The first half of this year was such an exhausting whirlwind. I was all over the planet, and didn’t really stop to take a breath until September hit. Autumn, for me, was a chance to appreciate the monotony and stability that come with routine — things I typically take for granted. I cooked more, I spent […]

If you haven’t read them yet, part one is here, and part two is here. We arrived in Pyin Oo Lwin early in the morning.

This was a damn good year for internet writing. I found some great reads on my favorite news outlets and through Twitter, as usual, but Medium also became one of my favorite places to gain some insight about how others view the world. Long story short, I found no shortage of thought-provoking pieces to read this year. In […]
