Why Napa Valley Isn’t Just for Wine Lovers
A popular destination for wine lovers everywhere is Napa, CA. There are about 400 wineries total in this wine region, complete with wine tasting rooms. However, Napa—which is also known as “wine country"—is not just about the wine. Yes, some may think it is, especially after seeing how many wineries there are. Okay, so it’s mainly about the wine, but what if I told you there is so much more to do and see in Napa, and it doesn’t include wine at all?!

An Honest Review of Hilton Head Island in the Off-Season
Picture a breathtaking coastline that goes on for miles. The birds are chirping, children are playing in the sand, and you are relaxing with the toes in your sand. Now picture this same scene, but in early March. The off-season for East Coast beaches can be just as enjoyable as the warm on-season. Most of the shops are open for business, and the restaurants offer some of the freshest seafood you can find. But what is it really like to visit Hilton Head in the off-season? Is it insanely cold or miserably boring? No! Hilton Head Island has tons to offer even in the off-season. I am going to speak the honest truth of my experience, the good and the bad. Take a virtual trip with me to Hilton Head Island, South Carolina.

Taking a Bite Out of The Big Apple
New York City has always held a deep fascination for me, a girl from a small coastal city in South Africa with no concept of skyscrapers or subway systems. What I knew of New York I learned from movies and TV shows, and believed the city to be glamorous, gritty, alive with possibilities, and heaving with people & cultures. Yet I wasn't to discover this for myself until this year, after many years of travelling around Africa, UK, and Europe.

Explore Bar Harbor, Maine
Downtown Bar Harbor, shops and restaurants. In the heart of downtown Bar Harbor is a small but beautiful park with plenty of shady or sunny spots to relax in the grass. This is also the central bus stop to catch connecting buses to many spots in Acadia or around Mount Desert Island. Downtown is filled with plenty of restaurants and bakeries to fill any craving you may have. You can find the most delicious lobster mac and cheese at West Street Café and for dessert, a highly recommended swirled wild blueberry cheesecake slice from Pink Pastry shop! While walking through downtown you can expect to find many local shops promoting products made right in Bar Harbor. It was here I tried my first ever blueberry soda, It was so tasty I bought a whole case! One unique downtown gem was the movie local theater located straight across from the park. We had some extra time and caught a cheap but brand new movie and was surprised to have the ability to order pizza right to our seats.
