What is @priceless in your city? #la #lovethiscity #cbias

Posted by on December 30, 2012

City Skyline of LALA (Los Angeles,) the city of dreams.  It’s so funny, being from Minnesota we had this image in our heads of LA.  That’s where all the writers, actors, actresses, and models went to.

So, you can imagine that I never dreamed of being here, but when that day came, and I told friends and family, they all looked at me, like really?  Lots of them put wagers on when I’d be back in Minnesota again.

What I wasn’t prepared for was how fast and easy it was to fall in love with this city #lovethiscity.  And how there is truly something for everyone in this city.  Whether you’re a movie fanatic, or a person who loves the arts, or are one of those foodies or even the sports (LA Dodgers, LA Lakers, LA Clippers, and the LA Kings) there really is something for everyone.

For those of you that love the arts, there are beautiful art galleries found throughout the entire city of LA.  There are also amazing theaters from the Long Beach Performing Arts Center to the Music Center that plays host to the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion to the Mark Taper Forum to the Ahmanson Theatre.  And even small town playhouses like the Santa Monica Playhouse, the Pasadena Playhouse and others found all throughout the town.

And for those basketball fanatics, there lies the LA Lakers and the LA Clippers.  And there are huge hockey fans all throughout this town.  Who won the Stanley Cup last year other than the LA Kings.

And not to mention, a destination getaway for those that travel, a place to come for the beautiful sunshine and to be near the ocean blue.
