Here's my list of things to do in the first 6 months to start feeling like a local. Collaborators welcome! PM me.

California, United States

At 6,435 kilometers, Chile is as long a country as they come. I managed to see a good piece of it over the four months I lived there. These are my favorite places. Donate what you can! The people of Chile, especially Concepción, need our help.

Chile

Slow down for a second and try these relaxing activities in SF.

San Francisco, California, United States

Street food is so hot right now in the Mission. First it was the magic curry kart, and then it pretty much exploded. If you catch them on Friday nights, you can try a bunch of these at once. Otherwise, go on a scavenger hunt to find them... Update: These guys aren't sticking to just the Mission anymore. I added their twitter accounts (if they have them) so you can find them better!

San Francisco, California, United States

Places to see and stay, and things to eat in Morocco. My number 1 piece of advice--don't do too much too fast! We saw a lot but rested very little.

Morocco, Africa

We Vermonters love to rag on French Canadians, but we all secretly know that Montréal is pretty awesome.

Quebec, Canada

If you're heading up to Vermont and New Hampshire for a little skiing or a summer trip, there's great food just off the Interstate. This guide is approximately south-to-north and has spots on both 89 and 91.

United States

Traveling can be really bad for the planet, but if you're careful, you can have the adventure of a lifetime without the impact. Here are a few of my favorite places to travel green.

The World

Go ahead--take all your vacation time in the form of three day weekends. and pick one of these places to spend it.

California, United States

Sac takes a lot of heat for being, you know... boring, hot, suburban, trashy, and generally the opposite of its cultured cousin San Francisco. Well, I've spent a lot of weekends in the capital and it's really not so bad. So when you can't stand the foggy, frigid coast for another second, head on out to Sactown and try some of these spots.
