Denver
I was able to connect with Zhenya, a friend I made while living in Samara, in Denver! It was the perfect place to meet up. It’s mild in the summer and an urban center with a lot to do. Zhenya and I spent many late nights talking and eating (she’s a chef!) in Samara, and…

Alabama
I’ve been to Alabama twice. It’s funny because people outside of Alabama are like… why? It’s a humid and strangely beautiful place. But I also feel like an outsider the second I step foot there. I don’t feel like I could ever blend in, no matter how hard I try. But I guess another strange…

Texas Coast
I remember when I met my first college roommate, who is from Houston, and stupidly asked her, “Houston has an airport?” I’m pretty sure she alerted the authorities immediately because I knew an embarrassingly small amount about Texas. Houston is one of the largest cities in the United States. Growing up, I thought Houston was…

San Antonio
San Antonio was awesome! We’ve been here many times in the past, but it was the first time we flew here as a destination. Casey and I brought our cat there. It was cold and rainy the entire time we were there. That’s becoming my preferred weather. The first thing I did upon arriving was get…

Castle Rock State Park
Another beautiful day at a State Park, hunting for mycelium and breathing the fresh air. I think this park is too close to the city because it was quite crowded. Is that just an American thing – a crowded forest?

Los Angeles
I’ve visited Los Angeles many times as a kid with my family. I knew it for the beaches and Getty Museum, which was a memorable place for me as a kid. I finally got to go back, as an adult. I was in Los Angeles to reconnect with an old friend. She was working at…

Portland
Some of my best travels happen right when I quit a job. I remember when I quit my crappy retail sales associate job in Austin the day I bought a ticket to Long Beach. And with the latest trip, I quit a job and flew off to Portland that very night. I get so cooped…
