Apparently "Hella" is the new school cool

Whats up my peeps that be hella chill
I wish you were chillen
up on my window sill... 

Hanging out
Groovin' out in the sun
Cause you being around
makes life hella fun!

ATTN: SITE READERS! PLACES TO BE AND SEE AND.... PEE?

Upchuck: Albany Bulb



Deconstructed construction 
has been living here
Reconstructed again 
by people with cheer.

Exists for those struggling
with existence themselves,

No worries, no fears
only art full of vision
Come see for yourself
then make your decision. 

I guarantee a good time
and adventure for all
and you know the best part?
You don't spend a dime!







Albany Bulb is located just outside of Berkeley in Albany, located in the East Bay. Definitely worth a visit when in the area, and my advice? Find Mad Mark's Castle, they knew the spot. For more pictures check out my facebook!

UPCHUCK! Indian Rock by DAY HAAAAAYYYYYYY


For those of you who are slackers and missed my first post regarding Indian Rock you can find that here. For those already in the know here are some pictures of Indian Rock by day. Great place to come and have a picnic while taking in the beauty of the surrounding Bay. Also lots of fun to come and watch those who boulder and rock climb!

Magical, Mystical, Surreal for sure...
Steps carved right in
but without a door

Anxious Ascent 
and then you can see
the Bay by day in all its glory!








Telegraph but mainly CREAM

Why hello! my inquisitive viewers! Hope your day wherever you are has been enjoyable :)

I'm here to bring you updated info on my journey of a lifetime through Berkeley CA and the entire BAY area. 

Today's agenda:

Telegraph Avenue 

is an awesome place to spend the day. Street vendors are plentiful from hand made silver jewelry to patches, henna, tie-dye and the like! It's all very exciting. Not to mention you can head to MARS... not the planet your probably thinking of but the perfect planet for die-hard vintage lovers. And the best thing about MARS? Thrift store prices! -- Okay so not completely "thrift" store prices but definitely excellent prices for almost pristine condition vintage clothing. (Hell yeah my clothing junkies I know you be appreciating that) 

There's also great bookstores that buy, sell and trade books of all sorts such as Shakespeare Bookstore. I have been to all the head shops on Tele and I definitely recommend Big Al's (boss) they have got great locally blown creative and artistic pieces. 

For the music lovers there's Rasputin a music store selling new and used CDs and DVDs at great prices. Not just your run of the mill stuff either. Great rare rock and roll versions can be found for the likes of the Rolling Stones, Hendrix, Beatles etc. This place is truly a music lovers paradise. If you're making a special trip in, call the store, sometimes on occasion live performances take place on the 2nd (loft) floor. Raleigh's across and down the street is a great local bar with its own beer and a young college atmosphere. Visit here on your 21st birthday but be prepared to chug your pint of free Guinness ON the bar. 

There's so much funky fun to unravel on this road but one of my favorites since arriving in the Bay Area is CREAM Ice Cream Shop standing for Cookies Rule Everything Around Me. Here you can find fresh baked perfectly soft cookies and eccentric ice cream! Just 2$ for an ice cream cookie sandwich, AND bonus: you can pick different types of cookies YUM! My personal favorite? Cinnamon Caramel ice cream between 2 butter sugar cookies OOOOOH WEEEEEE !!


Oh and for those NY fans... there's a Chipotle too!

Pleasant day to you! Check back soon :)
