One out of every one hundred selfies actually make me feel pretty.... This is one of them. It's not perfect, I'm sweaty, but I'm digging the no make up vibes (minus lip color SHOUTOUT to @storybookcosmetics Romance) on this beautiful beachy day. #selfie #selflove #beachhairdontcare #sweatinglikeasinnerinchurch https://www.instagram.com/p/B10oH7dhpT_/?igshid=16idjuaxs6lf5

#天神祭 or #tenjinmatsuri is one of the top fire festivals and an old tradition.Tenjin Matsuri is the festival of the #TenmanguShrine and honors its principle deity #SugawaraMichizane, the deity of scholarship. The festival begins by ceremonially inviting the deity out of the shrine and parading him through the city, carrying out various exuberant festivities to entertain him, before taking him back to the shrine. The smell of burning pine, the bells clanging, the history. #traveladdict https://www.instagram.com/p/B1kQ3BwhJa9/?igshid=e2dmip4wei3r

Dear #551horai please come to Okinawa.... You make the perfect steam bun....I ate mine cold this morning because I ate takoyaki last night..... In all seriousness though when on the west side of Japan try some... It's quick, cheap, and delicious https://www.instagram.com/p/B1h0WoJB-ui/?igshid=9za4553xbt9i

Ah, #Kyoto you are still breathtakingly beautiful even after all these years. History, culture, tradition, have you even aged? So much history... Please don't change. #kyotojapan https://www.instagram.com/p/B1e2JqxhYdb/?igshid=ez1diqppl1ua

For those that don't know, I have 4 large tattoos. However this tattoo (one of three) is the first very visible tattoo. It's also the first tattoo I've had done by a different artist other than Jay from @lambertandgunn . Mia @miacattattooer was not only AMAZING but I think I officially have an Okinawa tattoo artist! Looking forward to my next one! https://www.instagram.com/p/B1Tvx2xhs7C/?igshid=4m0gka8yi8sw

There's just something #cathartic about #baking . I bake for those I care about, I bake to show I care, I bake to cheer people up, I stress bake, heck I bake to bake. If you have a memory of something I've made or if you think of me while you bake I consider that a happy memory, and with how the world is nowadays we could all use a little baked love. #loveineverybite https://www.instagram.com/p/B0D-eXUhSAF/?igshid=i7s22e1luglv

Most people who know me now knows that I'm a foodie, but my close friends are there only people who knew the struggles I had with food and how big of a battle I've had to get to where I'm at. I had an #eatingdisorder in high school that not many people knew about. I might not have looked skinny back then (I actually went down so much in weight my period stopped) but in the end it took me fainting in my shower to realize I wasn't OK. My senior year I finally gained back some weight but college was where I finally decided to break my OCD habits with food and try to learn how to be hungry (sounds weird right? learning how to actually listen to my body to tell me I'm hungry). Nebraska, I over indulged and was actually the heaviest I've ever been #marriedlife . Fast forward to Okinawa...you've been so good to me. You've taught me to embrace my health, my life, and see that I can overcome anything I set my mind to with balance. #soulfulsunday #mentalhealth #anorexia #anxiety #workinprogress #breakthestigma #behindthesmile https://www.instagram.com/p/Bz4Zi1KBcoz/?igshid=p62sr7bii2l5
