NY IS HOT!

seriously on fire. temperatures here are threw the roof, and for me this means. get my butt out there and into gear.


pick up a skateboard/ bike / basketball/ frisbee/ yoga mat / surfboard/ hoola-hoop whatever your mode of physical activity and SWEAT... yes,hardcore sweat.

My inner tomboy relishes in all it's summer glory. I can't wait to try new sports, lace up my new nike's and just groove and use this glorious city as my playground. From yoga in central park, to skate parks in the east village, to learning how to surf at rockaway beach...

I have been living in black denim shorts/ loosey-goosey tanks / old gladiators-TOMS and converse/ my panama hat...and a smile.

it's the SUMMER FOR LOVE GUYS.

this is all i want.




"It doesn't interest me what you do for a living
I want to know what you ache for,
and if you dare to dream of meeting your heart's longing.
It doesn't interest me how old you are.
I want to know if you will risk looking like a fool for love,
for your dreams,
for the adventure of being alive.
It doesn't interest me what planets are squaring your moon.
I want to know if you have touched the center of your own sorrow,
if you have been opened by life's betrayals
or have become shriveled and closed from fear of further pain!
I want to know if you can sit with pain, mine or your own,
if you can dance with wildness
and let the ecstasy fill you to the tips of your fingers and toes
without cautioning us to be careful, to be realistic,
or to remember the limitations of being human.
It doesn't interest me if the story you're telling me is true.
I want to know if you can disappoint another to be true to yourself,
if you can bear the accusation of betrayal and not betray your own soul.
I want to know if you can be faithful and therefore be trustworthy.
I want to know if you can see beauty even when its not pretty every day,
and if you can source your life from God's presence.
I want to know if you can live with failure, yours and mine,
and still stand on the edge of a lake
and shout to the silver of the full moon, "Yes!"
It doesn't interest me to know where you live or how much money you have.
I want to know if you can get up after the night of grief and despair,
weary and bruised to the bone,
and do what needs to be done for the children.
It doesn't interest me who you are,
how you came to be here.
I want to know if you will stand in the center of the Fire with me
and not shrink back.
It doesn't interest me where or what or with whom you have studied.
I want to know what sustains you from the inside when all else falls away.
I want to know if you can be alone with yourself,
and if you truly like the company you keep in the empty moments.

girl crush

elisa sednaoui.

now if she is not the definition of a true woman i don't know what is.
italian born// parisian + egyptian raised// residing in nyc.
and with a heart to travel like my own.
she is definitely an inspiration.

not only she is she breath -takingly beautiful, but what exudes from her pores is an intelligence and grace that simply can't be taught.

and this, now this is what i love about her : : : plus secretly wish for myself...


Where do you see yourself living in 10 years? New York?
Time will tell. But my dream is to find a piece of land lost somewhere in the nature, maybe by the sea, preferably in southern America, where to raise my very big family. Live a simple life and take pictures, read, write, think, have my garden,... ......maybe not too far from an airport so I’ll still be able to run around the world if I feel like it !


As Paulo Coelho says in ‘The Alchemist”, “Shepherds, like seamen and like traveling salesmen always found a town where there was someone who could make them forget the joys of carefree wandering" .

speaking of books::: WHAT ARE YOU MUST HAVE SUMMER READS?
