re: Lisbon - where to eat and stay
Posted by Bearded_Chow25 on 1/26/24 at 9:08 pm
Tasca Pete - tiny restaurant with fantastic food and wine. Feels like you’re hanging out at a friend’s place.
Lupita for pizza - one of the better pizzas I’ve had in a long time.
Breakfast - Breakfast Lovers hits the spot
Go catch the sunset at Castelo de S. Jorge and grab a beer. ...

re: Flight Booked for Europe this Summer

When you get burnt out of pintxos, go to Gerald's bar for dinner. Best meal I had during my stay in San Sebastian. Also have a few drinks then mosey on up to the top point of Old Town for sunset .
Check out Biarritz while in France. IMO much more to do and see than SJL. I'd recommend staying here...

Appreciate all the recs and comments.
Sounds like the North Coast regions of Spain are the spots. Big fan of beach towns and appreciate the greener locations with outdoor options. I've only heard awesome things about San Sebastian and the surrounding areas, so will zone in on those.
Will prob ...

I've lived in San Francisco the last 3+ years.
Have to bite my tongue around co-workers and all the BS company internal social / D&I initiatives. One big ole echo chamber. But hey I got Juneteenth off as a holiday and played golf. ...

re: Bolinas, CA
Posted by Bearded_Chow25 on 8/21/19 at 11:30 pm
Live in SF and spent a weekend there a few weeks ago. Great spot, but I imagine you'd be bored spending any more than 2 nights there.
As mentioned, Stinson, Muir beach/woods, and Point Reyes are all great and close. Maybe make Bolinas home base and do a day trip or two....

Just spent 3 nights in Marrakech and 1 night glamping an hour outside of the city.
Stayed in a Riad in the Medina (old city). Markets are cool and never ending. Everyone is trying to make a buck off you so be prepared to say no firmly, especially when people offer directions and "show you the ...

I'm planning on taking the full week off of work before Labor Day and travel internationally but having a hard time coming up with a good destination for late August. I would have ~9 days to travel.
Initial thoughts were SE Asia or some islands in the Carribean but I'm concerned with the wet/hurr...

Relocating to Miami for work
Posted by Bearded_Chow25 on 3/17/17 at 11:01 am
Anyone ever live in Miami? What are your thoughts?
There are a bunch of open roles in my company in Miami. I am considering applying for roles and possibly moving there if it works out. I've been to Miami once for a quick weekend trip but I got a skewed view of the city. I feel like I didn't ...
