We Need A Festival of Lights Everywhere and mostly in San Francisco

Feeling the need for visual therapy this morning, after scrolling through article after article about the Paris attacks and what we should and shouldn’t do. The idea of it all mentally draining, when thinking about it in dept.

Usually around this time of the year I stop searching online for all things travel. No wait, let me clarify. I am usually on a plane on a three-week vacation somewhere.
