Kansas City - Travel Guide
My sister moved to Kansas City, Missouri 2 years ago with her husband and my nephew. I’ve had the pleasure of visiting them and exploring Kansas City. There’s a lot to do in this city, so I’ve started to put together a list of my favorite places to dine, where to get coffee and cute boutiques. Thanks to my sister for always showing us around to her favorite places.
