In Disneyland
In Disneyland

1. Disneyland Of Course!It doesn’t really matter how old you are, who doesn’t love Disneyland?! So when I was invited to attend a special behind-the-scenes tour and watch two of my favourite broadway musicals in NYC – Aladdin and The Lion King I was on a plane faster than you could say abracadabra! This trip even included 3 days at a convention called D23 for Disney geeks around the world. Of course I’m a loud and proud Disney fan myself which is why I convinced Nowshad to make a detour from San Francisco on another trip just so we could visit Toon Town. Probably the happiest place on earth!

2. The PCH

Check out the zebras...

The Pacific Coast Highway between San Francisco and Los Angeles is the most scenic drive you can possibly imagine. You’ll even witness zebras grazing and seals sun bathing! And if you LOVE aquariums like me you’ll trust me and take the minor detour to visit the Monterey Bay Aquarium where you’ll discover that sea horses fall in love and mate for love. Awww!

3. New York, New York

It was yummy!
It was yummy!

Ok there is really no way to capture everything I LOVE about New York in a few sentences so I’ll just say this: broadway musicals, The East Village, Brooklyn and SHAKE SHACK! Not to forget, WesternUnion.com always came to my rescue whenever I had money-related issues in the US. Yay.

4. Sunny San Francisco.

I love pink
I love pink

I can’t get over how beautiful everything is in San Francisco. Fresh air, sunshine, happy people and giant trees with pink flowers on them! (Ok, next stop Japan for those cherry blossoms). My brother lived in Mill Valley a suburb of SF for many years so I have incredibly fond memories of it all. Can’t wait to go back! Best place to road trip ever!

5. A Los Angeles Sunset

So if you love Bollywood as much as I do, chances are Hollywood isn’t going to be far behind!I had a wonderful trip and have to say The Sunset Marquis hotel stole my heart, just like Priyanka Chopra said it would. 🙂 Oh and I’ll never forget getting to watch K’Naan in the flesh at a cool little dive bar too. #Trippy
