Travel Guide: 3 Days in Los Angeles, Los Angeles, California (B)

Headed to California in the future? I traveled to Los Angeles recently for the holidays and found some great spots to add to your travel list.

I used a combination of recommendations from locals, Instagrammers, and reviews I found via Google searches to determine where to go. Here’s my 72-hour La-La Land itinerary!

I mapped out our day by planning activities up and down the PCH (Pacific Coast Highway) in Malibu. This was Karl’s first trip to California, and I wanted him to experience the scenic mountain and beach views that made me fall in love with SoCal.
