Over the weekend we celebrated another one of those silly holidays, World Photography Day, but this is one I can get behind. It had me thinking of all the creative and pretty things I’ve shot since my high school days when I first picked up a film camera, to all the amazing travels I’ve taken and…
‘Faded Grandeur’ Meets Contemporary Architecture & Signature Cuisine || A Guide to Porto’s Unique Vibrance
Let me start off my explaining ‘faded grandeur’. It means that Porto’s beautiful historical architecture and homes used to be perfectly chiseled and painted, but have aged a bit, a losing a bit of their pristine looks, but it in NO way deters from all of its stunning beauty! Cobbled streets, tiled building, historical…
Birthday Reflections
“Travel isn’t always pretty. It isn’t always comfortable. Sometimes it hurts, it even breaks your heart. But that’s okay. The journey changes you; it should change you. It leaves marks on your memory, on your consciousness, on your heart, and on your body. You take something with you. Hopefully, you leave something good behind…[and]…As you…
Traveling to…The Picture-Perfect Mountains of Portugal’s Wine Country || Douro Part I
I’ve been feeling pretty nostalgic, I think it’s because I’ve just been so on the go. It’s been even worse, the wanderlust is especially driving me crazy after I finally framed a photo from my Portugal trip last year. It makes me happy but also makes my travel itch even worse! Yet surrounding myself with…
2017 Reflections & My 2018 Vision
Photo c/o Kat Harris Oh 2017, you were one crazy year!! Personally it was a crazy year, but in a good work-busy kind of way. But as far as everything else in the world, it was crazy in all sorts of sad, scary, frustrating and confusing ways – change is definitely upon us this new…
Traveling to… Where Tradition Meets Lively Beauty : Porto’s Picturesque Ribeira
Um espresso quentinho e forte, o vento da tarde do rio navegando com a tradição e vistas pitorescas da cidade e montanhas, as mais lindas melodias de Fado que tocam fundo na tua alma e coração, e as pessoas, de perto e longe, curiosamente caminhando sobre a calçada…..Este é um momento na Ribeira, isto, é o Porto…….
Traveling to…Porto’s Vibrant Historical Streets
I’ve been coming to Portugal all my life, yet I’ve haven’t seen or experienced nearly a quarter of its historic beauty and rich culture. Porto is the country’s second largest and most famous city, yet I’ve only ever been here in passing from the airport, a brief hour before making my way down to our…
Autumn Vibes
The time for falling leaves and apple cider has finally come upon us and we couldn’t be more excited. Whether you’re a fan of carving pumpkins or creating your own Halloween costume, there’s something about fall that makes it a favorite for most. The key word being “most”, because not me, I just deal with it. I figured earlier in…
Summer Reflections :: A Season of Growth
Well, it’s Autumn once again. How did we get here? I’m currently listening to Ella Fitzgerald and La La Land’s original music to get me through some serious seasonal blues. I’ve thoroughly enjoyed summer, it’s been probably one of my best. I mean of course there was Portugal, and I only showed you Lisboa, but…
Traveling to…the Colorful Streets of Lisboa
How was your Labor Day Weekend? Did you relax at home with a staycation or did you get out of town for one last vacay? I wish I had been traveling, but yesterday really felt like a beautiful weekend in Portugal on the farm amongst the mountains. It was warm and the breeze was welcoming…
