| August 28, 2017 | – From August 15, 2017 in Tanzania, Africa – Mack’s SnoreBlocker earplugs are my saving grace. I only woke up once last night to dogs fighting around 2:30am, and then again around 5am to the rooster crowing. Yet, we all found our ways to breakfast, successfully greeting “habari asubuhi” to […]
| August 23, 2017 | – From August 14, 2017 in Tanzania, Africa – Our “good night’s rest” didn’t come so peacefully last night. Turns out, the dogs start fighting at 10PM, and continue until 4AM, when there’s a slow transition from dogs barking to roosters crowing. I think the roosters are confused, because I’m […]
| August 13, 2017 | I can’t really do much complaining about my travels to Tanzania. There was something comforting about solo travel to a familiar place. Despite the multiple delays from New York to Boston, and Boston to Amsterdam, my journey was still relatively stress-free. Now contrast this to the 13-hour layover in Ethiopia, […]
| August 12, 2017 | Through the divine combination of manifestation and hard work/determination, I have landed myself back in Tanzania! In April 2016, I promised I’d return to the place that shaped my professional career and broadened my horizons, inspiring me in ways I am still discovering. And… here I am, back in Arusha! […]

My brain that was […]
| March 22, 2017 | No, I’m not going to talk about the “Incredible Journey” in the ’93 movie, although that does make me feel warm and fuzzy inside to think about. I’m talking about my homeward bound journey for the holidays this year, and all the other times I’ve needed home. There’s nothing better than reuniting with […]
| January 1, 2017 | Are you with me in the disbelief that 2016 is over? Apparently, we were gifted one second more in 2016, but it still seemed to zoom by. I can’t believe all the transitions I’ve experienced in 2016, which I adapted to nearly effortlessly. From leaving the Sunshine State to embracing mountain […]
| November 5, 2016 | I sit by my window in my new apartment in Lacey, Washington, with a “Flannel Blanket” soy candle burning, a minion blanket on my lap, and rain pattering on my window pane. It’s officially rainy season in the Pacific Northwest, and it has me embracing my creative juices today. Finally, it’s […]
