I think it’s time I share some pictures from my trip to Aotearoa… (◕‿◕✿)
This is probably the least exciting photo but it reminds me of the van trip my friend and I took around the south island. Hilly and mountainous landscapes cradled us and left us in awe the whole way through. The terrain, ever-shifting, gifted a surprise around every bend. I wish I could go back and take it in all again for the first time.

playing with oil pastels and learning that blending isn’t always better. progress pics between first and second try. pastels are so satisfying to use, but I also am feeling challenged by smudging everything all the time. I’m so messy with them fr!

I’ve been interested in getting into poetry lately. Got a few recommendations from friends, and I’ve just started with “The Logan Notebooks,” a collection of poems by Rebecca Lindenberg.
I love when she writes “I don’t say how I long to throw myself into the deep groove of the present, like a needle in a moving record and pick up the note of this life,” when she mentions her lover watching her as she talks about being in love with the world, as if she’s suppressing (even just a bit) her enthusiasm for this existence. The excitement of noticing, of being in tune with the vibrations of life surrounding you. It makes the heart flutter wildly.

Skipped yesterday, but here’s a snapshot of today. Took a day off to collect my mental. Stepped outside and the first minute of sunlight and blue sky was so blissful. A literal breath of fresh air. I walked to get breakfast at a spot I love. The sounds of a cafe —all the conversations, dishes clanging, kitchen communicating orders— make me feel less alone. Feeling a little better already.
