San Diego, California
San Diego is one of my favorite cities around the world. I was lucky to live and experience this city, not only once, but twice in my life. If I had it my way, I would live here and make it my permanent home. This city has so much to offer – it’s beach town with city life combined in one. Yet, a lot of people don’t know that this was where it all began. As the site of the first Spanish settlement in this part of United States, it has been called the Birthplace of California.

I didn’t know much of the history of San Diego, so it was neat learning it’s considered the birthplace of California!
I’m from San Diego and Old Town is one of my favorite parts! I’ve been to the Whaley House wayyy too many times haha.
I’ve been to San Diego twice with my family. I LOVE the place! We didn’t really get to see the Old Town, but perhaps in the future! I’m eager to go back. I’ve done a couple posts on my experiences there on my blog. Here’s a link to one if you’d like to see. http://outmyfrontdoorgirlslife.blogspot.com/2013/05/coronado-beachcalifornia-trip.html
Right now I’m writing about my recent visit to the Quad Cities in Illinois. Really old fashioned and fun!
LOVING your photography! Just absolutely stunning.
Ugh love. Im currently trying to make it my permanent home, as my family live there. I love Old Town, especially the margheritas!
