A slice of Rome in San Fran. Great place to walk around, explore, and take some insta worthy photos.

A row of colourful Victorian houses. Cute place for a picnic at Alamo Square nearby. It is a 30 min walk to Mrs Doubtfire's House.

Admire the cars going down the most crooked street in the world. We would recommend driving there unless you are after a calf workout.

ABOUT THE AUTHOR

Hi, I'm Sarah.
I am learning to be a more flexible traveler and go with the flow - but this is a work in progress. I often need a plan whilst traveling, knowing I have something memorable to do or see coming up to make the most of my time.
I would describe my travel style as an explorer - enjoying exploring sights, hikes (suitable for my low fitness level), and activities. I am not much of a foodie but desserts and snacks will always catch my eye.
I hope my posts help you with your travel planning.
