Just me and you today, Phillip Island, you hot babe!

A group of 30 Chinese tourists, one by one, got their photos taken with multiple cameras in front of this little house. So I felt obligated to wait and take my shot. Aussie lesson no4: this house is one of the hottest models in town.

Today I drove for the first time and it was more confusing than I imagined but I got this!😓😤 Aussie lesson no3: everything is upside down

Today I biked to witness my first Australian sunset by the ocean. It was a first step for me to ease into that swapped traffic situation. It was glorious but #aussielesson no2 - the longer you get lost in the sunset, the harder it will be to find your way back home, cuz lights along the roads are non existent. 🙈🚲

Aussie lesson no1: don't apply for your visa at the last minute cuz your trip may never happen. I was lucky enough to get it literally hours before my flight. So I started believing in miracles. And I'm grateful to call this place my new office for the next couple of months. Thank u @kskands for being the sweetest host 😘

When I first moved to Chicago, I drove around downtown and this exact street made me feel really small but also powerful and protected. I can't explain why, but after all these years every time I'm biking through it, I still feel exactly the same way.

Where rich and young collide

I love the freedom of my mobile office

Best buds.

I visited Saint Louis for the first time and as always, checked out the food scene and these by far were my favorites: Olio and Lulu's Local Eatery. Yum town!

Airbnbing is a big part of the way I travel. I love supporting what they do, and see how creative the owners get with their places. Everybody wins ;)

Life is moving forward yet this place remains so constant, and it's weirdly comforting. #hometown

Road tripping, listening to the local radio, singing along to the songs I haven't heard in years, with each one taking me to places impossible to see through the window.

Here's to new years and new beginnings and picking up where we left it ;)

Food conference in Chicago. Learning about green diet from Yumuniverse and food styling from Johanna Lowe. www.tastetalks.com

What a gift it is to have a silky powerful voice, hitting every note with an effortless precision, with such confidence, such energy. I imagine it must be such a freeing experience to know that with every note you sing you can touch so many. How I envy that!

I was lucky to attend 2 days of Brand New Conference. It felt like a bucket of ice water thrown in my face - a little painful but mostly refreshing and awakening. I left gaining another level of appreciation for being a designer, and for those who've learned to turn this skill into something meaningful and unique. Yay creativity, I will be your slave till forever.
