So much to do in this wonderful state and this is just a short list!

The only thing better than the regular Rocky Mountains is the Rocky Mountains in full aspen autumn gold.

This is a map of Ol Pejeta Conservancy in Kenya, which is near Nanyuki. It is a wildlife preserve / national park home to Africa's greatest animals, and it's one of my favorite places on earth.

My favorite city in my home state of Texas. Austin is a hip little city with a relaxed atmosphere but not too big for it's pants. It's a foodie, art and music haven in the beautiful hill country.

A 2nd part to my previous constellation map, this time Spring & Summer - I decided to make this one brighter and full of stars. I always felt like the Summer skies were fuller of stars, but that could just be me :)

A good activity for kids during all of the World Cup action: Go Play Outside! Fancy equipment not needed ... use what you have. Cheer for any team you wish! (Yes, Canada did not qualify, but we are cheering anyways.)

One of my fondest memories was strolling in the gardens of Paris with my boyfriend at the time during our first date in Paris. I'm having a wedding celebration next month in Paris and wanted to share my love for the hidden gems often overlooked - Parks :). I'm excited to discover more beautiful parks and squares as I get lost in this wondrous city.

This is just the upper portion of a wall mural I made for a Haagen Dazs store in Jackson, WY. The original map is 12 ft wide by 7 ft high!

This is a map through memory lane, illustrating the most prominent sights & experiences between work - (Panjim- Goa), home (Porvorim) & travel (old Goa Churches, lazy beaches & Aguada fort). The best memories include long scooter rides by the Vagator beach road, after office gossip session at the Panjim river front, my Porvorim house, a sanctuary for insects in the monsoons, where my room-mate's doted over our little rescued cat Mimi and the most mysterious of all the "River Princess" ship wreck at the Candolim beach (2000-2013). The colour full buildings & the white Panjim church will forever live in my mind.

A map of my favourite childhood hangout. The park was a rare bit of nature in a crowded urban city. A place of many first experiences, it was there I learned of the rewards of looking closely.
