I just got back and, in the interest of sharing, I thought I’d compile a list of some of my most memorable experiences.

All of which I’d highly recommend you try.

1. Engage in intense eye contact with Pierce Brosnan. Some might call it staring. I prefer to call it “sharing a moment”. (As for whether he was thinking “My god, that woman is stunning.” Or “My god, why is that woman wearing an old Canucks t-shirt and maple leaf mittens?” we’ll never know for sure.) [Photo found here.]

2. Attend a Canucks/Kings game with Posh and Becks. Even if “with” really means “sitting across the arena from.”

3. Shop like a local. [Photo found here.]

4. Get offered a fake rolex and a real live bunny rabbit on Venice Beach. [Photo found here.]

5. Have lunch at Gjelina. Just don’t try to ask for any modifications. They won’t even take the bacon out of your BLT. [Photo found here.]

6. Stroll through galleries and vintage shops on Abbot Kinney and imagine you’re furnishing your $4m Abbot Kinney apartment. [Photo found here.]

7. Eat at Pizzeria Mozza. Remember that pizza scene in Eat Pray Love? I’m willing to bet this pizza is better (especially if you try the one with stracchino, artichokes, lemon and olives). [Photo found here.]

8. See Miike Snow at Club Nokia. Actually it doesn’t matter where you see them. They’d be amazing in a parking lot. [Photo found here.]
Oh, Los Angeles, I miss you already. I’ll be back real soon, I promise.
P.S. The Anthology likes you a lot. You should like it too.
