Your video on the solo trip to Key West, FL inspired me to go solo to Myrtle Beach, SC. I had a great time. It was like a spiritual retreat/vacation. Just me and God walking along the beach in prayer 🙏🏽
Girl you slayed the hell out this video! I lost myself after having my son and it’s really encouraging to watch you. You have helped me work on getting back right. It really helps that we’re the same age also. Can’t wait for the next one!
I really enjoyed my LA trip also 2 years ago. It was my first time there and had a great time. I did Pink’s , the TMZ tour, Santa Monica Pier, Venice beach, the Grammy museum, the Observatory and saw a few celebrities.
I don't blame you. I did the same thing last month. It started off as a solo journey. I flew to Dallas, picked up my girlfriend, stayed in Dallas for a day. Then we flew to L.A. (we both use to live there). Rented a car and drove to Vegas the next day. Hooked up with another friend of ours. Stayed in Vegas a few day. Flew back to Dallas and stayed for a few day. Then flew back to VA. We had a ball!!
I know that you are not feeling the maintenance of the wave hair but the look is GORGEOUS!! I'm glad that you had a fun trip. It seems as if there is so much to do there. I was worn out just watching lol.
Omg. Thank you for taking us along!!! It always feels like I am there with you! I think I got full twice lol! Keep up the great content you're delightful!
Soooo happy you had a great time in my beautiful state!😍 Love that you enjoyed a great shopping spree. Fashion is what LA is all about and you can find some beautiful pieces. Roscoe’s is a must and so happy you tried it!😘👏🏽 I must say that night life was a little too much for you!!😆 I could tell you were “feeling” it! Sorry your body suffered a bit, but you truly experienced the LA night life !! All in all, happy you loved our state and the fun areas we have to offer. 🥰🥰💕❤️ Awesome vlog!!
Lia, I really enjoy how you are evolving on your channel with traveling, reviews, and just being you. Please do a full LA Review on your stay with people, men, attitudes, food, finding airfare deals etc.😊
The view from your hotel is everything 🙌🏾🙌🏾. You really saw some good places in LA. I want to take a trip back now. Fun Fact about Roscoes chicken and waffles. The owners are from NY. Chicken is waffles is actually an east coast thing. Enjoy. Safe travels.
Your view was amazing!! Glad to finally be watching this. I really want to check out Roscoe’s chicken and waffles. This really gives me confidence in solo travel.
Nice vlog! 👏🏽 I felt like I was there with ya! Look so fun glad you were able catch up with your friend and see the night life! Very inspirational I’m thinking of doing a solo trip to Phoenix after watching your last few vlogs I’m getting closer to just going ahead and doing it!
Lol about the ‘good morning’ on the elevator. I’ll say it’s not necessarily the tone of your voice saying good morning but the fact that you said it. I’m from jersey. Born & raised. On the east coast, especially up north, it’s not common place to speak to strangers AND if we do it’s just a head nod or a how you doin’ in acknowledgement of a person’s presence. So the fact that you were polite and friendly gave away that you are probably from the southern part of the country. My best friend is from Virginia and she speaks to everyone and finds it irritating that I don’t. Lol. I’m not rude just was raised not to talk to strangers while she will tell them all her business if they respond to her small talk.
So true. From the North now living in the South & it still gets me...especially in the restroom, lol. On the later, I'm like I'm not here to make friends. Just want to go potty and be on my way...LOL 😆!
Lol I was thinking the same thing. Probably didn't expect a good morning. I will say in NC they speak and tourist spots in SC but a lot of the south can look you in the eye and not speak. Im more of a smile and head nod but from the south lol guess I have an up north attitude lol
I LOOOOOVVVVE YOU out here living your life! Im planning a solo trip myself. My dad who travels and shops all the time told me a trick, that if you shopping hard, and you cant fit it in your luggage -- find a post office girl and pay them lil extra coins and have it shipped to your house. :-) Or either he mails his dirty clothes home , that way he can fly back with the new stuff!
Loved the vlog Lia! I’m glad I stumbled on your chanel! I am also from NC! I’m planning my first solo LA trip in a couple weeks , and I booked a Airbnb but now I’m considering a hotel, any preference or tips on one Against the other?
You should've slept on the plane, lol. It's what I always do to be ready to hit the streets when I get there...😊. Btw...that hair is giving true Cali vibes.
Thank u for this, im living vicariously thru u RN. U r building my courage/confidence to conquer this world solo and to feel good about doing so. Altho u bring us along so i dont feel like u r really solo 😂😂😂. One question i would like to know and hopefully not too invasive, r these trips budget friendly for the really average joe?
I saw Winnie’s twin at the airport. Surprisingly it didn’t seem too crowded in LA for a holiday weekend. Question: when you are walking towards your camera, you don’t worry about someone snatching your gear?
Yes!! I had to grab a pic of Winnies twin. Honestly both coming and going the airports were very quiet. It was not very crowded at a lot of the places I went so I wasn’t really nervous about anyone taking my camera.
Seeing solo travel 🧳 to LA makes me want to solo travel to LA. I didn't think that would be possible. I was wondering were you going to rent a car 🚗 but looks like you manages without a car. And you are right about SC not having a mask mandate 🙄. When I go out, I feel like I am the only one that wears a mask. Sometimes I feel like there is no point in wearing a mask.
Love the vlog, I was thinking about going to LA by myself also. Quick question - How do you take those pictures of yourself, is it with a tripod or do you get some stranger to hold it for you? I am genuinely curious :)
@@erikhyldebrandthemmingsen8421 If you want to see it, I talk about it in my latest video (ua-cam.com/video/_VjF_Wvttio/v-deo.html) fast forward to exactly the 10:00 ( 10 minute mark). I talk about it then and link it in the description box.
Sis I was wrong I just saw you in your outfit Sis you are Small!!! especially for Us Black girl Rocks. Yes me and my bestfriend visit California over 25years in airport and the guys behind us say where you from we was SHOCKED we say Texas H-town we ask Y he said we sound country lol we was surprise we really had a Southern tone🤠
I felt like we knew each other were visitors cause we were in a hotel elevator but I was more confused on how they knew the specific state I was from. Like maybe I was from South Carolina or Virginia 😩😂

