I grew up in Hawaii but always loved visiting the “mainland” – in particular the East and West Coasts, since being near the water reminded me most of home. Someday I’d love to visit the Bourbon Trail in Kentucky, to try a Sazerac in New Orleans, or to drive cross country.

Until then, here are my city guides for a few of my favorites on the coasts:
