I am living 15 minutes away from sea lions.

Swans, autumn leaves, sketching from life. I am living in Berlin now, and let's try to make the most of it. (this is from 2024, but was not showing in Spotify search results for some reason)

In this episode I am doing hostel work in Taipei, Taiwan. My time in Taiwan is coming to close and wounds are reopening slightly. In this episode I discuss how to keep the 5% that is wounded from opening further and reinfecting. Kinda sorta. And I begin to treat life as a temporary game that is fun to play.

When dreams become the past & the future lies uncertain, I surrender. When the one I want is lost, I surrender.

The world gave us greatness amidst the heartbreak. Living through a broken heart, I got to pet a donkey 15 minutes from my flat and do yoga in the park when spring peeked in for one day in Berlin. I am so lucky that the world is providing me so many moments of comfort during this painful period.

We are in Berlin for the first episode of 2025. How groovy. Today we walk through one of my favorite parks in the city, visiting the goats and munching on some snow.

This past week my years-old dream was actualized in a Polish cafe in Berlin. The wind had stolen it years ago, but the wind has returned it to my lap. A big boulder of a pebble moment this week, crashing down on my head (but it doesn't hurt!)

Another little pebble moments episode from a girl who walks along the river's edge collecting stones. For the past 3 months, I have lived the dream: filming a documentary about a monkey rescue center. Now, my prior obligations have taken me from the jungle I have come to love. In the midst of transition, this episode captures my first attempts to digest the experience I just had and transform it into lessons for my unknown future.

Speaking to you from London on a walk to study at the Barbican Center! Academics are tough, and I stress. Here is me attempting to destress.

I am here again, but I may also fade away again. I simply enjoy the presence of the moment whenever those moments present themselves. This moment takes place in Patagonia, walking along lake Argentino. I take you to hopping rocks along a solo walk where I felt comfortable being alone for the first time in quite some time. Maybe I am evolving. Maybe I am recentering on self.

Deep from the archives, I have returned along with this voice memo that I recorded while waiting for the subway to take me home from Sunset Library in San Francisco. I am currently editing a video reflecting upon my San Francisco experience, and this voice memo sums it up way better than my memory can try to recollect. Bits of this episode will be in the upcoming video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ttb5flxA5S4), but the full RAW thing is here for you to listen to. Listening to this recording, I am revisited with pure joy and light for a city that brought so much unconditional love. I am forever grateful for the city, the people, and my experience.
