ON CAPTURING MOMENTS IN TIME

I've been SO excited to tell this story for weeks now, but I had to wait for a
few of the pieces to come together…

In what feels like a past life these days, several years ago I was doing a bunch
of traveling and taking a bunch of photos. I uploaded all my favorite photos to
a website called Unsplash and essentially gave them away to anyone that wanted
to use them for designs or whatnot.

One of the highlights of my travels was doing a group photography trip to Japan
with a company called Moment. I made great friends and had the opportunity to
experiment with a lot of different photography styles that I otherwise wouldn't
have been comfortable with – mainly street photography and candid portraits.

A couple of weeks ago, I was pleasantly surprised to be tagged on an Instagram
post of an amazing painting that was based on one of the photos I took in Japan!
The artist's name is Jasmin Dobrovsky and she is based in Austria.

I was blown away with the painting and, after a night of thinking about it,
decided to buy it and worked with Jasmin to have it shipped across the world.

It finally arrived and is now hanging on my wall!!

I could hardly wait to share the story and give plugs to the people that made it
happen. Thanks a ton to Jasmin for capturing a moment from my life with her
unique talent and perspective. Shoot her a follow on Instagram and know that
she's got experience shipping overseas if any of her pieces catch your eye!

Also, big ups to Moment and Unsplash as well.

BACK AT IT

> Your future self will thank your past self for recording this history.

This whole starting a new habit thing is tough. I fell off for a few days, but I
happened to stumble on an article about journaling this morning and going to try
to get back at it!

We're back from Yosemite. Our retreat went great. We spent a good amount of time
talking shop and a good amount of time having fun. I'm glad we got to spend some
time with my Aunt and Uncle. We had a great time in the park snapping pictures
and exploring. We ate at the Ahwahnee – I'd never been there before – and I got
a new sticker for my collection.

The last day or two back at home have been “transition” days. I still need to do
my laundry from the trip. I was only home for a couple of days in between road
tripping and the Yosemite trip, and I spent a lot of that time preparing. I
think my body was tired as I keep sleeping in way past the normal amount of time
I usually sleep.

Brent got some fantastic photos during the trip. I am shamelessly stealing one
to use as the featured image for this post.

It's super Tuesday. Beer virus and the stock market crash/swings are dominating
the news.

I've been daydreaming about buying a house in Tahoe recently. I'm feeling the
need for a new project in my life and to establish a home base that isn't my
mom's house. The thought of having a new house opens the door to a bunch of fun
micro-projects like building out a new workspace and or a garage, setting up a
hosting and entertaining space, and getting the opportunity to explore deeply a
new part of the world.

TO YOSEMITE AND BEYOND

Brent and Anthony got into San Jose today and we took off for Yosemite! I broke
down the “camper bed” set up in my car and put the back seats back in. We left
the Bay around 1:30 and did a late lunch in Los Banos around 3 pm.

We got to the pines a little before 6 pm just as the sun was setting. We popped
by the Pines Bar, then did dinner at Ducey's. Both were enjoyable and tasty!
Then we went to my Aunt and Uncle's house for a nightcap and some time by the
fire.

MY OLD ROOM

Yesterday was the last day of prep for our team retreat in Yosemite. I got my
hair cut and I worked from the coffee shop across the street from my barber for
a bit. My sister invited us to her house for dinner. I unsuccessfully tried to
get her cats to like me. My sister lives in San Carlos in a house that I used to
live in. My old room is now my Dad's room. I hadn't been in there in a while,
but I had a chance to relive some old memories from that room yesterday.

Chrissy made chili and beer-batter bread. We talked about potentially watching
the democratic debates; then we didn't. We all made an effort to wish my Great
Uncle a happy birthday. He turned 81(?) yesterday.

SUMIKA GRILL

Yesterday was uninspiring, I guess. All of three days into daily journaling and
it feels like today is the first day where I am having to force it. I've been
trying to get into the habit of writing about the day before with my cup of
coffee each morning.

Chrissy came over yesterday. She was going to a movie in the evening with a
friend, but she hung out at Miranda during the day.

I got the oil changed in my car. The car had been making some odd noises and the
oil change seemed to eliminate all of them. It's officially ready to go for our
trip to Yosemite tomorrow. The guys are flying in in the early afternoon and
we're hitting the road to head to the Pines Resort on Bass Lake.

