My Second Favorite American City: San Francisco

For Easter Break this year, I travelled to NorCal to visit the same family I visited during Easter Break my sophomore year. The trip was a dream, as it consisted of some of my favorite things (cities, beaches, kids, Australians, rolling green hills/moutains, reunioning with dear friends, being a tourist, etc.).

I also met up with Andy, a good Georgetown friend now in grad school at Berkeley, and his girlfriend. The three of us went to a Jens Lekman concert Saturday night. I don't have photos from the evening, but here's a sample of Jens, one of my favorite Swedish artists.

All in all, I had a fabulous time and hopefully will be back soon.
