Arroyo Burro Beach County Park

Welcome to my completely unorganized but oh-so-helpful map of Chicago! 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 Chicago 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! First US introduction to avocados! Best to visit Sep-Nov. Great for biking and dog-friendly. A favorite city of Julia Child’s. Cheaper lodging in West Beach.

A hidden gem in California! With the Santa Ynez Mountains behind the city creating a dramatic backdrop and the Pacific Ocean views, this is the perfect getaway if you're looking for a Mediterranean feel. If you are a huge foodie who loves beaches, hot springs, hikes, horseback riding, wine tastings, shops and bars. This guide is for you! Whether you have a long weekend or just a couple of days, these are the best things to do and see in “America’s Riviera”
