Blogger Guides are a collection of interviews from top bloggers in different countries who I contacted via Twitter to help give me local/insider insight on things to do and see in each country I visit rather than only researching the area on the Internet. Bloggers know their cities inside and out, not just as residents, but as dedicated researchers and writers about...
by Alyssa Ramos I am definitely one of those people. One of those people who are constantly bombarding your newsfeeds with photos by the pool or in random travels. One of those people who no one is really quite sure of how they manage to be all of those places because it seems like they never work, and would never have the money to do any of it, unless someone else...
by Alyssa Ramos What you do for the Fourth of July typically depends on your relationship status. If you are in one, you’re probably watching fireworks at the beach with your bae (new word I learned from teens at Vidcon that means “before anyone else”). If you aren’t, you’re probably drinking your face off in celebration of #MERICA, f*k...
by Alyssa Ramos If you are even asking yourself what VidCon is, you are already in last place in the digital marketing race. Why should you care? Eh, only because if you or your company doesn’t keep up with it, you’re destined to fail. Oh, but you use social media? You have 10k likes on your Facebook page? That’s nice. You probably bought them and...
by Alyssa Ramos It has occurred to me that a large majority of my friends aged 25-35 have babies thanks to the constant stream of them on my Facebook newsfeed, so I wondered what one would get a millennial for Father’s Day? Technology and short attention spans dominate our lives so definitely not a tie, maybe something sports related? Coupons for not having to...
by Alyssa Ramos One of the many, many, things that I love about living in LA is how many different areas there are. If you get sick of the hustle and bustle of Hollywood, you can take an easy 30 minute drive out to the beach (even though it’s only 10 miles away) for a change of scenery. It’s an especially nice treat for us when we do make it out there...
by Alyssa Ramos Some of the many perks of being in PR is that you get to attend great events, meet tons of amazing people, and go home with some awesome gift bag swag. Last night’s Glenlevit private whiskey tasting event put on by Stadiumred at Scarpetta was definitely one I didn’t want to miss. Especially because it included a whiskey guide to explain...
by Alyssa Ramos The feeling of prestige and exclusivity you get when you walk into any Soho House was perfectly replicated at the pop-up Soho Desert House at a private estate in La Quinta during Coachella last weekend for the second year in a row. Sponsored by Bacardi, the House offered members and invited guests everything they could possibly need to relax and...
by Alyssa Ramos When they opened the doors to the shuttle that took us to the secret, private estate where the Bootsy Bellows party was being held, it was like a rowdy bunch of 20-something year old Kindergarteners, eager to get out to recess in the best adult playground in the world. It literally looked like a party scene from The Great Gatsby except the fashion was...
by Alyssa Ramos Upon entering the back lot of CBS Studios, I realized that it probably would have been a good idea to Google this year’s Dancing With the Stars cast. The competitors were all walking around in their outfits with full hair and makeup, so I could obviously tell who was dancing and who wasn’t, so when I was introduced I just acted really...
