The Salt Line

After going to college in the area, and spending the majority of my twenties in DC, I amassed a collection of favorites bars, restaurants, activities, and coffee shops. Here you'll find my tried and true favorites, plus some recommendations from my current local friends there.

Welcome to my completely unorganized but oh-so-helpful map of Washington DC! An absolute smorgasbord of my own travels and research, suggestions from friends and strangers, and many treasures found along the way, this is where I compile all things DC for my future trips and yours. Things I particularly love that you’ll find a lot of: ☕️ Coffee shops & bakeries 🌮 Local cuisine 🏛️ Museums of all kinds 🌳 Gardens & parks 🛏️ Boutique hotels 🍕 Small regional chains with good reputations All my guides in this category are $5 per 100 places included, but since I add to these constantly, you can lock down the lowest price today and gain a lifetime access! *Great public transportation; I suggest getting Metro Pass.

Consider Washington DC as your next travel destination! It is the perfect destination for history buffs, art lovers, foodies and so much more! Plus where to find the best spots to photograph cherry blossom season 🌸🌸 In this guide I share all of my favorite places to stay, eat and explore!
