EL CHORRO STREET

After doing some research on the street we are staying on in San Miguel de Allende, I came across this awesome blog post!

beautiful little curvy street named
El Chorro.

I am leaving this right here, because it also is my
To-Do-List Reference.

Make It Happen

This is so wiiild!
I'm going to Mexico in November.
San Miguel de Allende 
to be exact.
 I have never been to Mexico.
Its been on my to-do-list
for decades.
I refuse to do a Resort experience, its just not my style.
A group of us are going and one person is from Guanajato.
Which means....
We have a local to show us around and who can speak the language!!
We are staying in a mansion, blocks away from Parroquia de San Miguel Arcangel.
Its amazing how cheap it is to stay in a plush home, with a maid in Mexico. 
Awesome right!??
This "idea" has been in the works since last October.  I didnt think I could afford it since I'm going to Japan in May.
But after a long deliberation, and writing down financial goals, I realized this is not impossible!
So BAM!
Shit's taking off,
and this is slowly becoming a reality.
By the end of this month I'll have my plane ticket.

I really need to check out this church with all its Baroque Murals.
And of course I gotta check out, The Museum of Mummies.
Now that this is set in stone, I'll start my research and see what else I can add to my Must-See-List.
Life is good.
Everyday I am appreciative and inspired.
My dream has always been to see the world.
This is just the start.
Thank You
-2018-
for allowing me to see the magic,
and to know it
can be
mine.

Morgiana

Watched this on Sunday.
Whomever did costume design, killed it!
There were no subtitles, but it was eye candy all the way through, so that was cool.

Soft Kill

Finally saw Soft Kill last Tuesday!!
Fuuuck!! 
What a killer show.
The whole set was impressive, but I was more than happy when they closed the show with 
"Whirl" 
All the footage I took was so shitty, it was super dark and loud in there.  My phone just didnt Cut It.  Besides that, Rad Show! Rad Time! Rad Venue
The venue was at the Starline Social Club in Oakland.
This was my first time seeing a show here. 
You walk in and its this cute loungy, restaurant/bar. They have a mini stage and there was an acoustic band playing. After walking through
towards the back there is a wide art deco staircase that takes you to the top.  OMG! The second floor is so RAD! They little vintage booths, tall windows, a bar, a decent stage and restrooms. Real Neat location.
