Daughter Thai Tacos
Dubbed as the Best Thai Restaurant in the Bay, and this is indeed living up to its name. Ever since my trip to Thailand a few years ago, Thai food has become one of my favorite foods. As a new resident of the Bay Area, I’m on a mission to find the most delicious restaurants in my new neighborhood. Daughter Thai is located in the neighborhood of Montclair in Oakland with tons of parking nearby.
That had to be one of the most popular questions I was asked when I talk about my trip to Zanzibar. Last May I had the pleasure of traveling to this exotic Island which is off the coast of mainland Tanzania, Africa.
Living in New York for 6 years Trader Joe’s became my go-to for groceries. Since I was there so often and loved their food products, I found myself venturing into some of their beauty products. Some may not know, but Trader Joe’s does have a line of their beauty products and also carries some brands you are all familiar with. So don’t skip past the beauty section, it’s a small but mighty section!
As some of you may know that I recently relocated to the West Coast for a new job opportunity. I have been here for about 3 months, and can’t believe I’ve lasted this long 🙂 In the three months, I have moved into my very own first apartment, and have been adulting every bit of the way. I wish I could go back in time, and be a young girl with no worries. Since that is not my reality I am taking it one day at a time, and adjusting to West Coast Living. It takes time to adapt to this new life of mine so please excuse me as I get my life together.
I’m finally getting around to recapping the last bit of my Morocco trip, and you know what they say it’s better late than never!! When I got to Marrakesh, I was amazed by all the beautiful architecture and delicious food. If you plan to head to Morocco and more specifically Marrakech. Here are my 5 things that you must experience when you visit:
A couple of months ago I got to take a trip of a lifetime and travel to Morocco with some close friends. I also was able to travel to Zanzibar at the beginning of May. Both countries are popular African destinations, so I want to share my experiences with you. If you didn’t get a chance to check out my IG stories yet, be sure to head to my Instagram and watch the Morocco and Zanzibar stories.
If you find yourself being stuck at the airport for longer, than 4 hours you will probably go crazy by just having to wait. On my recent trip to Morocco I had to change my flight to get ahead of the snow storm but then ended up having an 8-hour layover in Montreal. Here are some ways that helped me stay sane and kill time during this long layover.
In honor of Mardi Gras just passing I’m throwing it back to recap my New Orleans trip I took this summer. It was my first time visiting, and I honestly fell in love! The city of fantastic seafood, Cajun any and everything, and beignets. You can’t forget to get the beignets. If you do one thing when you go to NOLA, do yourself a favor and go and get some beignets, and go multiple times.
I finally got to take the trip I’ve been dying to for years now. I was so happy to finally have experienced NOLA I also got to attend Essence Festival as a bonus.
Last month was my 29th birthday, and I got to escape the negative 4 degree weather to celebrate on the west coast. Ever since my visit to LA last year I knew I had to come back and explore more. Everything about this trip was perfect. We had fantastic weather that it made me forget it was January. Each day the temperature would wiggle between the 70s to 80s! Yes, 80 degrees in January. It had me questioning why I am choosing to deal with these harsh conditions. 😩
29 & feelin fine 🙂
For the past couple of weeks, we have been freezing in NYC with temperatures as low as 6 degrees. Yes, not a typo. With temperatures so low I don’t blame people for wanting to stay indoors. It’s too cold to be out wandering the streets unless good food is involved!
