Hi you,
I expect what will always stay with met about Paris is the way that they turn even their food into a romantic experience, full of wonder and feeling and beauty.
I’ll probably always miss this city,

Hi you,
Do you get tired of the endless round of doing, action, hustle and dreaming of dreams and setting goals? This morning, I woke up exhausted and knew I had to write out the struggle so I could understand why I was waking up as mentally tired as when I went to bed.
As it so often does, writing gave me the perspective I needed to find the true problem.
If you are tired too, please join me through the link below.

Hi you,
Yup, the reports you heard (or probably didn’t) are true. Instagram and I broke up for a little while. It’s a relationship I’ll probably keep, but this space has been giving me back my life.

Hi you,
The other day as I sat in a room full of people the muted roar of talking suddenly became the ocean to me, with its ebb and flow, power, and potential to open majestic worlds for us to explore.
It made me see conversation in a new way, kind of as a vast frontier to be explored, and has made me so happy to be alive with the power of being able to communicate. It’s incredible to be human.
Counting my blessings,

Hi you,
I’ve been learning a lot about how to let the loneliness serve me, how to let the spaces and lapses that life inevitably holds teach me about identity.
We all wonder who we really are, deep down inside.
At least I do,

Hi you,
Among the dazzle of the beach vacation lies a humbler option: camping. Having put it on my NC bucket list a few years ago it was a delight to accept the offer to go with friends.
It was hot, but wonderful. I’ll always have best memories of a July weekend spent in Carolina Beach, North Carolina.

Hi you,
Do you ever dream of finding a perfect item, 570% off at a thrift store?
I exaggerate, but finding a $200 coat for $0.50 was pretty close. Read on for the day a fairy-tail came true.
Hi you,
If you visit one spot in NC, I highly recommend Craggy Gardens. The views are magnificent and there are pockets of magic to be discovered.
Though here…
Hi you,
This post is for you secret dreamers of the wild: colorful fashions, disco balls, and fans of Michael Jackson. Along the way you might find people you know, sarcasm, and your new 80s summer fashions.
Enjoy,
Hi you,
They say you never know what is around the bend and it is true. I could never have guessed what would wait for me the day I brought home a pair of Birkenstocks…
Bonjour,
Sometimes I play a little game abroad of finding the things I’d do if I lived in a place. Paris is filled with things to my taste: having so many gardens, pretty walks, and delectable food, as well as an exquisite taste in fashion.
This is my take on the Parisian lifestyle, and how to experience it, here and there.
