Every time I visit California, I fall more in love with it. This trip especially has been not only memorable but strangely emotional. Something about San Francisco tugged at my heart strings. But I guess that’s why the song goes “I left my heart in San Francisco”. 

So here are my postcards from San Francisco. I wish I took more photos but halfway through the trip, I stopped wanting to pull out my camera and just wanted to enjoy the company of the people around me. But can you blame me?

It was absolutely FRIGID outside as there was actually a snowstorm the next day. But that makes me even more appreciative of being outdoors on sunday, especially be able to explore the beautiful Whytecliff Park.

Whytecliff park is this beautiful little beach that has a walkway that leads to a separate little island rock figure. When you climb to the other side of the island (and yes, it’s a CLIMB) you get an unrestricted view of the water and it’s absolutely breath-taking. Fun fact: the land bridge that leads to the island gets swallowed up when the tides are high so make sure you head back to the beach before that happens! Or be prepared to spend the night on a little rocky island. Up to you.

It was a really nice little escape from the stress of school and work. It probably wasn’t the smartest life decision as I had two finals the next day (oops!) but I’m still super glad I went.

This school semester is finally coming to an end and I’m looking forward to many more adventures this winter. Hopefully I’ll be able to visit the Christmas market soon! 

Until next time,
