A MESSAGE FROM “WAYMO”
Make the most out of your drive 🚗
Waymo One, the world's first autonomous ride-hailing service, is now rolling out in LA. Waymo One gives you all the freedom of owning a car plus the conveniences of ride-hailing, without the challenges that come with either. From getting where you need to go safely in a space all to yourself to a premium ride that's comfortable, clean, and all-electric, Waymo is made for you to be you. So put on your favorite playlist, sit back, and relax.
For our April Walk Club on 4/20, we’ve teamed up with our friends at Waymo! We'll meet at the Palisades Park Rose garden and take a little beach walk to kick off the weekend. Afterwards, we'll hang out, enjoy some beverages, and have a chance to check out the Waymo One. First 50 people to arrive get a code to try out Waymo One for 1 week in LA. RSVP here.
👋 OH HEY 👋
Mads here! You knew this was coming: let’s recap Coachella this past weekend 🎡 We were invited by our friends at Carving Block to take content of the food lineup at the festival, which after going to Coachella for the past 10 years or so, felt like a dream to go as ~press~ 🤩
Some food highlights included Outstanding in the Field during sunset in the Rose Garden, LOVE HOUR smash burgers with fried pickles, Kogi loaded fries with short rib and kimchi, soup dumplings from MìLà, and more. Full food recap vlog here!
