    I know what you’re thinking: TOURIST TRAP WHY??? And trust me I usually don’t like a lot of the tourist stuff and I really feel Hollywood Blvd is much like Times Square in NYC (HELL) but I do find the outside of the Chinese Theater very interesting, provided you aren’t there late morning – early…

    Many people love St. Tropez. Before I went I heard from multiple people “You must go to Saint Tropez!” So, on my second visit to the Cote D-Azur region I went to Saint Tropez. After driving out to Saint Tropez, and walking around for a little bit I thought, “Why did I come to Saint…

    Place Sainte-Catherine 50, 1000 Bruxelles, Belgium I totally dig Croquettes and I totally dig shrimp. So when I read online about Noordzee Mer du Nord and their shrimp croquettes I knew I’d be taking a trip there. First off their menu goes far beyond shrimp croquettes and it seems everyone loves them as they were…

    874 State St New Haven, CT 06511 So we all know pizza comes from Italy, more specifically Napoli. But here in America we have some well known pizza hubs, New York City (and for whatever reason) Chicago deep dish. But if you’ve watched any travel channel or any cooking channels (and I assume if you…

    Back in 2013 I was in Cannes for the Cannes Film Festival. If you weren’t aware I work in Film and Television as well. Acting comes with some nice perks, like going to Cannes. As glamours as it may sound, the festival is long and the days can be grueling and hectic. Sometimes you just…

    In Copenhagen I took the bus to head over to Grød for breakfast. Grød is a place that serves sweet or savory porridge. In America we call porridge oatmeal and before my stay in Iceland last year, I had no idea oatmeal could be savory. An Italian girl who was my roommate and that I…

Both times I stayed in Cinque Terre I stayed in Corniglia. Corniglia is in the middle of Cinque Terre with two villages on either side. It is technically a…

    1000 Shore Rd, Cape Elizabeth, ME 04107 For a brief moment I could have believed I was in Iceland (it certainly was cold enough) if it wasn’t for the trees. Just a short drive from Portland is  Fort Williams Park. The park beautiful under a blanket of snow. There’s a great vantage point of the…
