My office building just looks like a typical high rise on the way east towards Downtown. Ever since I started working there, I always saw escalators and stairs descending far underground. Last year, I finally got the chance to take the escalators down to take the Metro for the first time. In LA, I have […]

The weather in LA has been beautiful! Sunny days just naturally make me happier. This must mean its time to spend days outdoors and at the beach! That’s why I decided to post a beach picture today – this is from Laguna Beach as the sun was setting. Have a great day everyone!

Encore is a lovely hotel! It could be one of my favorites in Vegas (along with the Wynn and theVenetian). The view from our room was of the Las Vegas strip that never sleeps. Great view! We stayed there our last night in Vegas. Wish I didn’t have an early morning flight so that I […]

I was drawn towards the print on the fabric of this dress (and of course I bought the dress!). At first glance, its odd to see planes mixed with roses, but I think it works! I mean, don’t you think those just logically go together?!

A famous LA landmark that one day hosted celebrities and several US Presidents, The Alexandria Hotel was by a busy part of Spring Street at Downtown LA Art Walk. It was built in 1906 by John Parkinson, responsible for other famous LA landmarks like the Los Angeles City Hall and Union Station. The Hotel is […]

Last summer, I was in London for the first time since my study abroad back in 2005. It was great revisiting and seeing London as a woman in the working world (and with a better camera!). I think it made me realize that while I’m older, I’m still the same person that loves exploring the […]

Photo ideas haven’t come easily as of late. I’m having a hard time thinking of photos to post/photograph so it seems as if I’ve only been posting every other day. I know…it’s a daily photo blog, so I really should be consistent. You know, in April, it will be one year since I started this […]

Catching up on missing photo diary posts! Sorry for not being daily! I came upon this book of inspirational and empowering quotes in a Jamba Juice. The book is called “Live Good”. Liked this quote a lot! The small quote on the left says, “If you risk nothing, then you risk everything”.

Downtown Santa Cruz is easily recognized by the clock tower at the beginning of the street. The clouds were gray, signaling rainy hours to come, but luckily it stayed dry while we were there!
