I just got back from another amazing trip to Boston. I stayed a few days more this time and did all the touristy things including a trip to Mike's Pastry. First time I saw it was at Harvard Square. It was a nice looking shop with some patrons. It caught my eye as I was… Continue reading Where Its Name Precedes It

As the curtain closes…
Ok, time to take a bow. One final post on my epic adventure just to sum it up and give it a closure (like we need for most things like relationships long gone). If you had read my earlier posts, you can tell that it has been an amazing trip for me, way better than… Continue reading As the curtain closes…
Boston, MA
2/20/15 - 2/23/15 Destination: Boston. This was the 'final' stop of my coast to coast. I had missed the crazy arctic storm that hit this city 2 weekends ago. Sky was clear and beautiful (chilling nonetheless at about 16 degrees). One thing that struck me was how very much like London the city was. They… Continue reading Boston, MA
Washington, DC
2/17/15 - 2/18/15 The first thing I noticed when I got to Washington DC was how awfully quiet the city was. It was only 4pm on a work day but it seemed strangely devoid of activity downtown. Even the Starbucks was closed. My first thought was how early people get off work. It was not… Continue reading Washington, DC
Charleston, SC
2/15/15 - 2/16/15 Charleston was a surprise hit. I went there not knowing what to expect and it turned out to be everything and more. Of course a big part of it was thanks to Steve, Sara and Jeremy. Driving into town felt like I was transported back in time to the colonial days. A… Continue reading Charleston, SC
Nashville, TN
2/13/15 - 2/14/15 Stopped by a Toyota dealer for my 10k-miles maintenance. I love how maintenance is free and I can do it at any Toyota dealership nationwide. Driving to Nashville was super exciting for me. One month ago, I got hooked on the TV show that shares the same name as the city. If… Continue reading Nashville, TN
Memphis, TN
2/11/15 - 2/12/15 Rolling into Memphis, I cannot help having the song "Memphis, Tennessee" (Elvis cover of course) play repeatedly in my head. First stop (thanks to Tiffany's recommendation) is Graceland. A good thing I visited at an unpopular time of the year so I didn't have to deal with crowds. I really wished my mom… Continue reading Memphis, TN
Springfield, MO
2/9/15 - 2/10/15 It was a Monday and before I took off on this trip, I had an agreement with the boss to do some work on Monday mornings. Since I was supposed to meet Ann in Springfield in the evening, I decided to just find a Starbucks along the way to work. To get… Continue reading Springfield, MO
Austin, TX
2/6/15 - 2/8/15 Started my drive from Wilcox, AZ all the way to Austin, TX...a good 810 miles. I had to make it there by the night as I was supposed to pick up my dear friend, Ann-Marie. A few things I learnt about myself from the rookie mistakes I made that day: My daily… Continue reading Austin, TX
