It was also a year of transformation for the blog. With the help of several wonderful Kickstarter backers, the first season of 6 Months to Live made its debut! The blog got a…

Hot Tub Ambassador

"Buenos dìas! Buenos dìas!" said the full-faced smiling boy, as he bobbed around the hot tub in his turtle and seahorse covered flota. He made his rounds to all the Mexican, American, and Canadian guests at the El Cid, the marina/hotel I'm staying at in Mazatlan, waving everyone hello before pausing on a manmade rock to speak with me. Rock where Diego and…

The Adventure Begins (Again!)

I just finished a journal I began in August. At the time I was living in San Francisco, going through the motions. Job, apartment, and friends were all good, but it felt like something was missing. I took a “date with Jackie” day, which essentially means spending most of the day alone doing whatever I feel like. Most of those…

The Best Adventures Begin with Choice

Most epic stories or adventures begin with a dramatic life change. Elizabeth Gilbert, author of Eat, Pray, Love, decided to go on an incredible journey to Italy, India, and Indonesia after a devastating break up. Elliot's life was completely turned upside down when E.T. arrived. Queen Elizabeth I took the throne as England's first sole female monarch after the death of her…

Cleaning House: Making Room for a New Year

The Chinese have a beautiful tradition for Spring Festival, or Chinese New Year. Each family cleans their house thoroughly before the end of the year.

Deep Thoughts at the DMV

During my 4 hours at the California DMV (yes, it really took that long), I had time to think. After much deliberating, I decided that it made sense to call San Francisco home and trade in my Georgia peach for a California girl. I was surprised at how difficult this was for me. How do we identify ourselves? "It's a…

Day 6: Why Not?

How many times have we been told at some point in our lives, "You can't do that!"? Like most children, I often responded with, "Why Not?"