Aww thank you 😊😊
I can’t comprehend why you put on makeup, you have the clearest most glowing skin. Slay either way.
She is stunning, even in her natural state she's LA pretty too.
I love how you live fearlessly! Such a fun vlog💜
I really enjoyed my LA trip also 2 years ago. It was my first time there and had a great time. I did Pink’s , the TMZ tour, Santa Monica Pier, Venice beach, the Grammy museum, the Observatory and saw a few celebrities.
I was hoping to run into some celebs 😩😂
Omg the location of roscoe you went to is the original one lol I go there every time I go to LA
You looked like you really enjoyed LA! Loved those dresses you tried on.
Thank you girl!!!
Hey Lia, this is a great video. Los Angeles will be my next adventure.

I’m here again. Who knew! I met someone that lives out in LA and your video got me so stoked about going out there now.
Lia living her best life!!! You betta give us slow mo realness! Love it

Omg. Thank you for taking us along!!! It always feels like I am there with you! I think I got full twice lol! Keep up the great content you're delightful!
I really miss Roscoes! I hope you enjoyed the meal there.
Your videos help me plan a solo trip to California thank you 🙏🏽!!
Have fun!!
I love Roscoe's!!! When I visited Cali, we went to about 3/ 4 different Roscoe's locations and they were ALL GOOD!!!
Yes!! Both locations I went to were great!

I love your travel vlogs so much. You have such a great time that it makes me want to hop on a plane too. Thank you for sharing with us!
I would love to see a New Orleans trip and maybe somewhere all inclusive in Jamaica, Mexico, or Aruba!
Definitely have New Orleans on the list for next year!!
I totslly enjoyed this vlog, and of course you were in my city. Glad that you had a very good time here.
I'm ready to visit LA now! This gave me all the vibes! Can't wait to adventure to Hollywood!
Yesss Lia luv these travel vlogs🙌🏽
Lia, I really enjoy how you are evolving on your channel with traveling, reviews, and just being you. Please do a full LA Review on your stay with people, men, attitudes, food, finding airfare deals etc.😊
I don’t know if I was there long enough to do a breakdown on the men 😩😂

Thank you so much!!!

