- Getting there from SF
- 1.5-hour flight or 6–7 hour drive down I-5
- Ideal weekend move
- Pick one neighborhood (Echo Park, Los Feliz, or Venice) and pretend you live there—morning coffee, long walk, one gallery, one taco stand, one bar.
- Best time to go
- October–May, when it’s cooler and the light is soft and weirdly cinematic.
- My take
- LA feels like opening 20 browser tabs of possible lives and only having time to read three of them, which is exactly the right amount for a weekend.
