If I told you that there was a business conference held at an adult summer camp, would you think I was crazy or be very excited? Enter Camp Indie, the world’s most fun conference, according to the website. I might be biased, and I haven’t been to all the conferences in the world, but look,…

Seaside, Florida Travel Guide
I’d never really even heard of Seaside before going there (on a “work retreat” aka a vacation with my coworkers). I live by the beach, so I don’t have a ton of people wanting to vacation with me to a different beach, and if I’m going to Florida, I’m going to Orlando (Harry Potter, anyone?).…

Lou Malnati’s pizza: Chicago travel guide
This is a double review of Lou Malnati’s, since I’ve had pizza from them twice on one vacation. Meagan ordered from Lou’s maybe a week before I came to visit. She texted me, excited that they had a gluten free menu, and then confused because they had the usual disclaimer that the pizza is finished…

San Francisco: Travel Guide
I went to visit my best friend in California this summer (at some point, I’ll post last year’s Louisiana pictures / trip information…). It was the first part of August, and she was then living in Modesto. I flew into San Jose, rented a car (from Avis this year), and made the lovely drive to…
