Stories

“It has been said that next to hunger and thirst, our most basic human need is for storytelling.”

Kahlil Gibran

The stories of others helps define the way I view life. Their experiences share wisdom on what I have yet to encounter. Stories with others builds memories, lessons, successes, and profound connection. Stories are proof of our progressing existence. I’m excited to share.

Switzerland – Satisfying the Soul

Now this is a trip that I will never be able to do justice for. From the way I describe the towns, the photos and videos I took to capture visuals – nothing will truly express its peaceful essence except experiencing its purity for yourself. But I will do my best to make sure you…

Our Family in Denizli

I don’t know if words will ever do justice for the experience Kimia and her family gave us in Denizli, Turkey. My one and only Kimia. We met in LA in 2018. Ever since we met, her and her family instantly treated me (and anyone that Kimia loves at that) as if we are one…

The Redemption of France

And with perfect synchronicity, Paris made a seamless come back for France. Starting strong with a slow, peaceful morning – we arrive around 8am with a few hours to spare before we are able to check into our Airbnb. We walk around our area to get a good sense of what’s around, and then find…

Frazzled in France

I can’t get away without sharing our experience in France with you. I’m going to start from the beginning, as this whirlwind of events deserves. Story time! For starters, just getting to France in itself was chaotic. I won’t stress you with the details, but know that at one point (less than 24 hours before…

Rant: Pretty Privilege

**This rant was written at the end of 2019** This year I gained a lot of awareness about how others view me. The way people view me doesn’t affect the way I live my life, they don’t have that much power over me. But it does give me different perspectives on what others might think…

The Best Human Race

**This was written in the beginning of 2020. I have since finished this book and do highly recommend checking it out – or any of his studies out** I’m reading a book called Becoming Supernatural by Dr. Joe Dispenza. According to Google, Dr. Joe Dispenza is teaching the world how to empower and heal our mind through meditation and…

The Crash Crew

I have always gotten such an adrenaline high from traveling to new places, trying new things, or simply doing things a little bit outside of the box. It keeps me checking things off of my bucket list and creating memories I will NEVER forget. When you add in doing these things with friends, it just…

Explore Your Options

I think one of the coolest things about moving away from my hometown was I had the opportunity to create and find who I am, without preconceived notions of who I was while growing up. It’s proven our environments and the people who surround us influence our lives subconsciously. No matter how aware we are…

Roamin’ Around

One of my most life-changing travel experiences I had was Rome. I fell in love with the ancient environment, and the still-standing buildings with architecture that blows your mind. The country is so small that we walked the entire perimeter of it, yet it holds such a telling story of history. I was in awe…

It’s Award Show Season!!

This past weekend was so surreal. Sometimes we get so wrapped up in our lives and what we want, that we forget we are currently living the life we used to wish for. This past weekend reminded me I’m living a life I always wished for. I had a lot of, “ahhhh,” moments that made…

Happy One Year, LA.

As clichè as it is, starting a New Year has always been refreshing to me. I enjoy the idea of a fresh start. Setting new goals. Tiddy-ing life up a bit by gathering the lessons you’ve learned and packing them up for the years to come. Re-assessing aspects of life that seem to be missing…
