Greetings from California! I’ll be visiting here for the next two weeks. Instead of flying back and forth across the country willy-nilly, I prefer to make one big trip of things like this, and pack in as much in as possible. You’ll be hearing more about my trip as I go.

A Walk in the Woods
Sometimes there’s only one thing that works to bring sanity back into my life, energy back into my soul, and balance back into my body—and that is a walk in the woods. It doesn’t have to be a perfect day or the right season, because it’s not about being entertained or impressed. It’s about finding […]
Saying Goodbye to Summer

Sydney vs. Melbourne:
It’s Like Chalk and Cheese
My last day in Sydney was a day of utter perfection. When I finally got to the Icebergs ocean swimming pool on the beach at Bondi, I truly felt like I had reached the destination of my pilgrimage to Australia. Then I took an 11-hour train ride from Sydney to Melbourne. At first, after the gloriousness of Sydney, I was a bit bummed. But as I started walking and exploring, I started to see the deeper side of Melbourne, which is highly creative and artistic.
