"Life isn't as serious as the mind makes it out to
"Life isn't as serious as the mind makes it out to be." - Eckhart Tolle With all the stress and bad news we're being bombarded with recently, I hope you're making time to have a little bit of fun too! It's never been more important to look after ourselves and practice self-care. Focus on what you can control, and find ways to make yourself happy. I love you all 💛

"Smile, it's the most pleasant five letter word."
"Smile, it's the most pleasant five letter word." -Gaur Gopal Das The more often we smile, the more opportunities life gives us to have something to smile about! I know it's not easy but we should always make sure that we live our lives in such a way as to minimize and eliminate "Dukkha," the Sanskrit word which translates to "stress" and "suffering." If your present situation is subjecting to to Dukkha I recommend taking a long look and seeing which things you need to change to reawaken to your natural state of being. Life shouldn't be about struggle, whether work or love, it should all flow naturally.

Seldom a week goes by where I don't think about Ne
Seldom a week goes by where I don't think about Nepal and miss it! In particular, I miss the afternoons and evenings where I would walk down to Fewa Lake to sit still in silence and be alone with my thoughts pondering about life and how magical it is. I would listen to my favourite Tupac tracks on loop and let my mind fly off like an eagle high above the Himalayas surrounding me 😆 Special memories that I will always treasure. Pokhara is one place where I feel like I could settle down, a place where I feel perfectly content and the weeks could blissfully pass into months and the months into years.

"And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of
"And so with the sunshine and the great bursts of leaves growing on the trees, I had that familiar conviction that life was beginning over again with the summer." - F Scott Fitzgerald Hope you all are making the most of things and enjoying your summer! Every day is a new chance to begin again! Live today as if you may die tomorrow! 🤗 Photo: hiking through a bamboo forest to the double dragon waterfall, near Sun Moon Lake in Nantou County.

"To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't n
"To be beautiful means to be yourself. You don't need to be accepted by others. You need to accept yourself." -Thich Nat Hanh Throughout my life I've always tried to treat all I meet with honesty and fairness. I don't judge a person by their status, income, gender, race, or nationality. If you want to judge me then that is your choice but I am secure in who I am and it's not your acceptance that I need. Photo: overlooking the ancient homeland of Vietnam near Tam Coc village.

"To seek is to suffer. To seek nothing is bliss."
"To seek is to suffer. To seek nothing is bliss." -Bodhidharma 🧘‍♂️ Sunday afternoon in the Confucianist style serenity gardens and meditation chambers of the Marble Mountains outside of Danang. ⛰️

"The enlightened soul finds bliss in the Atman (se
"The enlightened soul finds bliss in the Atman (self within) and wants nothing else. Cravings torment the heart. Craving for happiness brings suffering in its wake." -Swami Turiyananda Photo: blessed with perfect weather for a weekend trip to Son Tra peninsula in Danang. Turns out being stuck in a subtropical paradise while waiting out a global pandemic in a virus free country isn't too bad 🤗

"If you take one step towards God, he will take te
"If you take one step towards God, he will take ten steps towards you." -Unknown Enjoying the beautiful lily fields near Hang Mua in Ninh Binh, Vietnam before twilight and feeling alive and grateful! 🙏✨

"Always remember that the future comes one day at
"Always remember that the future comes one day at a time." -Dean Acheson People often like to ask me what my goals are and I never really have an answer for them. The truth is, I accomplished everything I wanted to in my life in my 20s. My goals nowadays are very simple -- to help people and enjoy each day. I still make progress on the things I want to do, but I'm perfectly happy to do it as a leisurely pace. I've learned from others older and more wiser than me that you can enjoy the journey instead of being focused only on reaching the destination. Sometimes you never reach it anyway, and that's fine too 👋

"After every storm are clear skies. I believe in y
"After every storm are clear skies. I believe in you, you're doing great, we'll get through this together." Photo: taking a day to explore the ancient city complex of Lalitpur, Nepal.

After a long day of travel through narrow mountain
After a long day of travel through narrow mountain passes I arrived in the Holy Land shortly before twilight. This is the place where Siddhartha Gautama, who would be known as the Buddha, came into the physical world. I will never forget the fantastic blue, orange, red, yellow, and purple hues of the sunset that night that I witnessed from the boat.

"The yogi who faithfully discharges his responsibi
"The yogi who faithfully discharges his responsibilities, without personal motive or attachment, treads the sure path of enlightenment." -Mahavatar Babaji Life is good! I took the motorcycle this weekend to the village of Tam Coc and had the chance to explore the ancient homeland of Vietnam. 🏞️ This photo is near the summit of Hang Mua, a viewpoint on the outskirts of the town. Feel free to ask me if you guys have any questions about traveling in Vietnam 🤗
