November 27, 0017 12:00 AM

Visiting Princess Diaries Locations in San Francisco

By Stowaway Magazine
March 19, 0017 12:00 AM
The Princess Diaries was every girl’s dream in the early 2000s. The witty Garry Marshall film is about a girl who discovers she’s a princess, gets a makeover, and falls in love. Perfect plot. Perfect Anne Hathaway and Julie Andrews duo. Perfectly quotable movie. And, it’s set (and filmed, mostly) in the beautiful city of San Francisco, California. Here are four locations you can visit that are featured in the movie.

Exploring California's Glass Beach: From Trash to Treasure

By Stowaway Magazine
June 30, 0016 12:00 AM
Glass Beach was originally a part of the land set aside for the Pomo Native Americans. It was later retaken, delegated as a military fort called Fort Bragg, and over the years softened into the quaint coastal town it is today. In 1906, the town’s residents designated a small bay along the coast as a garbage dump. Forty years later, they moved the dump’s location, but only after irrevocably changing the coastal environment. Nature took the byproduct of the dump and recycled it into a glittering coastline.

Flying Red-eye

September 15, 0015 12:00 AM

By Stowaway Magazine
March 25, 0015 12:00 AM
By Caroline Bliss LarsenAstronomer Carl Sagan once said, “Somewhere, something incredible is waiting to be known.” That’s why so many people travel—to discover, to learn, to explore.

Visiting science-related organizations as part of your travels is both exciting and educational. Here are some places you might want to include on your must-visit list.

Dharamsala, India: Tibetan Spirit Reborn

By Stowaway Magazine
March 31, 0014 12:00 AM
I hobbled out like a hungover sailor shaking out my sea legs. And there I was, in Dharamsala, India—a cluster of brightly colored restaurants and guesthouses all stacked up on top of each other like a patchwork quilt—something between a city and a village nestled on the green mountain ridges, a place in transit, a sanctuary for the homeless, the country-less. The street was packed with maroon-clad monks and dreadlocked, tattooed hippies, Tibetan seniors waving their canes at oncoming traffic as they tried to get to the Dalai Lama’s temple, and then the occasional dazed traveler.
