A bicycle ride away from my apartment; is the surf, skate and graffiti land of the beach world. Venice, is as much about its people as its vibe and atmosphere. Venice is the boyfriend you can’t breakup with. It’s wild, notorious and just not tamable; but that’s what makes you come back every time. Bars, cafes, restaurants with beautiful architecture, wide eyed tourists, and carefree happy residents add to the picturesque scenery of the Venice beach. “Venice of America” - Abbot Kinney’s creation on the Venice beach is one of my favorite places to spend my weekends. Hearing the waves and witnessing all the happy smiles around!
