Los Angeles

Oh La La Land, how I love thee! The City of Angeles is by far one of my favorite domestic destinations. Every time I step off the plane in California, my stress level goes down by at least 85%. Maybe it’s the sun or perhaps it’s the sand, but Los Angeles has a very special place in my heart. I always look forward to visiting. 
Additionally, the agency I work for has an office in Santa Monica, and the team always makes me feel at home. They’re truly so wonderful, and it’s so close to the Promenade. Over the years, I’ve been able to explore so much of the areas and neighborhoods of LA, and I’m always excited to see more during each trip!

  • Window shopping on Rodeo Drive
  • Happy hour at The Tower Bar at the Sunset Tower Hotel
  • Attend the Veuve Clicquot Polo Classic (annually in October)
  • Stroll the Venice Boardwalk (and spend some time on the beach!)

  • Coffee Break at Alfred’s
  • Attend a concert at The Hollywood Bowl
  • Eat fresh at the Santa Monica Farmer’s Market