You can definitely compete with any of those 'LA' ladies! I like the shirts you got for Winnie. A Cupcake vending machine!😋
Loved this vlog! I love LA!
Aggie Pride to the folks u met in the elevator!!!!!!!! looks like you had a blast.
This was perfect timing leaving for LA on Saturday!
Have fun!!
I could tell you loved L.A. Suggestions for international travel, Paris France, and Hong Kong

I was debating on taking a solo trip in November. I have been making excuses for why I shouldn't, but you know what I'm going!
Omg, yes, good choice with Pinks and Chicken and Waffles

I’m not really a big Airbnb person unless traveling with a group. So a hotel was the only option in this case for me.
You're making me miss home so bad...I miss L.A. The vibe, the food, the people...
Fun times… PS: You can totally still wear your white pants. As long as they’re not linen you’re fine🤗
I’m not a white pant wearer in general lol… I’m too messy lol
I love the pink top for Winnie 💗. When you were in the store I thought it was for a little baby...
😩😂 It’s probably confusing for customers too. They were right beside the baby clothes lol
How did you take those walking shots?
Just my tripod and phone
You looked like you had fun ! Your voice reminds me of nitraab I love her
I love her too!!
I enjoy your blog ❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️
You should've slept on the plane, lol. It's what I always do to be ready to hit the streets when I get there...😊.
Btw...that hair is giving true Cali vibes.
It’s so hard for me to sleep on planes lol
Pretty dog 🐕
Amazing vlog. Thanks for sharing .
Great video!
Los Angeles, my city!
Came across your video in doing my own research for a solo trip to LA and I loved it! Would you recommend getting a rental car?
I think a rental car would definitely help!
Thank u for this, im living vicariously thru u RN. U r building my courage/confidence to conquer this world solo and to feel good about doing so. Altho u bring us along so i dont feel like u r really solo 😂😂😂. One question i would like to know and hopefully not too invasive, r these trips budget friendly for the really average joe?
Oh absolutely. I’ll touch on it a little in my financial journey video next month.
I love the green short dress on u☺☺😊🙌❤💖💞
How do you do your self portrait? Thinking of doing solo trip myself to la
I use a tripod.
Girl, you are living the life eating watever you want honey I'm here for it

Yeaaaaa Upstate SC, barely anyone wears masks smh.
It’s like they are pretending the pandemic is over in some places I go in SC 😩
@@LiaLavon and be surprised when their loved ones gets sick. Insane.
@@LiaLavon main reason I have avoided SC like the plague lol they living life on the edge. I live life safely.
Can you provide what kind of camera you use to vlog?
I split between my Sony ZV1 and iPhoneX
Hair is looking great! A paddle brush and water will solve that issue.
Feels like that just made it worst lol

Yes!
California yes thats where im from San Diego,California
Great video! Have you reviewed this hair that you’re wearing yet. You look beautiful and your skin is amazing too! What products do you use?
Other than the mini review I gave in this video no full video yet cause I still have the hair in
You looked like you really enjoyed yourself. Did have to buy more luggage?
Luckily no, but my bag had to be complementary checked cause the extender made it too big lol
Diahann Carroll❤️ & I can’t believe they named that girl after a street 🤣
I'm highly upset that you didn't review those greens!! 😋😘💜💙
😩😂 they weren’t bad but they really weren’t as good as the lady was making them out to be lol
@@LiaLavon Ahhh Okay...😁♥️💜💙. I was hoping they were good. 🙁

Which hotel did you stay in?
Hotel Sofetil

You will have love in ur life then 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾
Next place to visit should be London
It’s definitely on the list!!
Try brushing the hair out to bring it together then I think it will be easier to handle
did you go to Leimert Park?
No
Lord that hotdog place looks good! 🤤
It was so heavy but good!!
Music slaps. Food smacks...
Atlantic City NJ
Australia
They know when you're a visitor. I traveled to Philadelphia and they knew off the bat I was not a resident.
I felt like we knew each other were visitors cause we were in a hotel elevator but I was more confused on how they knew the specific state I was from. Like maybe I was from South Carolina or Virginia 😩😂
@@LiaLavon lol, right
1) you bangin', 2) I was I'm Columbia in November of 2021 and thr mask mandate was in full effect. Charleston? Not really.
Enjoyed your Vlog and as always Thanks for sharing BUT runny eggs 🤮
I thought I was the only one who had been to a KFC that claimed they didn't have any chicken. Lol.
It’s all of them 😩😂
It’s a lot of beauty standards and plastic surgery just took me out 😂😂😂
