Untrodden Ways

1 of 5 of the most intellectually stimulating books I read in the last decade (2010-2019) just in case you are looking for books to read in 2020. Sapiens: The History of Mankind. (Non-fiction) This book was paradigm shifting for me. It changed me in so many ways. It is an exceptional, thought provoking & self-reflective book on human history. I would not recommend this for anyone with less than an open mind. It is not exactly religion-friendly, but it is intelligent, captivating at the same time entertaining. #books #personalreadinglist #reading #sapiens #yuvalnoahharari https://www.instagram.com/p/B8BU7S4AduI1q3xV1uwWbgNrcgEz5CgQzAq3X40/?igshid=4p3j1lseizsu

I’ve seen more impressive mountains (the Alps included), but there’s something absolutely beautiful about a mountain that stands alone. It doesn’t overwhelm you with it grandness. It simply unapologetically commands you to look & admire. It’s the most serene feeling. #mthood #portland #oregon #travelphotography #portlandjapanesegarden #mountains #beautiful #majestic_earth_ #instapic https://www.instagram.com/p/Bu7dJA_AbAi/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=1tx9lr123p7v8
