What I Learned From Making YouTube Shorts for 30 Days in a Row
Last fall, I wrote about my experience making my very first YouTube Short. After crafting those initial few Shorts, I largely gave up on the format for whatever reason.

Do Allbirds Wool Runner Mizzles Make For a Go-To Travel Shoe?
As a semi-frequent traveler who looks to pack pretty light, I’m used to taking only one pair of shoes with me on any given trip. Thus, whatever shoes I’m taking with me need to not only be comfortable but also adapt to different situations — including the possibility of damp weather. That’s what attracted me...
How Did I Not Know About This Awesome Capital One Perk?
Earlier this month, I once again found myself in Las Vegas for CES. Each time this happens, I'm reminded of just how damn expensive The Strip has become. Seriously — $6 drip coffee, $9 cheese pizza slices, and a $14 cheese quesadilla that turns into a $23 quesadilla if you want to add a protein...
