Yesterday was perfect timing when I was flipping through the latest issue of HOW magazine and I discovered a new online feature they have on the site – travel guides written by designers. There are only two out right now, but lucky for me, Austin (where I am now!) was one of them. So in the spirit of good travel tips, here’s a little roundup of all my go-to places when it comes to Austin.

• HOW travel guide: Austin
• design*sponge Austin design city guide by Alyson Fox
• Austin guide on NYT
• National Geographic Traveler Austin + photo essay
