Everlasting Imprints: The Experience That Lives On
More Than A Vacation Vacations are wonderful. It is a time to get away from the hustle and the daily stress and just relax with your family and friends. My family of eight just returned from Paradisus La Perla - Adults Only all-inclusive and I wouldn't change a thing. It was just what we all needed after my mother's passing a year ago. It was a time to bond, a time to reminisce on the good ole' days, and a time to relax and reflect.

Mazatlan
In 2016 I retired from my job and decided to take the year off before going back to work part-time. I really did need the break. I was invited by a friend to go to her retreat.

Standing Still. Top Story - May 2024.
There are very few moments in life where time truly stands still. When your breath is taken from your chest and your body hangs weightless in that moment. Just long enough for it to stay with you from that day onwards. Deep in the red sands of the Australian Outback, I found that moment and clung to it forever.

Surprise Thanksgiving
I don’t know if this is my best trip ever, but it is definitely up there in my top ten list. And while it was a very short trip, I did luckily remember to take a few photos. The trip in question took place last year on Thanksgiving.

The Midnight Madness. Content Warning.
Amidst the quiet hum of the small town of Willow Creek, nestled beneath a canopy of ancient trees, there stood a carnival—an ephemeral spectacle that materialized only under the veil of night. Within its labyrinthine confines, where the scent of cotton candy mingled with the faint whispers of the wind, there lay a sinister secret—a ghost train that traversed the darkness, its passengers destined for a journey beyond the realms of the living.

The Many Faces of Berlin
Octoberfest is party time in Berlin and I just couldn’t get into it. I was sharing a long table with the locals in Alexander Platz, a huge outdoor plaza in the middle of the city while nursing a lager, four euros for the drink and another for the glass stein which I get back after returning it to the bar. The Germans are nothing if not practical.

A Siberian Story: Tag, You’re It. Top Story - May 2024.
Snow shimmers in -24 degrees. Trees that usually wear their forest green coats are dusted by frost, looming tall and piercing the pastel coloured sky like sentinels for a citadel of silence. Finland is made of frozen moments, standing so still in between breaths of icy air. It’s serene. It’s like a dream. It’s the most enchanting thing I’ve ever seen.

In My Wildest Dreams
If you had told eight-year-old me that one day I'd be living out my dream of travelling to different states and facilities to care for exotic animals, I would've been overwhelmed with a mix of joy and disbelief, thinking it was too good to be true.

New Writing Prompt #2
New Writing Prompt #2 If you could pack up and leave on vacation today, where would you be off to? If I could pack up and leave for vacation, right now, I would one hundred percent be going to a Disney theme park. I would choose Disney World, Disneyland, Disneyland Paris, Disney Hong Kong, Tokyo, or Shanghai. A Disney cruise is also an option for a great drop-it-and-go vacation. I have been dreaming, like Rapunzel, of leaving my metaphorical tower to go on a grand adventure through the surrounding kingdoms of the land.
