Do You Hike?
Do you love to hike? Do you hike alone? With friends? Or with family? Hiking is like a exercise. Some don't think so. If you really think about it, you're climbing over fallen trees, climbing moderate mountains, walking down trails and all such of stuff. To some, like serial killers, it's a place to murder or bury a body. Me? It's a nature palace where I can smoke ganja and not get judgement from animals and spirits that roam there. I also, before I became a mother, used to swim in the river, nude, in an isolated area. Nature is a very kind place.

The Little Girl Who Finally Saw the Stones
My mama said to me on occasion, "There is so much more to life outside of Rogers, Arkansas." I remember when she would say this, I would just stare at her, then stare at the ground, shaking my head while sipping a juice pouch, and continue to play on the broken-down, highly dangerous tire-swing in the backyard.

Taking a Cruise
Why going on a cruise is worth it: Have you ever been frightened to go on a cruise? Do you want to try it but you're not sure if it is worth the money? I am sure people have many questions regarding their decision on vacationing on a cruise. Back in 2014, my family and I went on a five day cruise to the Bahamas. This was an overall great experience for all of us. Traveling and the cost of a cruise can be worrisome, but if you have a budget set out, and the extra money available, it is worth it.

Valuable Life Lessons That I Learned Growing Up in Vancouver
Looking back at this post, I realize that some of these might sound a bit... obvious. But how often does one remind themselves to do these simple yet excruciatingly difficult things and eventually find themselves not actually doing them until it's too damn late?! It is precisely those 'ugh–damnit' moments that encouraged me to write about the valuable-yet-simple life lessons that living and growing up in Vancouver has taught me over the years. An umbrella-in-the-face nudge, just to remind you, if you will. So roll out your yoga mat, strap in and channel your inner Buddha; here are some of my most valuable life lessons I learned growing up in Vancouver.

Traveling in Your City
When I was planning long weekend trips or spring break vacations during school my constant travel destination was New York City. This Big Apple is home to thousands upon thousands of entertaining activities that could captivate even the most traditional stay-at-home introvert; naturally, I was drawn to its stimulating adventures. Using any excuse that I could to fly away to its bright lights, I had then decided after the twelfth trip that my home was left in the streets of this city. I picked up and moved to the east side of Manhattan after graduation and have been here ever since exploring my home. Exploring the place that you live in can be tricky at times. Your work week can consist of a nine to five job, where at the end of the day you would like to relax and unwind, and your weekends tend to be spent recovering from the night before. After this pattern becomes more present you wonder when you stopped exploring? This is a pattern that I have found in my time being in the city and here are a few practices that even I need to remember when moving to your dream vacation spot.

Planning a Trip to Tokyo Disney
To start I have just started planning this trip a couple of weeks ago. I am writing this because I cannot find a blog or a vlog that discuses the coast of traveling to Disney Tokyo. I have seen some on where to stay, how to get there, what to buy, but never how much you should save to go there.
