Pro tips:

*Get up early! Less people & street cleaning crews are out. Less heat to manage too!

*Plan to use the street car for easy movement between locations. 

*Check business hours.  It’s easier to get clean shots when establishment are closed or not fully open

In No Particular Order: Use the map to plan locations

ABOUT THE AUTHOR
Hey y’all! I'm Angie, a 50+ DC-based project manager and avid traveler. My passion for arts, culture, good food, palm trees and blue waters has taken me to some awesome places and wonderful experiences. I’m forever excited about seeing new places and revisiting the ones I love. As a seasoned traveler, I have honed my skills in crafting itineraries that cater to my travel style of “easy fabulousness”. I love to have soul-enriching, fun experiences in fabulous locations, from city trips to foreign countries to island hopping …especially if I can do it without breaking the bank. Also, as an event manager for over 25 years, my expertise lies in the details. True, anyone can plan trips & itineraries these days, but most of my requests come from those who don’t want to do all the leg work or don’t want the stress of putting it all together. My specialty is weaving together itineraries that are hearty, fun & feel effortless. Family & friends tag along with me on trips I plan for myself because they know my planning style is going to deliver a fantastic trip. More common though are the friends who pepper me with questions around coordinating trip activities like the timing between each and managing transportation options. We are easy & fabulous over here. Gone are the days of coming home tired and needing a vacation from vacation. Check out my guides and let me help take the stress out of trip planning. Also contact me for customized itineraries and travel planning services if you want to plan your next getaway together. Subscribe to this shop so you'll know when I have new guides. Let’s link on social too. See tags below
