    Road Trip to Redwood National Park

  • Maui, Hawaii

    Maui, Hawaii

    We originally thought about visiting Hawaii over the holidays because flights were pretty reasonable. However, as soon as we looked for housing between Christmas and New Year’s we realized the only options left were $10,000/night. So we made alternate plans to visit West Texas instead. But as soon as we did, Alex’s friends Chris and…

    I read 56 books in 2019. Here are my favorites.

    56 books is the most I’ve ever read in a year, almost double the 31 I read in 2018. My basic strategy was to convert some of the endless hours of scrolling through social media into time reading books instead. And as always, I check out all of these books as ebooks from the library–…

  • Sydney, Australia

    Sydney, Australia

    After hours of delayed flights from Melbourne, we finally reached Sydney, Australia! This was the whole inspiration for the Australia trip: to visit Tiffany and Greg who had moved to Sydney half a year prior, and of course Howard, whose wedding was the reason I visited in 2016. Our friend Tim had also just moved…
