#Baku

Parading in a World Made of Clay

Parading in a World Made of Clay

Mingling in Baku has been one of the hardest things, and not just because I’m usually the tallest person when entering a room. I am obviously a Westerner, a woman alone finding a bit too much joy in her meals

  • I don’t know who said that Winter is coming. They were clearly not living in CA.
  • One of the most impressive, most imaginative buildings I’ve ever seen, St. Basil in Moscow, made my inner child scream with joy and ask for the crayons 😉 . . . #russia #moscow #stbasilscathedral #redsquare #kremlin #greekswhotravel #womenwhotravelsolo #worldtraveler #passionpassport #wanderlust
  • I will always be grateful for the strangers that so kindly offer to take a picture for me, and for the short interactions we have. It’s always a nice excuse to meet people #ontheroad even if these acquaintances are almost always short lived. Even when the pictures are not the best, they’re some of the most precious #souvenirs I bring home with me. . . . #stpetersburg #churchofthesavioronblood #womenwhotravelsolo #greekswhotravel #fromrussiawithlove
  • Hi #europe I have missed you. . . . #estonia #tallinn #womenwhotravelsolo #greekswhotravel #travelestonia
  • Too tall for a hobbit, too unwise for an elf. I’ll settle for a wandering human. . . . #newzealand #hobbiton #lordoftherings #notallwhowanderarelost #travelust #greekswhotravel #womenwhotravelsolo #whereislina #latergram
  • I barely posted anything about my last trip, and here I am planning my next. Oh well… cheers to 50 countries, time to set sail for the next 50 and beyond 🌍🌎
  • Long shadows, tiny humans.
  • My creature. My companion. My love. My midnight snuggles. My girl.
  • Part of the art of traveling, at least for me, is spending my money thoughtfully on experiences that serve both the community I am visiting, and my pocket. I rarely buy gifts for family/friends/myself; one of the things I love splurging though on in the recent years is buying local art. Not everything I own is unique or expensive, but everything I own has its own story of how it was acquired. The other thing I love collecting when traveling is postcards, which at the end of my visit I send to myself with little memories from my time there, and love notes. I have turned the walls of my home into storytelling surfaces, surrounding me with the memories of dear times past, and with excitement for times yet to be experienced.

Part of the art of traveling, at least for me, is spending my money thoughtfully on experiences that serve both the community I am visiting, and my pocket. I rarely buy gifts for family/friends/myself; one of the things I love splurging though on in the recent years is buying local art. Not everything I own is unique or expensive, but everything I own has its own story of how it was acquired. The other thing I love collecting when traveling is postcards, which at the end of my visit I send to myself with little memories from my time there, and love notes.
