MYA's phone diaries: ... like leaves in the fall.

Hola friends, I have been slowing down gears in certain directions and going full speed in others. I am currently on my way to Boston for the first time. Excited to reunite with some close friends and explore that city. Top of my list of to do is a Herb Ritts exhibit at the MFA. So stoked. :) 

If you had asked me four years ago where I would settle if I lived in the States, it would hands down be either NYC or somewhere in Southern California. But I think I fall more in love with D.C. each day that passes more than before. Living here still feels really fresh and exciting. There is so much to see and explore. So many subcultures. Art. History. Music! I thought I would share some sights and sounds from my phone from the past few weeks. I was lucky to catch some of my favourite musicians: Lianne La Havas, Mutemath and Haitus Kaiyote. I have a video of Nai Palm doing a cover of Chaka Khan's 'Ain't Nobody' impromptu. Will try to post it soon. 

Until then, I hope you take time to shed some gratitude for mama earth. Be humbled by how stunning she is always in her bare skin no matter the season. Go check out art somewhere in your 'hood. Support small bands that make real music. Visit a farmer's market or two. Give strong hugs without reservation. Kisses on both cheeks because you don't want nobody jealous. Hold doors for strangers. Say thank you. And stay on the right lane if you are not passing by.  I promise some verbose musings are coming soon. Until then, plein de bisous. xo
