Went to our very favourite place in California and made a joint decision to make it official and forever 💛💍
Spent the afternoon in the ghost town of Bodie, an hour from Mammoth Lakes. A gold rush boom town in the 1880s, it had a full working mine - and saw outlaws, saloon shoot outs and stage holdups; with boiling summers, and 20-below snowy winters 🤠💰 But when the gold ran out and the town was ravaged by fire, it became a ghost town in the early 1900s. Now, it's held in a state of arrested decay - a total time warp, with beer bottles still on the bar, sums on the school chalkboard, and clothes hanging in the bedrooms - and a lot of very wonky wooden buildings! So immersive and fascinating to explore - definitely recommend a visit.
10 photos to sum up 25 miles, 7000ft elevation gain and 12 hours on our feet, hiking from Tenaya Lake to Clouds Rest to Half Dome - and back again. From enthusiasm and excitement, through to pain and exhaustion - and maybe a few tears! - but I'm so proud of us! Definitely a character building experience 😂 but no I wouldn't do it again!
4th July weekend doesn't mean much to me, except a 4 day weekend! Set off east to explore Mammoth Lakes (just east of Yosemite) and had some amazing hikes, views and food (thanks for the recs @kay.jay.d!). Fave hike: Little Lakes Trail to Gem Lakes Best dinner: @skadimammoth for Scandinavian dishes & aquavit shots with the chef (complete with Swedish drinking songs 🙈) Decent coffee: @blackvelvetcoffee (third wave coffee even in a small town 🎉)
Views from the top of Howell Mountain at @cadeestate yesterday. Another @heathersandyhebert rec, and loved it of course - only a few more to go till I complete the New Architecture of Wine top 25 list!
Paso Robles yesterday. ~37°C. 11:00: @bookervineyard - so beautiful. Note to self: Go for lunch next time - food menu looked incredible. 12:30: @ninerwineestates, tasting & lunching amidst the tanks. 14:00: @lawestatewines - those views, that architecture - but mind the rattlesnakes! What a day 🥰🍇

Hey – Hi – Hello!

I'm Nina, a Brit living in San Francisco.

I'm a travel addict, and an extreme planner - so every trip I go on is extensively researched, with a strong tendency towards beautiful design, quality coffee and experiential restaurants.

Here, I'm sharing all that research and planning with you - this is my curated collection of design-led hotspots; the hidden gems that you won't find in any old guide book.

Enjoy :)
