Tips for Going to The Galapagos Islands

by Alyssa Ramos Flying over the beginning flecks of islands amongst the clear blue ocean, darkened and lightened with depth, I was reminded of images I’ve seen in my undergrad ecology class textbooks. Darwin’s famed Galapagos Islands, whose contribution to evolutionary advances seemed almost mythical when studied in college, was now about to be a real...

Villa Blanca, Beverly Hills

by Alyssa Ramos Villa Blanca is as prestigious, classy, and tasteful as the famed Beverly Hills roads it resides on. You may have caught a glimpse of it on The Real Housewives of Beverly Hills since it’s owned by Real Housewife vixen Lisa Vanderpump and her adorably witty husband Ken Todd, but seeing it on screen merely does the place the justice it deserves...

Vinoteque on Melrose

by Alyssa Ramos   Unless you’re a Melrose neighborhood local, or an extremely keen eyed pedestrian, chances are you haven’t heard of Vinoteque on Melrose. I myself found this fabulously quaint wine restaurant while walking my dog who pulled me into the narrow alleyway lined with “love locks” that leads into a charismatic patio surrounded...

Mari Vanna – A Piece of Russia in West Hollywood

  By Alyssa Ramos   Nestled in the trendy little triangular nook that is the real-life Melrose Place, is an ornately decorated and heavily vodka-infused piece of Russia called Mari Vanna.

This may shock and disappoint you but she was actually very calm and collected. By Alyssa Ramos Like everyone else on the planet, minus the supa freaks, extremists, and people who like things purposely because everyone else doesn’t, I too was appalled and even a little upset when the seemingly sweet and innocent Miley Cyrus hacked off her pretty Hannah Montana...

1OAK Los Angeles Soft Opening – Bieber, We Meet At Last.

Plus how to look famous using Uber. by Alyssa Ramos I won’t go on my normal rant about how much I hate going to nightclubs in order to avert stereotypical opinions about myself and girls in LA (even though most are true about the latter) , so I’ll just begin with: I will go to soft and grand openings of new clubs because I know everyone who’s...

I Love the London and I Love LA.

Just wanted to throw out a quick mini blog while I blog. by Alyssa Ramos Thanks to global warming or whatever else I’m supposed to blame this beautiful 80 degree weather in LA in January on, today was decided to be Work By The Pool Day (by me). Usually these days take place every day during the summer time, but I guess since the weather is drunk and thinks...

Leonardo DiCaprio’s Table? Sure, Why Not. – DBA Hollywood

I might get black listed for this. By Alyssa Ramos Despite what a large majority of people may think, I do not like going to nightclubs. I’m like the oldest 25 year old in the world, and would much rather go to charity event and be in bed by 12 than set foot in the coolest nightclub in the world. Well, maybe not in the world, because if it were in another...
