Philippines: “Come as a guest, leave as a friend”

A few snaps from a trip to the Philippines ( Coron, Puerto Princesa, and Boracay) and a playlist that let’s me pretend like I’m on the beach again. Enjoy!

West Coast Fix.

I missed the west side this thanksgiving. In Tokyo I probably see 10,000 faces just on my commute and back to work, and yet I feel no eyes but the city’s.

For someone who loves the sun, guacamole, and easy-going peeps as much as I, it may seem strange that I moved to Tokyo and left LA one year ago.

This Tokyo city life, in a lot of ways, is everything that I am not. But maybe it is because of that, that I am so enamored by it.

California dreaming today.

The Island of Gili, Indonesia

I feel like I’ve been stumbling upon one dream location after another in Indonesia…but I must say, Gili is hard to beat. It is the sheer definition of island paradise.
