🦞 Bites, Bands & Breweries: 2 Days in Boston, MA 🎶🍕

 




We took a quick 2-day trip to Boston, and it was the perfect blend of history, flavor, and live music. With sunny skies and good vibes, here’s how it all went down:

Day 1: Historic Eats & Downtown Energy

We spent the day in Downtown Boston exploring High Street Place—a stylish food hall buzzing with energy. We sipped coffee while watching high school bands perform live, which added a surprisingly fun and wholesome touch to the day.

For lunch, we headed to the Union Oyster House, the oldest continuously operating restaurant in the U.S. (since 1826!). The old-school atmosphere, historic wood-paneled walls, and of course the oysters made it a standout moment.

Later, we grabbed an early dinner at Regina Pizzeria, a North End icon that lives up to the hype. Crispy, cheesy, and cooked in brick ovens—this is what pizza dreams are made of.

Day 2: Island Flavor & Local Brews

For lunch, we mixed it up with something different—Flames Jamaican Restaurant. Their patty bread with cheese (basically a Jamaican patty sandwich) was unlike anything we’ve had. Flaky, spicy, and rich with cheesy goodness—definitely a must-try.

The highlight of the afternoon was our Sam Adams Brewery Tour. We learned about the brewing process, tried some exclusive small-batch brews, and soaked in that laid-back Boston beer culture.

We ended the night just the way we love to—listening to live music from a local band with a side of bar bites and brews. No rush, just vibes.

🎯 Quick Travel Tips:

  • Union Oyster House is a must for foodies and history buffs alike.

  • High Street Place is great for groups—so many options in one stylish spot.

  • Sam Adams Brewery offers free tours (with beer samples!) and live music on select days.

  • If you're exploring Boston without a car, public transportation will get you everywhere you need to go.

✈️ London on Miles: A 4-Day Holiday Adventure You’ll Want to Copy There’s something magical about London in December — twinkling lights, Christmas markets, chilly hands wrapped around overpriced cocoa, and history on every corner. I spent 4 unforgettable days exploring the city with my camera, my curiosity, and a suitcase full of sweaters — and guess what? I only used 48,000 Marriott points for the hotel. If you're dreaming of a holiday escape without the luxury price tag, buckle up. This one's for you. 🛬 Day 1: Arrival, Jet Lag & Local Pints After a long overnight flight (with a Lisbon layover!), we arrived in London and headed to Moxy Hotel LHR via Uber (€44.38). Thanks to early check-in , we got a few glorious hours of rest. Later, we wandered out, grabbed dinner, and found ourselves in a charming nearby pub where 4 beers cost us €42.17 — and were worth every drop. 🌉 Day 2: Glass Floors & Holiday Feels After a delicious free hotel breakfast, we hoppe...

 We just got back from a quick but unforgettable 3-day trip to Seattle , and I couldn’t wait to share the highlights! From sipping ginger beer at Pike Place to exploring a Bavarian village in the mountains, this trip was packed with flavor, views, and plenty of local brews. Day 1: Pike Place Market & City Vibes We kicked things off at the iconic Pike Place Market . The energy, the colors, the fresh seafood—there’s nothing like it. We grabbed lunch at Emmett Watson’s Oyster Bar , a cozy, no-frills spot tucked into the market. The oysters were fresh, the chowder was rich, and the atmosphere was classic Seattle. We stopped for coffee at the Original Starbucks , which was surreal and surprisingly worth the wait.
