Off to Ireland  — 2 weeks ago

Well, it has finally arrived. I’m going to Ireland with my favorite poet, David Whyte!!!! I’m still packing and I”m a terrible packer, but never the less, tomorrow I depart for such fun. I have enjoyed anticipating this trip. I booked the trip right before I moved out, giving myself something to look forward to during such a difficult time. It’s also a bit of a 35th birthday present to myself. So happy birthday to me!!!

enjoying reviewing my photos  — 8 months ago

this is arahova a town on the way to delphi! we rented a car in athens and drove all over, it was too much fun. and thankfully, no accidents…. people drive lawlessly in greece.

I had a wonderful trip to Greece  — 8 months ago

I was living life to the fullest and more! my vacation was pure adventure, spontaneity, fun, it was everything. It was my first time travelling to Europe and I can’t wait to go back. My friend who travelled with me is truly one of my best friends. If she can travel with me, sleep in the same room and basically hang with me 24/7 for two weeks continuously! I count her as an amazing friend. There are not alot of people who I could have that much fun with! We both had new cameras, and we took a ridiculous amount of pictures, that I will need to deal with in the coming month. It also felt great to unwind from LA and live according to the rhythms of ourselves and the country we were in. Just pure, wonderful living. I’m happy to say, that since I’ve been back to work, my vacation has afforded me a much more relaxed attitude and I can feel so much stress just rolling off my back. Plus, I have my sense of humor back! If going to europe is what it takes, I’ll do it. I feel like me again! Happy and able to see the humor in life! Yes.

And we had a beer at this cute restaurant in Mykonos, covered with brilliant pink bouganvillia. Great memories.

I'm going to Greece  — 9 months ago

My travel mate and I just got our tickets last night!!!! Now we need an itinerary and to read up on greek culture and history. I’m so excited! And sort of fun to plan this trip out of the blue, it just happened to be the right timing for my friend and I to travel together.

the 4 hour work week  — 10 months ago

a friend just gave me the audio cd of this book. and it’s very in alignment with my goal of living life to the fullest. he talks about not trying to find the perfect job that will provide life long fulfillment; but instead finding what interests a person, what is motivating, so that one can do it with some passion, and then finding the most efficent way to do it. Ie work the least amount of time for the most amount of profit.
He also talks about taking mini-retirement’s throughout life, rather than waiting until the end. I think I find that concept to make sense, for myself anyways. I feel I have an ebb and flow to my cycles of energy and work, and attention. anyways, just thoughts, but I’m journaling and spending time meditating on what I do get excited about, and when I feel happy, things I want to do, places I want to go. I even created a fantasy itinerary for my “someday” trip around the world!

drunken emails?  — 10 months ago

well, this may be classified in many ways….... but I did email my crush, who moved off to idaho. so he is safely removed from any possible imagination. but still, I emailed him. that is my daring move for the week.

New Zealand  — 11 months ago

I keep having a feeling that travelling in New Zealand will help me work towards this goal of living life to the fullest. Plus I have friends who live on the north island who own a ranch. It’s calling to me.

beach yoga  — 1 year ago

went to beach yoga tonight. met my friend deb and her bf, and a neighbor of hers…..it was the best. Sunny, dolphins playing, splashing, wind, waves, sunset, sweet smiles, hugs, and kirtan with Dave Stringer!!! Perfect. I totally forgot all annoyances of the day and felt alive and perfectly in love with myself and each breath of wonderful air. I’m going next week for sure! little moments like this help remind me of what i love and how blessed we are.

sipping champagne with mom  — 1 year ago
