October 12, 2016Filed in: Travel Planning by Mike Shubbuck

The Who performing at Desert Trip concert weekend one

The Coachella Valley can really take it’s toll on a person. During the first weekend of Desert Trip 2016, we witnessed plenty of unprepared concert-goers who did not realize the days would boil around 100ºF and the nights would drop into the low 60’s.

These apps will tell you whether to book your flight to Rome Read Post

Coachella Camping Hacks

March 12, 2014Filed in: Travel Planning by Mike Shubbuck
