At least ten months of the year I’m traveling, or at least living internationally as a digital nomad. So I haven’t posted much about the United States since our big road trip out west in 2012. Despite traveling so frequently in foreign counties, I really do enjoy seeing my own country. I enjoy the diversity of people and landscapes most of all. So I planned a 23-hour layover in Los Angeles on my flight itinerary to Malaysia. It was a good opportunity to visit a friend and enjoy the west coast for a very quick stop.

My friend lives in Santa Monica, so were close to Venice Beach. Here are some shots along the boardwalk at Venice Beach.
