San Francisco Stalking!
‘ This weekend while visiting San Francisco, my friend Nat put together a custom made stalking tour of The City by the Bay for me. She said she had a new found respect for me, as she hadn’”‘”‘t realized how much time and energy finding locations took until she put together the tour for me.…
