I feel elated. The stress is lifting, the weight i I feel elated. The stress is lifting, the weight in my chest is lessening. Is this what joy feels like? 🙌🏻

I won’t hold back any of my joy because I believe, I KNOW, that even the people who voted for Trump in this election will be better off with Biden as president.

And to top it off, today is a historic day for America — our first female Vice President, an intelligent and strong woman who is Black and Indian-American. Our girl from the Bay. YES KAMALA YES!!! I’m thrilled for Joe as well, a good man who has devoted himself to public service, bipartisanship, and to being an empathetic and kind leader.

I invite you to join me in celebrating this historic day!!!! So many of us can now breathe easier, and take the next steps toward healing this deeply wounded and divided country.

A win for democracy is a win for us all. That alone is worth breaking out the champagne for 🥂🇺🇸
Woke up to a huge wakeup call that I wish everyone Woke up to a huge wakeup call that I wish everyone in America could experience. It’s now past noon in San Francisco and it feels like the middle of the night. This picture is unedited, but the camera picked up more light than is present. It’s still so dark in my house that I can’t get around without the lights on.

We’ve gotten used to seeing and breathing smoke, but I never considered that there would be so much it could block out the sun almost entirely.

Understand that for us this comes after months of highly unusual weather patterns, including lightning storms and heat waves. The climate emergency is more urgent and dire than any of us realize.

I feel strongly that this is a preview of the future of this planet without serious and immediate change.
We need ACTION on #ClimateChange NOW.

PLEASE look into sustainable practices for your home and VOTE like your life and future generations depend on it. Don’t wait until seas rise or smoke blocks out the sun where you are.

Popping in to say hi 👋🏻 it’s a strange tim Popping in to say hi 👋🏻 it’s a strange time to be thinking about or advocating for travel. I’ll admit I’ve been more focused on things like the election and the effects of climate change and the coronavirus as of late. I don’t currently have any travel plans (!) but my heart goes out to everyone who has to cancel or reconsider upcoming trips. Gentle reminder that everyone has different considerations for why they do or do not travel, and when.
Here’s a soothing photo from beautiful Sicilia. 💛

If I have one tip for visiting Kyoto, it’s to ma If I have one tip for visiting Kyoto, it’s to make sure to stay in the city itself. Wander at times and into places overlooked by most.
It is tempting to stay in very nearby Osaka (which is a lot of fun, and can be cheaper) and/or stick to the well-defined tourist trail — but I’ve found that the off-peak hours offer the best experiences there. Unlike in most cities, for me it’s the quiet moments and peaceful respites that bring Kyoto to life.

Japan’s art and museums are consistently some of Japan’s art and museums are consistently some of my favorites in the world. They even have an “art island” (Naoshima!)
Even if art isn’t at the top of your list while traveling, I highly suggest checking some out while in Japan. Anyone have a favorite there to share?
