La Staycation Spots I'm Dreaming Of

As you may know, I am in full on study mode right now preparing for my licensing exam. Is it just me or does studying make people more creative? I find that when I am bored or forced to pay attention to something of little interest my mind tends to wonder into all sorts of arenas, most of which tend to involve a pool and a margarita. While studying at home has been cozy with all this LA rain and cool-ish temps, I can’t help thinking I would be better off changing up the location, perhaps I’d understand clinical theories more over a vanilla latte and some hash browns in a fluffy robe in the basement of the Beverly Hills Hotel. Just saying. All of the staycations I have done in Los Angeles including The Beverly Hills Hotel, The SLS, and The Luxe Sunset, have all been very refreshing and worth it to me to explore a new area or just get the same feeling of traveling without having to actually travel. It’s a great thing to do with friends or a significant other, someone please propose something now before I go crazy! Enjoy.
