What it’s Like to Live Under a Rock
People often ask me, albeit rhetorically, "Do you live under a rock?". Of course, none of them have ever expected the guileless "Yes" which I respond with. I can’t really blame them though. How are they supposed to know I live in a house that looks like it’s been taken directly from the set of The Hobbit?

Veni, Vidi, Vici
My name is Sierra and like so many people, I’ve always dreamed of traveling the world. The thing about dreams is that you can spend so much time wishing that it becomes easier to think it’s impossible over time. Everyone experiences it, this dream deferred.

Peace Among The Peaks
The term "Home" is a multi-faceted word; going beyond the simple definition of a 'permanent place of residence among a family household'. This concept of having four walls, and roof over your head, diminishes the true meaning of the word. To me, it is the wave of inescapable bliss that invades every cell of your body when you realize: home has always resided within our own souls. Known as ‘Querencia’, it is the “place in which one’s strength is drawn, where one feels at home; the place where you are your most authentic self”.

A Leap of Faith
12:12 pm I am still in my bathtub, wondering how my voice got so great in the bathroom. The karaoke version of Radioactive by Imagine Dragon is playing along with my humming vocal. I know I should get going. Class starts at 12:30 pm and I am 7.54 kilometers away from school, naked in the water.

The Harbor of My Journeying Soul
When I was young, my father used to work at the local beach making sure the campgrounds were in top conditions for the tourists. On one of those occasions, my father found a book on the sand, forgotten by its owner. The book was called Tigana, by Guy Gavriel Kay.
