Guide to San Francisco

Ferry Bldg from Embarcadero Center

I moved to San Francisco in 2012 and set out exploring the city with a passion, neighborhood by neighborhood. Mostly on foot. I even put together a bucket list of places to visit in the Bay Area. Now years later, I’ve got some favorite spots, and I’m more than happy to share a few of them with you.

When you sign up for my email newsletter, you’ll automatically get an email including:

  • My favorite things to eat in the Ferry Building (above)
  • My favorite spot to take in a view of the city
  • My favorite urban hike (also with great views)
  • My favorite Thai food and taquerias in the city, and
  • My favorite scenic route to wine country, which includes a quirk spot in Golden Gate Park that lots of locals miss.

A few of these are well know, but most get missed by visitors and tourists I’ve talked to in the city!
