ultimate destination. But of course, as with the best road trips, we made plenty of other stops along the way as well, including a two-night stay in Los Alamos. First up, a stop for lunch in Paso Robles, which…
Were it not for Alex, who spotted the Skyview Los Alamos boutique motel on a previous road trip to Southern California, I may have never found about this town’s existence. I certainly had never heard of a Los Alamos in California, knowing only of its counterpart in New Mexico, which is famous for being the…
Ski week! In February, Alex and I headed east for a long weekend in the mountains. He went snowboarding two of the days, while I found plenty of other ways to entertain myself, since I can ski but I don’t love it nearly as much as Alex does. We stayed in Reno, Nevada, which I had…
Stealth trip! Alex and I hopped on a plane to NYC in early December and posted nothing about it publicly (at least not right away), because I was on a secret mission to surprise Whitney on the Brooklyn Bridge for her proposal! The surprise was a success, and we got to stay a few extra…
After a week in Las Vegas, we continued on our grand road trip to Los Angeles for “Second Thanksgiving” with the Yaus. Here is Alex at the Yauhaus. And our first meal, Taiwanese breakfast from Huge Tree. Important activity, watching Michigan beat Ohio State for the first time in a decade! I was born at…
After three nights of camping in Death Valley, we decided to continue on to Las Vegas, which is only an additional ~2 hours east. We were aiming for a nice shower and a week of relaxation and feasting, and it was Thanksgiving, after all! Alex booked us a very nice stay at the new NoMad…
I was thrilled to visit Los Angeles when Suleen brought me down for her beautiful elopement. I had been feeling like I was overdue for a trip to LA anyway, and I loved that this all lined up. Since it was the middle of wedding season I had fun turning the trip into a workation,…
We’ve reached the finale of our Switzerland adventures! Talya and I headed to Zurich for the last stop on our trip. She just had part of a day there, and I had about 24 hours. After checking in to my hotel, we went out to lunch at a place called Roots and Friends, which was…
