To celebrate AAPI Heritage Month, I’m taking my family on a weekend cultural adventure with Holman BMW in Princeton!
My family and I spent a few unplugged days last month glamping at Blind Buck Valley Farmstead (BBVF) in the heart of Salem, just three hours outside NYC.
If I had to pick the one thing I loved the most about spring, it would, of course, have to be all the pretty flowers that come with the season – packing up my winter coats would be a sure close second.
Every spring and fall, Princeton University in Princeton, New Jersey brims in “lazy beauty”. There are winding paths and vibrant flowering trees amongst dramatic Gothic stone buildings – all of which provide stunning backdrops for seriously Instagrammable photos.
As a transplanted New Jersey girl for the last 5 years, I’ve considered myself an “almost New Yorker” long before, having come to the city every summer since I was a child to visit my grandmother who lived by herself in Lower Manhattan.
When a family crisis came up and we had to make an unexpected family trip to North Carolina last week, I barely had time to pack for myself, much less a family of five.
All over the internet people are posting about having a “hot girl summer,” the origin of which can be traced back to rapper Megan Thee Stallion’s new album “Fever.”
Since moving from DC to Jersey five years ago, I’ve only been back to Washington one time, for a brief two hours before hopping a plane to Iceland.
Without fail, the week before Memorial Day always gets me daydreaming about the dog days of summer ahead.
If you're a weekend warrior and live near New York City like me, then I suggest packing up your crew and heading into the city for a day of slow adventure!
One of our favorite trips ever as a family was to Iceland. It's been a little over a year and one month since we visited, and I'm suddenly feeling all nostalgic because I was secretly 13 weeks pregnant with baby Atticus, and it's where we announced our news!
We’ve been considering getting an electric vehicle for our family for quite some time.
