My 28th year has come to and end, and what a year it was! It started in my second country, Kenya, with Irene, Faith and David visiting the members of Giwa IDP Camp, going on a mini-safari and giving out shoes to the Dust Babies of Kikopey. At 28 I became an Aunt and helped to [...]

Cold day, hot coffee at City Grounds

"Torres del Paine Farewell" The fall colors in April make the Patagonian landscape even more impressive and add to the remote feeling one gets in a place like that.

"La Turista" I have yet to unveil most of my images from my trip to South America this past April, but I couldn't help but post this one of my friend, Dana. This image resonates with me because it's a different sort of travel photography. Rather than telling the story of the local people or [...]
