Southwestern Seasons Greetings
Travel Recommendation
Location: Phoenix
My Recommendation Tip:
Few people living outside of Arizona would put the Grand Canyon state on their list of places to visit when it comes to getting in the mood for the holidays. Hollywood’s long tradition of Western movies created a cliche which seems to be omnipresent year-round in the minds of most first-time visitors to this region: a mildly to wildly romantic scenery of giant cacti flickering in the scorching heat, barely casting shadows on scraggy skeletons of dormant pioneer plants, patiently waiting for a series of seasonal downpours rich enough to restart their cycles of life. Not to forget about that half-buried cow skull peeking out of the bend of a dried-out river bed, bearing witness to the reliable absence of regular precipitation…

Busy downtown lunch spots, laid back Mission bistros as well as upscale Nob Hill restaurants, not only honor San Francisco’s culinary heritage but get their mostly organic produce every morning fresh from neighborhood farmers markets and local fisheries...

Street Fest Season Kicks Off in San Francisco
Travel Recommendation
Location: San Francisco
My Recommendation Tip:
It wouldn't be San Francisco if this year's start into her street fair and festival season wasn't about celebrating diversity. The 12th annual HOW WEIRD STREET FAIRE on Sunday, May 1st, and quot;envisions a place of peace, where all people can come and find some similarities and common interests among diverse music and art, building bridges of understanding and friendship and quot;...
