It’s been a while and I guess I still live here. It’s three months since the last time I did this, but I’ll try to catch you up! Don’t hold your breath, I have a lot of ground to cover.

‘How to age gracefully’ video
I came across this video and thought it was such a wonderful idea that was well executed. As a projected, I’m delighted thinking about all the fun the crew must have had meeting all the people and all the good stories that didn’t make the final cut. How to Age Gracefully from Andrew Norton on…
Pursue v protect?
“In the West…people believe they must ‘pursue happiness’ as if it were some kind of flighty bird that is always out of reach. In the East, we believe we are born with happiness and one of life’s important tasks, my mother told me, is to protect it” Le Ly Hayslip from When Heaven and Earth Changed…

Stateside again
I’m sitting in the dining room of my parent’s house in Nebraska. My month-long trip to Asia is over and I’m trying to catch up on sleep and prepare for moving across the other half of the country. But before I shift into a the next mode, a few words, no? Singapore My first stop was…
‘The Kármán Line’ short video
Loved this short video I came across. It made the wonder how they came up with the story. I like to think someone was just staring up at the ceiling at a patch job, and instead of choosing a boring reason it was patched up, they come up with this idea instead.