There are a few articles making rounds in the WordPress world about MAGA hats
and WordCamps. I spent some time thinking about it yesterday. Part of me wants
to comment on it and part of me doesn't. The WordPress community is
predominately left-leaning and that was one of the things that attracted me to
it in the first place. As a community, a lot of time and effort goes into making
WordPress as accessible as we possibly can. I find it mind-boggling that despite
all that, some folks are arguing to disallow others from attending WordCamps
based on their political preference. It seems like a major regression to me.

The stock market was tanking yesterday, so I picked up some Tesla and added to
my Apple position. I think today I will put some more cash in Wealthfront. I
have still been eyeing houses in Lake Tahoe, so I want to keep some cash around
for a potential down payment.

I went to Sumika for dinner. I've done this a few times now and I think it's
going to be a new tradition for me when I am in Los Altos. Walk to Sumika, sit
at the bar, then proceed to drink an entire bottle of Sake and gorge on
Yakitori, rice, and salad. It's an upscale restaurant so there is always an
interesting crowd there. From early “I want to impress you” style dates, to
high-power business meetings, to “crazy rich Asian” family dinners. It's one of
my favorite places!

CAR WASH STATE OF MIND

In all honesty, it was a pretty uneventful day. I continued to knock out errands
and veg out after returning home from my road trip. Laundry was done. I believe
I successfully troubleshot an issue with my Macbook Pro's charging cable. I
bought fresh coffee and fresh beer. I got groceries, er cheese. I went to the
grocery store and bought nothing but cheese. I got my car washed.

I don't regularly wash my car. I like it to have an armor of dust and grime. My
coworkers, Brent and Anthony, are coming into town on Wednesday for a team
retreat in Yosemite, so I wanted the car to look nice for them. It was also
extremely dirty after driving around in the snow and grit.

The stock market began a pre-market tank that is continuing through today. Fears
of the Coronavirus are starting to affect the market. It will probably be a good
day tomorrow to move some money around and pounce on some deals. It's been a
while since I've bought stocks. I've been saving cash with the idea that I would
like to put a down payment on a house soon.

I found the house I want too! Although, I have never seen it in person. It's on
Kingsbury Grade on the Nevada side of South Lake Tahoe. It's been over a year
since I have had a home base outside my mom's house. After the Yosemite trip, I
am planning to do at least one more week up in Tahoe to go check out the house
and go snowboarding. After that, I am loosely planning to head to Europe and
particularly Kyiv to visit my friend Sabrina.

We went my favorite restaurant last night for dinner, State of Mind. My friend
Lars was there and so was my friend Michela. It was great to see them both. We
watched basketball and drank a few beers. I fell asleep watching late seasons of
The Office. It was a good day.

P.S. – The only photo I took yesterday was of the cat.

FIRST DAY BACK IN LOS ALTOS HILLS

I'm back home. Well, back at Mom's house in Los Altos after spending a month on
the road. It was a gorgeous day in the Bay Area yesterday. The cherry blossoms
are in full bloom. The sky was sunny, it was warm, and a steady wind was blowing
the blossoms like snow all over my shorts, tshirt, and sandals as I was
unpacking my car.

I started reading Warren Buffet's annual report. I read about Jeff Bezos' 10
billion dollar climate fund. I read about Utah's Great Salt Lake and lake-effect
snow. Bernie Sanders has been dominating the primary elections and won Nevada
yesterday by a landslide.

If I had timed it better, I think I could have caught a Bernie rally in Nevada.
I am not a fan of his policies regarding taxes, but I do appreciate (which I
appreciated about Trump) the way the internet is affecting our democracy and
seemingly giving people and grassroots political efforts much more impact. I
would have definitely visited a rally if I had the chance because I bet it's one
hell of a party and a good way to meet cool idealistic women. It would love to
grab a sticker too!

Speaking of stickers, I put some new travel stickers on my cooler. It's become a
tradition when I get home from a trip. Reviewing my sticker haul and placing a
few either favorite or appropriately sized stickers on the ongoing Yeti
collection. I chose my Yeti cooler as the home to my favorite stickers because
the thing is built like a tank. It will probably outlive me and dressing it up
with stickers, I hope, will make it less enticing to thieves.

