Art Inspired Travel, Sarajevo

In Sarajevo, history and art breathe together. Every street holds a story, every gallery a reminder that creativity can survive — and even bloom — through unimaginable hardship.

Artists are vital witnesses and truth-tellers, able to cut through politics & denial to reveal the human cost of injustice. Through their work, they preserve memory, provoke reflection, & challenge the narratives that allow prejudice to grow—reminding us of our shared humanity before it’s too late.

On the road to Sarajevo today… already imagining how the shapes, colors, and textures of this city will breathe into my abstract art. Yoga has been my way of seeing the world differently in 70+ countries—and each place leaves its own brushstroke on my canvas.

Dubrovnik’s coast is a painter’s palette — Lake Como blues, Greek whites, and Riviera golds. Inside the walls, Old Town is a living collage of centuries: marble textures, spice-scented air, and the sea framing it all in shifting light.

Last day at sea. I think about how an abstract painting is like sailing — u never know where the edges are until you move through them. Today the Adriatic gave me a new color for my memory.

Sailing isn’t a steep learning curve—it’s a deepening.
Rope by rope, we’re learning rhythm, not control.
Storms taught us calm.
Today, the sea is still, the sky is clear.
Presence, not perfection, carries us forward.
Brač ahead. Gratitude in the wake.

As an abstract artist, yogi, and psychology scholar, I live at the edges—where form dissolves and meaning emerges.
Like the breath, like the mind, art reveals the unseen.
Each brushstroke is inquiry, each pause a meditation, each piece a mirror of the self becoming whole.

Day 3: Pakleni Islands
Mooring + magic at The Fisherman’s House on Sveti Klement.
Exceptional food, warm family, and a sunset bell I got to ring after a hike through the island paths.
A sacred, simple joy.

Our boat went adrift while we were at dinner.
Bora winds. 45 knots. No visibility.
Boat gone.
Spotted it drifting-mooring ball in tow
—toward rocks.
We chased it. Got aboard.
Re-secured w/ help.
Soaked, stunned, safe.
This was only Day 2.

Travel inspires my art! Does it for you?

Most people hire a captain — we just rented a catamaran and we’re #sailing ourselves to five islands from Split, Croatia.
Exhilarating & A Little Anxious — I couldn’t wish for more. Travel & adventure excites me like nothing else.

There’s something about a Paris balcony—part stage, part sanctuary—that turns even the simplest moment into a cinematic scene.

Sorry croissant, but the chouquette from Dunes Blanches owns me.
Proof the French still believe in craft, care, and actual ingredients — unlike our sad “Greek” yogurt back home.
Name one American food people fly across the world to eat. I’ll wait.

Reading Doppelganger by Naomi Klein. The idea of the “digital double” has me asking: Is Brand You more real than you? Are we performing identity for success — even authenticity? Do we have a choice not to? Where are you at w/ this?

Fotografiska in #Stockholm felt like a cathedral for the soul of photography. Anton Corbijn’s show was pure electricity—50 years of raw, iconic imagery that hits u right in the feeling. This will inspire my paintings!

It’s not overindulgence, it’s fuel. I need a second helping of everything because I’m sightseeing with vigor. That croissant? For stamina. The cardamom bun? For clarity. The crackle crisps made of seeds? Pure obsession—but also protein, right? I’m basically carbo-loading for culture. #Stockholm

A slow-burn sky over Stockholm.
The kind of light that doesn’t dip, just lingers—
like the city’s dreaming in color.

Breakfast in Kuopio
Karjalanpiirakka with egg butter, forest berry pie, and Finnish meatballs—my final Finnish feast! Simple, soulful, unforgettable.
