Somewhere out there, a #LisaFrank dolphin was flipping through this #sunset. 💜🧡💛

Reality: this was the day after my dog's surgery & I was afraid to leave him alone for long, but I saw this happening so made the best from our backyard!

Sunsets, palm trees + nature's finest - wrapping up January with a recap of my top four of the month! Thank you for the likes and kind words, I'm floored by the love. 💜 Anyone else do monthly recaps?

Some things — like waves and sunsets — remain beautifully unchanged.

Once an #island dreamer, always an island dreamer.

Step into #paradise just ten steps off the ferry at Cruz Bay, St. John #USVI

Tonight's #sunset brought to you by what must've been a lot of air traffic throughout the day...

Lots of contrails in the sky lit up yellow-orange against blue at sunset. Small pond reflecting the sky in the foreground.

Swing by the sea, where the waves meet the sky,
Come sit for a while, let your troubles drift by.

A swing by the sea is a call to be free,
Let go of the world, and just simply be.

A local landmark known as the #standingstones of #Barbados - I was lucky to meet the artist, Philip King who came out almost every day and added to or rebuilt his fallen stones. A master of patience and balance!

Local Landmark known as the Standing Stones of Barbados. The artist, Philip King, was a former dancer - he came out almost every night to rebuild his stone structures when they had fallen or add new ones to the collection, making it an always changing scene. I was lucky enough to meet him one night and watch him in action - an absolute master of patience and balance. Photo is of one of the standing stones in front of a vibrant sunset with beach in background.

Every sunset has a story, and every photo is how we choose to remember it!

Thank you for the love on last night's sunset! It was one of my favs from #Barbados, but another night of too many clouds here means another trip through the archives. Same group of #palmtrees, different #sunset!

Sunsets have been bland here this week so I'll just relive this view from #Barbados instead. Oh how I miss living across the street from this!

After we did the Tongariro Alpine Crossing, we decided to spend the next day relaxing and recovering at Wairakei Terraces & Thermal Spa in Taupo. Would love to be back there soaking up the warmth right about now!

I'm rarely awake for #sunrise, but my pup woke me up to go out early today and I'm just gonna assume he did it for my benefit because what a stunner ahead of the incoming storm today!

My dad has always admired #Alaska and getting to take him there and experience the #HubbardGlacier up close with him back in August is a memory that I will cherish forever. Also never realized that Alaska would have so many #rainbows!

Continuing to relive memories and pretend I'm somewhere warmer! Did you know the #island of #Antigua is said to have 365 beaches - one for every day of the year!

This cold snap has me missing life in #Barbados like nothing else! This photo was from my favorite #beach on the whole #island - postcard perfect Bottom Bay!

Still sad to be missing out on a month in #NewZealand, but my puppy is recovering from surgery incredibly well and I'm getting a chance to relive memories from the archives. Last March we did the #Tongariro Alpine Crossing (aka #MountDoom #LOTR). Incredible hike and experience! #landscape #travel

Well, sometimes life throws a curve ball. Was supposed to be on a plane to NZ tonight but instead I spent the night at the emergency vet with my 14yo best friend, Orion. My heart hurts in so many ways as he heads into surgery this AM, but I'll never regret giving him a fighting chance.

Wonder how many times I can convince myself to do this hike again while we're in #NewZealand! Mount Taranaki (specifically the view from the Pouakai Ranges) is one of my favorite places on earth.

Just #NewZealand looking like it walked straight out of a fairy tale again! This is Marokopa Falls, which was about 45 minutes down a very windy road that my stomach didn't much agree with, but the view was absolutely worth it!

Been a looong time since I've shot a show but looking through the archives definitely makes me miss it. Shot #palayeroyale at #sonictemple music fest in 2019, had no idea at the time they'd go on to become one of my all time faves. Maybe time to get back into it!

Spent a month traveling around the North Island of New Zealand in March - we did a ton, but wish we had planned for more time at some of our stops. Didn't get to do the full loop of Smugglers Bay near Whangārei Heads but would love to go back here!

I know the scenery in #NZ is hard to beat, but when a friend invites you to walk around their #cow farm to take photos, how could I resist?!

PS. Never realized what dirty creatures cows are before this day!

Looking forward to returning to one of my favorite places in the world next month - the Pouakai Tarns up on Mount Taranaki, New Zealand. Two and a half hours up non-stop stairs, entirely worth every step!
