Going to San Diego for work in January and want to tack on a long weekend. I don’t want to stay in San Diego. Any ideas for another part of CA or somewhere to fly that’s not super far but easier to get to from SD than east coast? I live on the east coast and want to take advantage of being on the west coast to drive or fly somewhere fo a getaway. I’m into mountains, beaches, wine, food.

Stay in Encinitas or La Jolla. Temecula wine country isn’t too far. Can drive up the coast to laguna beach/Newport beach within an hour. Santa Barbara and paso aren’t too far either. Could also do a weekend in Palm Springs or Vegas.

La Jolla, Ensenada, SLO?

Ensenada and SLO/Paso Robles have actual wine countries and dope food options.

Big Sur. Napa/Sonoma. Malibu. Yosemite. I mean the possibilities are endless in CA. If you want to go to Mexico try Valle de Guadalupe or Cabo.

You can take the train up to Santa Barbara. It has beautiful beaches, a buzzing wine and brewery scene, incredible food, and some fantastic hiking.

Great recs! I feel silly for only thinking wine country was up North.

I have a weeklong vacation planned in the next few weeks, and right now I don’t see any issues with getting coverage while I’m gone. However, I’m a junior attorney and I’ve been low on hours the past few months, and my work has just started to really pick up. I’m afraid that taking vacation might stop the momentum/end up in me having less work when I get back. Is this something I should consider delaying my vacation over, or am I overthinking this?

I'm at a smaller MM bank. My original goal was to start here and hustle through into a BB, but I wasn't expecting to really like the people (my team, my direct seniors).
