Title: Princess for the Day at Gyeongbukgung Palace
Date: 2019-09-28
Description: Gyeongbukgung Palace is centered in the heart of the city where visitors can take in the beautiful architecture and scenery of the palace grounds while also being dressed in traditional Korean style hanboks. Being able to walk around such a historic site in such beautiful clothes was such an incredible experience and truly felt like we were experiencing a moment in time of life in the Joseon dynasty.

Title: Magical Realism - Paris, France
Date: 2019-10-28
Description: The Dali museum was my favorite museum in Paris. It's located in Montmartre, which is personally the coolest area of Paris, and it is a tiny museum with Dali's best works of art. The melting clocks were basically everywhere on his works of art and I loved it so much it really inspired me more than I thought it would. He has such a way with Magical Realism and it really shows in all of his art pieces. He was also very ahead of his time and his work was very satirical to me which was inspiring. I have always had a tougher time connecting with art but all of his work really got me.

Title: Masai Tribe - Tanzania
Date: 2014
Description: This is a photo of the Masai Tribe that my group of volunteers and I had the opportunity to visit. They performed their traditional dance and song for us upon arrival, and then invited us into their household structures and informed us of their way of living. It was a very inspirational and eye-opening experience that I will never forget.

Title: Noodles - Italy
Date: 2019
Description: This was the best meal I had, a meal from a restaurant down the street from my apartment. I ate here a couple times, and every time, I just couldn't believe how lucky I was to be there, in Italy, eating pasta. I don't know if I'll ever be able to do something like this again, so I just knew I had to... savor the moment.

Title: Gwanghwamun - South Korea
Date: 2014
Description: This photo was taken on the first week of my one-year adventure in Seoul, South Korea. I wasn't sure what to expect of this huge mega city, but it just kept getting better. This photo is taken at the main gate of the palace called "Gyeongbok-gung" located nearby to Seoul's city hall. What astounded me about this palace is that from the inside, one can see the giant skyscrapers powering Korea's economy in the background. The mixture of contemporary and ancient architecture was truly astounding. The past of Korea's culture was contained in this small area of palace, while it's modern day culture was shown behind it. In this shot, I am capturing a bit of the former.

Title: "Karen Tribe" - Thailand
Date: 2019-07-15
Description: This moment took place while I was in the hill tribe village. I was completely mesmerized by this woman - her traditional beads, her head covering (which I learned stems from ancient Burmese traditions, as this village is very near to Burma), her traditional handwoven dress... It is inspiring to see how simply others live. It is inspiring to see the community that exists in these areas. What a privilege!
