THRILLIST: Why You Absolutely Need to Take a Trip Down to Tijuana, Mexico

THRILLIST:  San Diego’s 10 Best Neighborhoods for Dining Out, Ranked

San Diego’s city fathers and mothers (not to mention planners) are keen on telling us that ours is a “City of Neighborhoods.” They lied when they said it, and they lie now. San Diego is not a city of neighborhoods, never was, and cannot be for many reasons: Southern California … [Read more...]

September 20, 2016 mgardiner

THRILLIST:  THE VALLE DE GUADALUPE IS MEXICO’S WINE COUNTRY THAT YOU NEED TO BE VISITING, LIKE, YESTERDAY
