brooklyn + life + on + pine _IMG_7126.jpg

back in october kyle had a conference in brooklyn for work. oren and i decided to tag along being that a. we needed to see elizabeth and charles, and b. there is nothing cozier than NY in october.

C A R R O L L G A R D E N S

prior to this visit i’d only spent a few hours or so in brooklyn –– drinks at the wythe hotel, brunch at five leaves, wandering williamsburg, etc. so this visit we wanted to really dig in and see what else this awesome city had to offer. we were overwhelmed with how much we loved it. the cozy streets filled with brownstones, delicious restaurants that were very oren-friendly, beautiful parks, fun bars, and all around great energy.

our airbnb was nestled on a quiet street which was perfect with a baby. we kept him on california time which meant a 10pm bed time, and therefore lots of fun dinners out with mom & dad.

red hook

  • to do: take a ferry to the city which is a really fun experience 

  • fort defiance very cozy cafe/bar for brunch on the main street in red hook

  • red hook lobster pound legit lobster rolls

  • defonte's OG Brooklyn Italian sandwich shop since the 1920s

carroll gardens

  • frankie's fun vibe + music, great italian food, and interesting wines/cocktails

  • lucali cult following pizza and calzone dinner restaurant. BYOB and typically need a resy. what a place to experience!

  • black mountain wine house the coziest wine bar with legit food

  • mazzola bakery morning pastries and breads

  • hungry ghost delicious coffee and austin shipped breakfast tacos!

  • public records beautiful space – come for morning coffee and a bite or evening cocktails and live music. hidden neighborhood gem

  • mile end deli **montreal style bagels

fort greene

  • walter's famous brunch spot on cute corner

  • colonia verde latin for lunch or dinner with amazing food and a huge back patio

  • miss ada israeli dinner place – very buzzy and will need a reservation

  • rhodora wine bar might be the cutest wine bar I've ever been to – delicious tapas and the kind of place you want to spend the transition from afternoon to evening

park slope / prospect park

  • prospect park (aka brooklyn's central park) – massive and fun to stroll + relax. complete with a full zoo and carousel too. check out what's playing at the prospect park bandshell, they do a summer series of good and free concerts which is a ton of fun.

  • olmsted fun brunch scene with really good food. weather permitting, i highly recommend enjoying their back patio.

10 SF airbnbs to call home

SF is full of so many cool apartments to rent, this list is really just scratching the surface. With the price and location of most "cool" hotels in the city, renting a chic neighborhood apartment seems to be such a better way to really experience this city. Grabbing coffee at the local bakery, wandering the streets of a historic neighborhood, having a glass of wine at the corner cafe ... you stumble upon so many "non-touristy" spots this way. And if you book with this link, you'll get $20 off your first stay. Check out more SF to-do items on the travel guide.

72 hours in mexico city

Kate ParrishComment


i am so grateful for my little birthday surprise trip – mexico city was such a dream. i'm already trying to figure out when we can get back there. the food, the tequila, the fresh juices, the beautiful green parks. and so much dang culture. we could have easily spend another week here roaming the streets. 

my favorite spots from our first few days here include: our amazingly adorable airbnb, the best lunch (ever) at guzina oaxaca, late night drinks at jules basement, multiple patio sessions at condesa df, roaming lincoln park and finding the cutest little garden patio, *almost* getting tats at the cabalerria, exploring the mercado de medellin, and lastly sipping mezcal on our rooftop patio.

it's hard to believe our journey to south america is over – i'm so happy we were able to capture so much of our trip with photos and videos. soon i will have all of our favorite restaurants/bars/activities documented on the travel page. 

today i'm sharing our first 2 days in buenos aires – some highlights from this time include: our *absolutely amazing* airbnb rental apartment – the hosts and experience was one of the best i've ever had, exploring our neighborhood – palermo soho, riding bikes through the crazy streets, sneaking into the four seasons pool, drinking lots of malbec while eating lots of steak, touring ancient cemeteries and wandering into bookstores and wine shops, and of course kp popping the question on christmas eve. happy friday and there are many more photos to come.
