Meredith Music Festival

This week I'm excitedly packing for an adventure. This will be my first camping music festival in quite a while.  I had thought I had sworn them off never to attend ever again... what's changed my mind? I've only heard good things about Meredith Music Festival. I've been signed up for the last 5 years to get a ballot ticket and with a lot of magic pixie dust this year I got one!

As yet I'm suffering from sleepless nights in anticipation. So to get rid of some of my excess adrenaline I created this music mix to get the party started.

San Francisco Mission District

When I was in San Francisco I stayed in the lively and colourful Mission district.

The day we arrived our apartment was surrounded by a throbbing street party. Kids were riding bicycles down the middle of the street, bands and DJ's spinning, great food and smiling locals. I treated it as a sign that I was going to love this city.

Turns out I was staying in quite the trendy neighbourhood. In my research of Mission I knew that it was famous for it's eateries whilst brimming with colour and street art. I was literally around the corner from Balmy Alleyway known for it's religious murals painted onto local residents fences and roller doors. Definitely a fun part of town.
