Richmond, VA
March – April 2026 After a cold yet enjoyable stay in Atlanta, we packed up our Honda Fit, Pebble and headed north for Richmond, VA, a city that piqued our interest on our previous leg south from Portland, ME to Atlanta in 2024.

Southeast
Atlanta, GA, January – February 2026 Ever since staying in Inman Park in 2022, I knew Atlanta had a lot of potential. The city was planned around cable cars in its early years, and you can feel remnants of that aura. Unfortunately, as many people would attest to, the traffic in Atlanta is laughable, so…

Nashville – An Unexpected Welcome
It was 2:30AM when the first tornado sirens started blaring. Paloma’s iPhone gave that horrendous screech that the weather service sends out – the one that I had muted back in LA, and I bolted out of bed in search of my pants. Glancing out of the window (in this case, not the best idea),…

Wrapping Up St. Pete
January – March This last week in St. Pete did not go as I initially thought it would. I caught the flu and have been bedridden for the past five days. But I suppose this is the perfect opportunity to reflect on our time here and share what made us fall in love with St.…

From the Bay to the Sunshine State: Holiday Break and Journey to St. Pete, Florida
December 2024 After Thanksgiving in Atlanta, I headed straight back to my parents’ house in the San Francisco Bay Area.
