San Francisco
While traveling to the US for work, I decided to spend a couple of days exploring San Francisco as I had never been before. After 2 days of seeing the city, I got the train down to Menlo Park to check out Silicon Valley. Axiom Trying to find a hotel in SF was a bit … Continue reading San Francisco
