My 2024 San Francisco Favorites!

This year marked my second full year living in the beautiful city of San Francisco. I’m truly in awe of how much I love this city and how quickly it felt like home to me. Being from the East Coast and moving on a whim (should I share the crazy story of us moving in 6 days?!), I wasn’t sure how long my time living here would be—originally thinking it wouldn’t be longer than a year, maybe two MAX.

Two years later, I can’t envision myself living anywhere else (at least for now!). As cheesy as it may sound, I genuinely wake up every morning pinching myself that I live in California and have somehow built the most amazing life from scratch out here. I have go-to restaurants where the staff/owners feel like family, have met new friends who feel like lifelong support systems, and have created the most energizing and refreshing routines that somehow make every week feel exciting and new!

With that said, it’d be CRIMINAL of me not to share some of my favorite places, things, bites, and sips that made 2024 feel so special. I can’t wait to share more in 2025 and please do let me know if you try or also love any of the below! I’d love to chat about them <3

Without further ado…MY 2024 FAVORITES!
