Let’s talk about Bear Week in Ptown! It was an amazing experience because I was able to spend it with someone who means the world to me.

However, I did get overwhelmed a few times because it was such a new experience! I haven’t been out for very long, and I don’t have many gay friends that I’m around regularly. So this guy was a little socially overwhelmed. Sounds right on track for me! 😉

We made sure to spend plenty of time experiencing new things and enjoying quality personal and social time.

I also made sure to have some minor mental escapes by shooting some great photos. The area is naturally beautiful, and the gardens and landscaping just made the entire experience even more beautiful.

Now that I have one Bear Week under my belt, I’m looking forward to going back again one day. Hopefully next year! #bearweek #ptown

I don’t think we should ever be afraid of having a few bad days; that’s just a part of life. What truly matters is whether we remain determined to find the light once more. 💙

Everyone has ups and downs, we all experience some success and some fails. What do you credit your success to?

Why is it that traveling is such an escape for so many people including myself?

Is it the exploration of the unknown? A break from the daily monotony of our lives? Do we become energized by seeing beautiful places and interesting cultures?

It’s probably a combination of all those reasons and more!

There’s a welsh word Hiraeth, I don’t even know how to pronounce it correctly, but I absolutely love the translation that the internet has given it, yes I say the internet because I don’t know any welsh speakers to confirm. But the definition that I’ve come to appreciate is that it means, homesick for a home that one can no longer return to and that maybe didn’t actually exist in the first place. 

Maybe that’s what I’m doing on my adventures, attempting to find a home, because I know the one I had isn’t in existence anymore.

Look up that word, Hiraeth.
I’m absolutely captivated by it. What do you think of this word?
