An Enchanted Life - piha, new zealand

For more reasons than I can count I feel blessed. True, there have been more than a few wrinkles. But the greatest lesson has been how absolutely enchanted a life it's been so far and how much I want to capture the most of every day...all the good, all the bad, all that's beautiful and all that is sad.

My journey has been one of curiosity and optimism seeking new adventures, finding beauty and I've been supported to live a full life.

Raised by smart, funny, supportive people who encouraged us to follow our dreams even if that meant that we dug ditches. My parents were firm in their expectations that whatever we did we should strive to be the best at whatever it was that we loved. We spent a lot of time with them and knew the ins and out of their work (which they loved) but they left this earth much too soon, though my brothers and I feel their presence.

This is dedicated to them and to everyone who dares to live a full life, it's hard but I try. This is an exploration and expression of the things I love and the communication of my love of expression, design, travel, and all the beautiful things that our senses allow us to take in.

Bon voyage!
