Travel Guide To San Francisco [Travel Video]
In this travel video guide to San Francisco, I travel to San Francisco, California, one of the most scenic cities in the United States, if not the world. In town for a conference for only four days, only one of which was going to be sunny, I headed out to see as much as I […]
You’ll Never Look At San Francisco The Same After Watching This
Having recently returned home from San Francisco, a city I hadn’t seen in about 10 years, I’m still trying to get over just how damn scenic that city is. It’s hard to compare any major city in the world in terms of pure spectacle one sees in almost every direction they look there (such as […]
Exploring The San Francisco Of “Vertigo”
Vertigo would have to be my favorite Hitchcock film that doesn’t involve crossdressers or nazis. Despite the film starring two Hollywood powerhouses at the times — Jimmy Stewart and Kim Novak — the real star of the flick is arguable the city it’s set in, San Francisco. Has any movie played so crucial a role […]
Visit These San Francisco Hot Spots For The Wanna-be Hipster In You
Everyone wants to be cool, but those hipsters got it all figured out. In fact, hipsters are what cool people call cool. On my recent jaunt to San Francisco, I tried to nail down the reasons why.

However, this also means both professions inevitable run into the […]
The Great Debate: NYC vs. SF

Seeing as the United States and Canada are such expansive countries, it’s a luxury to be able to judge those on the other side of the nation. In Canada, there is a quiet, yet pervasive, rivalry between Vancouver and Toronto […]
San Francisco Is Worth The Mission
There is nothing more rewarding than finding a city’s hidden gems, whether it is for food, coffee, or used books. I love stumbling across articles written by people who know these spots and just want to share them with the world. Today, an article in The Globe and Mail about the Mission District in San […]
The Expeditioner’s February Travel Photography Contest Winner
Wow. If you haven’t been to our flickr group yet, I suggest you head over there. We asked for great travel photography and you have answered in a big way. Unfortunately for us, it makes our job far tougher when the end of the month rolls around and we have to choose our favorite. That’s an […]
Kayak San Fran
Because everyone knows that walking around the city is just so pedestrian (rimshot) — eh, sorry, I’m ready for the holiday weekend. But seriously, what cooler way to explore the 470 square miles that make up the San Francisco Bay than on the actual water itself? The LA Times has this article on several companies […]
