travel is so fun and always an opportunity to learn but intention makes all the difference. where you decide to spend your time, who you decide to speak to, the restaurants you decide to support… makes all the difference in your experience and how you connect with the place 💫

📍The POST - Houston, TX

Jan ’24: No clue how to celebrate my birthday.
Dec ’24: Photos I took in Japan are now on display in Houston—two places I’d never been before this year.

Trust the process ❤️

People are hating on Spotify wrapped this year as if last year wasn’t atrocious? I can’t lie, I like my lil AI month descriptions 😂

as we navigate a new season, a new year, and even shifts in the world around us, remember: the only thing you truly have control over is yourself. embrace the change, and trust the journey.

new youtube video on accepting change is up now 💛

Luna Luna opens today (Nov 20) in Hudson Yards, NYC 🗽💫

A beautiful reconstruction of the 1987 amusement park started by André Heller, inviting over 30 visionary artists such as Dalí and Basquiat to design rides, games + attractions. Inspiring in so many ways - a must see exhibit ✨

I just shared a Youtube video about my first personal photo project exploring language and identity with a focus on the word "Habesha" 📸🇪🇷🇪🇹✨

Conversations about this word precede the internet and I'm excited to hear how folks respond to the project 🫶🏾

Tumblr and Twitter were my go to apps in high school - now I’m thinking Blue Sky and Substack are going to give me the same satisfaction in this new chapter of life. It’s giving growth 🤌🏾
