Having friends visit Seattle is always a gift. For some, it’s a chance to catch up. For others, it’s a reason to show all sorts of niche things. And for me, it’s a chance to eat my way through the city guilt free. I have been very lucky to take around my friend,…

How to Snowshoe–4 Things I Wish I Knew Earlier
Living in a place with snow and terrain worth exploring (sorry Great Plains), it was time to join in on the fun that is snowshoeing! The season has only just started, but I’ve not only gone a couple of times, I’ve dived into avalanche awareness classes, gear reviews as someone in my life…

Dreamy Hikes In The Pacific Northwest–Tackling My Top 5!
As promised, a more blog oriented post on this! To be honest, doing that video was quite out of my comfort zone.

Amid three weeks of work travel, a wedding I still feel humbled to be a part of, my cousin’s wedding, and attempting to be a socially acceptable level of functional as I still have a life outside of work, procrastinating fun stuff like packing leads to this.

Southeast Asia: Taiwan
Taiwan is an unexplored wonder for me. One I’m quite ecstatic to venture into. As mentioned before, I owe my friends of Grand Prismatic Media for putting Taiwan on my radar. These gems of humans spent a week roaming the country and only had enthralling things to say of it. Free spirits with…
