It’s been a little over seven months since I landed in San Francisco with one of my best friends and began my adventure towards my new life in LA.
Oh gosh that sounds so much cheesier than I intended, but it really is so hard to believe!
Time has flown by at warp speed! My second semester is halfway done, the calendar has filled up at an oddly fast pace, summer plans have finally started to take shape {more on that to come in a later post!} and my to-do list is somehow four pages long.
I don’t even know how that happened.
Actually I totally do. It can be summed up in two words: grad school. Thank goodness I love it this much {well, this business class I’m in has dampened the love a little bit…}!
Through all the tasks and the looming deadlines, I always make sure to take a few moments and look out my apartment window to stop and think ‘I live in California.’ I live in California. What is up with that? How is this my life?
So for the next few days, I’m going to show you just how beautiful this place is. That’s right, this little space of mine is going to be a flutter with lots of Pacific Coast Highway roadtripping photos. My goal is simple: to convince most, if not all of you, to do this trip if you haven’t already.
Here are some snapshots to get you excited for what’s to come!

I love California. I spent a couple of months there when I was 21 and I had the best time ever! Pacific Coast Highway is so beautiful; I dont think it’s possible to ever grow tired of it.
Looking forward to seeing your photos!
Love from England,

I know what you mean! Every time I venture to the beach I bring my camera and snap photos like I’m a tourist.
it really is gorgeous!! my favorite is the one looking down the pathway to the beach. take me there!
Thank you Helene! I took that in Capitola, a cute little town south by Santa Cruz.
I grew up in CA and still appreciate it every single day. ;)
I can imagine :)
Love this post! It’s a dream of mine to move to California… if only for a year or two. Love it so much there.
Yes you should! Highly encouraged.
capitola?? can’t wait to see all the pics!
Yes of course! I loved Capitola, those will be coming in due time.
I just found your blog, and wow, you live in Cali! That must be sooo incredibly awesome! Loving the pictures!
Thank you so much!
What a fun trip! The gloomy weather here in Amsterdam has me longing for the beach and sunshine!
I bet. Here’s to hoping your summer kicks in soon!
