A Little House in the Hills

There's something special about finding a unique home away from home that helps you feel connected to the city you're visiting. This was the case after staying in a little house in the hills above Los Angeles, California on a return trip earlier this year.

Los Angeles AirbnbWith the house surrounded by lush vegetation and built into the hillside, there were long staircases in the front and back that connected it to the streets. At night you could see the distant lights across the hills and it felt especially secluded despite only being a half hour drive from the heart of downtown LA. It was exactly the kind of place you wanted to escape to and hangout after a long day of travel shoots, navigating, and spur of the moment detours.

All the Way From Memphis

From the food to the music, Memphis is one of those distinct American cities that has a flavor all its own. Whether you're sampling 45s at Sun Studio, hanging out in the Jungle Room inside Graceland, memorializing the legacy of MLK at the Lorraine, or soaking up the neon on Beale Street - you can't visit Memphis, Tennessee without it leaving a lasting impression.
