Escape to Bodega Bay

April 13, 2021 by Angela MatanoLeave a Comment

Moving from Los Angeles to the tiny town of Mendocino (population 855) in the middle of a pandemic turned out to be one of the most unusual decisions I have ever made. The natural beauty and tranquility act like a balm to the world’s troubles (politics! fires!), but, it should come as little surprise, meeting people while masked up and social distancing has proven difficult.

A Little Cabin in the Arctic Wilderness: The Journey of a Girl in Pursuit of Happiness in the Northernmost Permanent Settlement on the Planet

February 1, 2021 by Teh Chin Liang2 Comments

October has always been one of Cecilia's favorite months. The sky over Longyearbyen, Norway (78.2232° N, 15.6267° E) is painted in incredible shades of blue. Wisps of thick clouds roll over the awe-inspiring mountains, putting a mysterious veil over the peaks. Her mood is immediately elevated to a new height in this picture-perfect weather. It is the last month of the year she gets to soak up the sun before the two-and-a-half-month polar night … [Read more...]

From Dawn to Dusk, a Day in the Life in The Last Shangri-La

January 17, 2021 by Teh Chin Liang5 Comments

At the crack of dawn, the distant crow of a rooster forms a natural symphony with the mantra chanting from a nearby monastery, waking Dorji from his blissful dream. Rubbing his bleary eyes, he is grateful to be blessed with another brand new day in life. He heads to the kitchen to make himself his favorite breakfast - Akha, Suja, and Azey. Akha is a dough made from roasted whole wheat flour. Suja is a tea made by churning tea with butter and salt … [Read more...]
