Today I went to LA and basically speed-ran the “is this real life?” checklist. This is part 1 of my little LA era where I got to experience a red carpet moment (still processing), did the obligatory tourist things like the Walk of Fame, and then immediately pivoted into my favorite genre of travel content: me being excited, overstimulated, and slightly unwell in the most cinematic way possible. I also tried Erewhon because obviously I had to—if I’m in Los Angeles, I’m not leaving without at least one overpriced little treat and a full opinion. Then I ended up at the Santa Monica Pier where it got weirdly existential (as it always does when there’s ocean air and too much time to think), and to top it all off I impulsively got a tattoo…because why not make a permanent decision while I’m in a temporary mood. If you want a college-life-style travel vlog that’s equal parts fun, chaotic, and “wait, what am I doing with my life,” this is that.
