Golden Gate State of Mind

When I turned 27 last October, I told myself that this year is going to be my year!! That means doing the things I love; traveling, blogging, exploring and living life! I was on a work trip to San Francisco. I’ve been to San Fransisco a few times, but I never got a chance to explore it like this. Lucky for me, the building to evacuated so work got cancelled. I spent the rest of my trip exploring the city. Initially, I attempted to use my rental car to drive around the city, bad idea. Driving in SF stressed me out, all the hills, the traffic and the parking. I then decided to return the rental and explore by foot. On my way to return the car, I got lost!

What started out as a stressful trip actually turned out to be pretty fun. I got to do a whole bunch of tourist things and hang out with my bestie. While she was at work I went to Palace of Fine Arts, reminded me so much of Balboa Park. It was beautiful. A sight worth seeing for sure. It was getting quite warm, so I decided on Ice Cream of course. I ended up at Smitten, I did not know it was famous, it was the closest ice cream place. Needless to say, it was good!!!!

Next day, Amina decided to join and explore her city with me. We started by getting Mac and Cheese in Oakland at Homeroom. It was delicious!!! So many different types of Mac and Cheeses. We then went to the Museum of Oakland. They had this dope hip hop exhibit. So much history and art. It was awesome sight to see. I ended the trip eating Peruvian food, which is actually one of favorites. My trip was filled with laughter, culture and sightseeing.
