About Virginia Tse

A travel blogger/writer. While growing up in a working-class East Los Angeles area in a barrio, traveling was not a topic of interest. Thanks to college I began wondering about society and the world. I was inspired from taking my first solo trip and had the best trip of my life, thus far. Traveling has changed my entire life in a very positive way....mind, body, and soul. "V Traveling Project" is to share to you all my travel experiences in hopes of inspiring you to do the same, if not better!

October 30, 2013 by Virginia TseLeave a Comment

PUB 1842 is a casual pub and gastropub; at the entrance you will discover an endless variety of beers lined up. The sign here boasts, “Free Water, Cheap Beer”. The food menu consists of burgers, nachos, lobster rolls, and so much more. Chef … [Read more...]

October 22, 2013 by Virginia TseLeave a Comment

As a guest of the MGM PR team I was in Las Vegas to cover the iHeartRadio Festival and a number of related activities. I stayed at the MGM Grand for 3 nights. MGM Grand exceeded my expectations. A waiting limousine whisked me from the airport to my room. The driver was friendly and we soon struck up a conversation; he grew up only less than 5 minutes away from my hometown. Besides the driver being personable, it was a pleasure to enjoy the … [Read more...]

Visiting The Armory in San Francisco

January 19, 2013 by Virginia Tse1 Comment

The Armory is not what you think it is! To start off, this building is a historical building located in a residential area of Mission District. This building was originally built for the United States National Guard and was later unused in 1976. The building served no purpose until 2006, when an Internet pornography company called Kink.com decides to buy it off. Kink.com specializes in BDSM pornography for the sexual minorities with a definite … [Read more...]
