Corinne A. doesn’t wait around for summer to come, she goes out and chases it down — this time in her hometown, San Diego. For this weekend of summer, she rented Jake’s Mini Cooper convertible to get the wind in her hair and catch as many rays as possible.

Let’s be honest, the fish tacos and fresh seafood were the real lure for Corinne, but she also took full advantage of the beaches, which were picture-perfect and gave her some fun surf sessions too.


Zipping around town in the Mini meant that she could easily explore the hip North Park neighborhood, the historic outdoor murals in Chicano Park, and more.
