Today’s climate was the perfect political backdrop for a side trip to Montgomery, Alabama. The Legacy Museum and National Memorial for Peace and Justice is a central location for the infamous African slave trade in America. Sometimes travel experiences hurt. …
It’s 1pm and the sun is high and very hot. There is a cool breeze under the rustling trees that provide a little relief from the scorching sun. It’s reverently quiet, although kids are at play, friends are talking and eating lunch together and visitors rub their hands over the names inscribed into the Ground Zero memorial, trying to visualize the chaos and carnage of that autumn day almost 16 years ago last month.

Our hike from Monterosso to Vernazza promised an adventure, yet it was tougher than any of us anticipated. A little research would have chave been nice, but we skipped that.

Out here by myself on the salt flats in Utah, with the sky turning orange and pink at sunset, I love making the water splash and seeing the clouds at my feet. It`s pretty amazing. It gets me thinking about where I`m headed as a content creator – there`s a lot of room to grow, but the exact way forward isn`t totally clear yet. #saltflatselfie
