Traveling Mexico III: Tulum Beach

It’s our last full day in Tulum, and we start the morning relaxed–wrapped in cotton-soft robes, enjoying warm mugs of coffee and bite-sized pastries on the front porch.

Traveling Mexico II: Tulum

I often arrive and depart places in the dark. There’s a simple reason for this: flights are more affordable when they’re getting you in and out of cities at dawn or in the middle of the night. When we arrive in Tulum, after a 2-hour journey from the closest airport in Cancun, the sky has melted from pastel blue to inky black. 

Traveling Mexico I: San Miguel de Allende

In the quiet darkness of the morning, my friends and I wait outside for our Uber driver to reach us. We’re dangerously close to missing our bus, so I’m impatient as I watch the tiny black car on Tolu’s phone screen inch slowly toward us.

My Weekend in Portland, Oregon

“Today has been so beautiful”, the text reads in bold letters on my Notes app. The day is already over as I write, so I type quickly, trying not to forget the details that inspired that opening sentence. 

Summer Break: Toronto

As I continue to have a growing family of loved ones scattered across the world, I hope that travel remains a piece of the thread that pulls us together.