Mom and I went to Casa Lupe for margaritas and Mexican food. We both caught a
little buzz from the extra-strong ritas they serve. Jamie is still in a baking
phase, so I came home and feasted on a variety of week-old cakes, frosting,
chocolate ganache, and homemade jam; then immediately felt guilty about it.

I went from a pretty sedentary existence to hiking and snowboarding 5 days a
week. I wasn't eating clean on my road trip, but I was sticking to mostly one
meal per day. I was excited to come home and see the end-of-summer weight I put
on had melted away. Instead, while I definitely feel more tone and muscular, I
was only down a pound or two from where I started.

I'm continuing to be conscious of working to generate some new healthy routines.
Journaling, being more active, and stretching are the three current focuses. Oh,
also I want to take at least one picture each day to add to these journals.

DRIVING FROM UTAH TO CALIFORNIA

I just finished up a month-long road trip; ~3300 miles, 6 states, 1 WordCamp, 2
national parks, 4 ski resorts, ~150,000 vertical feet of snowboarding, 4 hotels,
3 AirBNBs, 10 miles of hiking, 3 breweries, lots restaurants, lots of bars, and
lots of coffee shops.

Driving is therapeutic for me. Similar to being in the shower, it's time where
my mind can wander without the normal interruptions of life. I usually listen to
music, but on the drive home I put on a few podcasts. I love music but it feels
like escapism whereas podcasts seem a much more mentally stimulating way to pass
time. Tim Ferriss' interview with Penn Jillette made the miles and the hours
melt away and I was inspired by the conversation about journaling.

I've never written a daily journal before in my life, but I am planning to give
it a try. When I was traveling through Asia and Europe, I kept a loose “journal”
of quick notes about the places I'd been and the things I'd seen. Memories that
I didn't want to lose to the fog of time. Those notes are something I cherish
now and they genuinely help jog my memory and bring me back to those times. I
love the idea of being able to read back one week, one year, or one decade ago
and get a glimpse into my past and what my thoughts were on that day.

My plan is to publish journals on my blog, but they're really only intended to
be read by me. I won't be doing extensive proofreading or much effort to make
them cohesive or entertaining. If someone happens to stumble upon them, though,
I am okay with that.


THE DRIVE

I woke up in Park City, Utah knowing exactly what was in store for the day. I
wanted to get to Tahoe around dinner time to meet with my friend Katie. That was
going to be about 8 hours of driving, so I needed to get on the road early.
Katie is from Minnesota, but she was visiting Tahoe that week. I skipped my
daily ritual of making and drinking a cup of coffee. I quickly packed up all my
gear into the car and stopped by Starbucks to get a cup of coffee for the road.
Starbucks isn't my favorite, but it's always consistent and good enough; you
know what you're going to get.

A few days earlier, I drove into Salt Lake City to see a Murder by Death show.
It was dark when I was driving, so I didn't get to see any of the landscape, but
the city and the lights were impressively sprawling when I came out of the
mountains. SLC is a city surrounded by beautiful, snow-capped mountains and I
was taken back by the scenery when I drove down during the daytime. There was a
surprising amount of smog that created a stark contrast between the clear view
of the mountains and the haze encompassing the city below. It looked like an
inversion system was preventing the smog from rising and locking it in the
valley between the peaks.

Utah had a subtle but noticeable conservative and traditional vibe to it. Lots
of families. Lots of clean-cut blonde humans. While I enjoyed my time there very
much, I couldn't help feeling out of place. I was excited to leave the state.

I drove past Salt Lake(?) and through what seemed like salt flats for several
hours before arriving at the Nevada/Utah state line. While state borders are
totally arbitrary, it was like the landscape immediately changed from salty,
hazy, mountainous terrain to the dry, high-desert landscape that is synonymous
in my mind with Nevada.

I started smoking a bit on my trip and I was tempted throughout the Nevada leg
of the journey to pop into a dispensary and see what they had. I didn't end up
stopping until I reached Fernley, NV. My uncle, aunt, cousin, and their extended
family lives in Fernley. I'd been there before so it was familiar and easy to
navigate. I didn't realize the route would take me through there otherwise I
would have reached out to all of them ahead of time.

