Started my birthday travelling 11 hours from pokhara up up to chame to start our annapurna circuit trek 🌞🗻 a few pictures on the road: an unexpected pit stop when the jeep broke down, 5am birthday banana muffin 🎂, on the way to besishahar, a little drawing on the receipt notebook from the restaurant owner’s daughter, sardined sitting on top of each on the way to chame, the road i, the road ii, arrival at chame 🥹, double blanketed at our teahouse, a 6am prozac boosted birthday song at the bus park 🤪🥳🤧♌️😳 (at Chame, Nepal) https://www.instagram.com/p/ChNWDMFq2uO/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Unboxing the YA novel I illustrated 🎁 written by fellow vancouver native @emilyseowrites 🇨🇦 i had SO much fun working on this project, pulling from my own memory archives of growing up in coquitlam (especially the days of msn messenger) and the weird strange growing pains of puberty 😳 #teenbooks #yafiction #childrensbooks #teenfiction #yabooks #yanovels #illustration #illustratorsofinstagram #illustratorsoninstagram https://www.instagram.com/p/CejluJUuVxY/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

5 years ago i was on a 6 hour van ride from thailand to the cambodia border. On the van i met @sridharpappu his sister Suguna and their impeccably dressed father even in the sticky se asia heat. Recently made this piece for them of the papa in his younger days surrounded by his books and papers. Happy to continue to hold these connections in this big small little world.
