California Dreaming
Planning a California trip, I stumbled upon this book and it felt like a treasure map, filled with hidden gems and local secrets. From charming towns to hidden hiking trails, it offered a glimpse into Santa Barbara beyond the usual tourist spots. What Makes Santa Barbara Unique hooked me. It painted a picture of a place with stunning coastlines, rolling wine valleys (hello, Santa Ynez Valley!), and a vibrant cultural scene. My fiancé and I love trying new foods and wines, so this chapter had us highlighting all the restaurants and wineries we wanted to visit.

Great way to pull together your itenerary
Listening to this book was a great way to listen to what Santa Barbara had to offer, and I could write down the things that were of interest. I listened to the book while I was working and when I heard something that I wanted on my itinerary, I quickly jotted it down in my notebook. By the end, my list was huge! So then I went back through the things I liked and listened again because then I could help split them out by what would work best for the season I planned to go in. Great book. Love how it is organized!
