When I started looking for a hotel in San Diego, I considered several options. Having been to San Diego before, I knew that I wanted to stay in one of the city's great neighborhoods rather than the downtown/Gaslamp district where I had stayed several times before. So I first turned to one of my favorite accommodation sites, AirBnB. My first choice (and one of the cheapest options overall) was ...
A North County San Diego Brewery Tour
There are more than 50 breweries in San Diego County, with new ones opening every day, it seems. The industry is growing so quickly that some are calling the city the "Beer Capital of California." (Okay, maybe that was just me--but it'll catch on!)

The hand-painted advertisements and public notices that adorn walls in Latin America are often part of my favorite images of street life. When exploring Otavalo, Ecuador, I enjoyed this not-so-subtle reminder to get out and vote.

It was a thousand degrees outside and humid as hell, so we retreated into a neighboring restaurant to cool off. We sat down at the bar, where we met Greg, who was working the bar. We chatted him up, finding out that he was originally from ...
The Pliny the Younger Pilgrimage: A Beer Geek’s Rite of Passage
This is a guest post written by Suki D. of [Super Duper Fantastic]. Who in their right mind waits hours in line for beer?! Me, that's who, and for two years in a row! The first year, in 2011, we waited 2.5 hours, and I lamented over how the only line longer in which I've waited was the buffet line at the Bellagio. What I didn't know at the time was that I'd be even more ridiculous the following ...
