USA Trip 2016 - San Francisco



28 March - 4 April 2016


When anyone asks me where my favourite spot in the USA is I always say
San Francisco and I'm not 100% sure why but I keep saying it...
It made me feel something, a sort of happiness
as if I had found what it was I was searching for out there.
I couldn't get enough of it's overwhelming beauty and fresh coastal air.
It is at the top of my list to return to.

"One day if I go to heaven, I'll look around and say,
"It ain't bad, but it ain't San Francisco." - Herb Caen
