Yeah, so, although I really couldn’t afford it, a few weeks ago I spent every last penny (actually, not true, I had $6.87 left in my bank account) on a new Airstream Argosy. It’s exactly like my last one, which was stolen a year ago… with no insurance… yeah, it sucked. I seriously haven’t been the same since! So I couldn’t resist and against all logic, I bought another one. This weekend I took it camping in the Poconos to Jim Thorpe, and I just need to reiterate how awesome it is up there. Here’s an article I wrote about Jim Thorpe last year. Just thought I’d bring it out of the archives:

Day-Trippin’ > Get away for the day to JIM THORPE

JIM THORPE

JIM THORPE is a spot I came across on my road trip and I’ve been back 4 times since! It’s a cute little main street in the middle of gorgeous, tree-covered mountains. It’s impossible not to feel refreshed and happy after spending some time here. This weekend is a great time to visit – it’s the Fall Foliage Festival all day on Saturday & Sunday. The views of Autumn leaves are breath-taking. Here are a few spots you should definitely visit… (more…)

Meet Rachel Guzman, a lil fox who’s enjoying summer in Sea Isle City with her friends. I asked her for her favorite shore spots:

“Summertime and the livings easy…”

Let’s face it, nothing’s better then summertime. Between Phillies games, outdoor concerts (Pearl Jam, Jack Johnson & Journey, just to name a few) and cocktailing outside with friends, you could fill up your lazy day’s right there. However, the main reason that summer is the best thing that happens to me all year is lying on the beach all day and partying in flip flops all night. Here are my Top Five spots that can all be found on my favorite little island called Sea Isle.

5. La Costa – Located on the corner of 40th and Landis this place is great not only for its location but also because it’s a hotel, bar, restaurant and liquor store all in one! With both an indoor and outdoor bar, there’s a different drink special every night and they feature many different bands all summer long. My most favorite thing about this place is that their liquor store delivers and it’s free! I know there is a lazy person inside all of us that thinks that is just awesome. (more…)

Last year I had the privilege of hosting Diga Brazil’s trip to Salvador, Brazil for their summer music fest and I got to see Rich Medina spin in Brazil! Sooo awesome! This year they’re doing it again, and this time Julie Dexter, Janeiro Jarel, Mausiki Scales, Sol Messiah & Salah Sananse are joining the line-up. These trips have a tour group feel with a group of cool peeps from Philly and you stay in your own huge condos instead of hotels. Get a group together and have a house to yourself or make some new friends… CLICK HERE to see my photos from last year. Visit www.digabrazil.com for more info on the trip.
