Alone in the world

Escape

Week #9

Hey!, I feel like I can’t do May, I wish we can skip this month and we can go straight to June so I can be outside and go to the beach on a sunny June day. * * * Update, last week of May got a little better, still craving for that Sunny June days tho * * *

I’m sharing this photo of this beautiful place in Big Sur, Ca., McWay falls! As you all probably know I live in New York and I love it, it’s been my home for the past 8 years but I also love California, in 2019 I spent a lot of time there. Mc Way falls was part of my itinerary from a road trip I did on September and it didn’t disappoint me, I got to this specific spot right before sunset, I felt like I wasn’t precisely there but on a different place, maybe in a “Distant Island” per se, is so amazing!

Going back to my travels photos, helps me so much when I feel a little down because I revive those moments and they make me remember how lucky I am sometimes for many reasons. I want to physycally escape somewhere away from here but I can’t right now so in the meantime i’m just mentally escaping to those places I adore like Big Sur.

Hasta pronto!,

Teresa.

DIA:Beacon

DIA: Beacon is one of the most awesome places in New York if you’re into art and escapades like me. I love it!

Take the Metro North train ride from Grand Central (is only $35 dls round trip to Beacon) is about 1:30 min that feels like 30 minutes really.

I’m sharing just a few photos of what you can see in there but there’s way more! too bad the lower level was closed this time but I guess i’ll have to come back when they reopen it.

My always favorites: Richard Serra and Mary Corse, but this time I was completely seduced by Sam Gilliam’s work.

YOSEMITE NATIONAL PARK

Yosemite National Park was a last minute addition to my Grand Canyon/California road trip I made at the end of September, oh!!! i’m so glad I went!

I spent 1 day and a half there, stayed in Upper Pines Campground, I was lucky enough to find availability with a short time in advance, make sure you book this a few months before you go.

Got to meet “El Capitán”, “Half Dome” and the guts of this beautiful place, i’m sad I couldn’t see the falls and the actual lake at “Mirror Lake” but at that time of the year the water is gone… Best time to visit Yosemite should be Spring/Summer. I was happy to be there end of September because the weather was amazing, sun and nice breeze.

Enjoy my video, leave a comment if you like.

Bye!
