Hi there! I know it’s been ages since my last post. It was one of those periods where life took me through some twists and turns and even though I was still creating and sharing inspiration on my other social platforms (Instagram/Facebook), coming here and creating a real post seemed impossible. But here I am… Read More Developing an art practice
It’s been almost 2 months since what seems like the ‘world’ shut down due to Covid19. In our state the lockdown was not as strict as in other states. During this time we have been able to go to parks, ride our bikes, walk our dogs. I am very grateful for that. As my time… Read More A quick getaway
From a recent road trip through our state of Arizona and neighboring New Mexico. I’ve heard people say how desolate some of the landscape is in these two states, but all I see is magic. Petrified Forest, Arizona Bandelier National Monument, New Mexico People lived here once, some 11,000 years ago. There was snow too,… Read More Magical landscapes – Arizona and New Mexico
This summer we were able to get away from our scorching desert heat and fly away to Kona. We’ve been there before, some 3-4 years ago and enjoyed it so much we had to come back to explore more. Where we stayed. We stayed at this cute, little eco-cottage, tucked in lush greenery that had… Read More Travel Adventures – Hawaii, The Big Island

And since yesterday all of us happened to be home with no obligations, no school, no work we decided to drive east of town, with no particular plan.… Read More Exploring Arizona – Superior, Miami and Globe
I wanted to start this post by saying that it’s been a while since I’ve been someplace exotic, but then I remembered that in July we went to Alaska even though it was for only a couple of days. Working for an airline makes it easier to visit places near and far. So last week… Read More Costa Rica adventures
I had to return an overdue book at the Scottsdale library and since I was alone I decided to stop and checkout the Soleri Bridge (past attempts to do this with kids has resulted in comments that this would be boring). The bridge was designed by the late Paolo Soleri, an Italian architect who worked… Read More Exploring Scottsdale – Soleri Bridge
We like the outdoors and we are always on the lookout for new places, although we have favorites that we visit over and over. We were set on Mt. Lemmon last year, but about half way up, our car was struggling and we didn’t want to push it. There are many many many stops along… Read More Exploring Mt. Lemmon
