A couple of weeks ago, I journeyed back home to New Hampshire to spend time at Lake Sunapee and Lake Winnipesaukee. I was so so excited, and not just because my best friend was getting married, but also because I had new paddleboards waiting there for me. I’ve never tried this aquatic activity before, but trust me when I tell you that you do not need to be athletic to enjoy them. If my mom can do it, so can you.

It’s called the Museum of Ice Cream, and I finally achieved my life goal of visiting. Continue reading “The Most Magical Place in San Francisco”
On Saturday night at 6:30, my friend got a text saying, “Come to Vegas for the night, I got you a room.” After a little convincing from my end and quick packing, we made it to the airport for an 8:30 flight and touched down in Vegas for 10pm.