I stopped by the casino where my uncle works and, by chance, happened to catch
him there. We chatted for a bit. He was quite surprised to see me out of the
blue. It was great to see him and, after a quick visit, I got back on the road
for Tahoe.

I had a bit of time to kill, so I stopped by Alibi brewery's new taproom in
Incline Village. After a salmon toast and a pint, I picked up some Contradiction
cans and started heading to meet Katie. We had another drink and watched a
two-man string band play a few songs. One of the guys was playing bass on a
pedalboard at his feet while singing and playing the guitar; it was impressive!

I met and chatted with Katie's friends and left them to enjoy their dinner while
I knocked out the last couple of hours of driving. Passing through Auburn is
always exciting since I was born there. The drive from Tahoe to Sacramento felt
like it went faster than I expected, but the drive from around Davis back to the
Bay felt like it was dragging on.

Mom was excited to see me when I got home. The cats took a few minutes to
remember who I was, but they started following me through the house as I
unloaded the car once they remembered. Jamie got home a few minutes after I got
in the door. We chatted and quickly caught up then started heading to bed.

It was nice being able to comfortably walk outside in shorts and a tee-shirt.
The day started at 7000 feet of elevation and single-digit temperatures and
ended at sea level and a comfortable mid-sixty-degrees. As I started to fall
asleep, I started to get excited about waking up and having my regular cup of
coffee: fresh-ground Philtered Soul out of the Aeropress and a dash of real
cream.

Driving from Utah to California


VISITING FAIRBANKS, ALASKA FOR THE AURORA BOREALIS

November 13th-19th, 2018

After spending a few days exploring Washington State, I continued north to
Fairbanks, Alaska. I'm a native Californian and, prior to this trip, could count
on one hand the number of times I'd seen it snowing. Visiting Alaska was a
chance to break out of my temperature comfort zone, learn how to drive in the
snow, and experience the Alaskan culture and landscape which was lauded as
totally unique to the lower 48's. I was excited to explore in Alaska, but my
biggest motivator for the trip was a chance to see the Northern Lights!

Earlier in the year, I visited Iceland and, while in the right location, didn't
get a chance to see any aurora activity. After being so close and missing, it
decided I would have to make another attempt as soon as I could.


PREPARATIONS

I go back and forth between over-preparing and winging it when it comes to
travel. For this trip, I did a fair amount of research and planning ahead of
time. I wanted to stay somewhere slightly outside of the city so I could avoid
light pollution and see the Northern Lights from where I stayed. That meant I
needed to rent an AWD vehicle as opposed to relying on taxis (Lyft/Uber were
just starting to operate in Fairbanks at the time of writing this and not 100%
reliable).

I joined and started following a Fairbanks, Alaska Facebook group and subreddit.
Lots of potential travelers have posted questions, so there was a wealth of
helpful information. I rented a vehicle through one of the airport-based rental
companies and I grabbed an Airbnb that was a few miles outside of town. In
hindsight, I would have tried to find an Airbnb that was on the other side of
the ridge as I didn't have a great view of the northern horizon.


COLD WEATHER PREP

I've been slowly accumulating cold-weather gear. I brought my waterproof hiking
shoes, warm wool socks, a few long-sleeve base layers, a hoodie, scarf,
synthetic down puff jacket, and a beanie. I also added a set of long johns to
the mix for this trip. It got as low as -6°F and I didn't have any trouble
staying warm.

Layering combined with really warm socks and a beanie+hood seemed to do the
trick. Granted, I tend to run warm and, by Fairbanks standards, -6 isn't all
that cold. If it were much colder, a pair of insulated boots and a more
significant jacket probably would have been necessary.


FIRST TIME DRIVING IN SNOW

I feel a little silly that, at 33 years old, I'd never driven in snow before. It
was a little bit nerve wracking at first but, once I got comfortable, it was
actually pretty fun. There was about a half foot of snow on the ground when I
got into town.

 * 
 * 
 * 

Driving in the actual snow was a lot easier than driving a few days later when
the snow melted and the roads iced up. To be honest, it reminded me a lot of the
ice levels in Mario Kart. Once I made that connection, things got a lot easier.
Anticipate the slide and hope your wheels catch when they need to.


MOOSE MEAT

I love tasting local flavors when I travel, so I did some research about Alaskan
game meat. Restaurants can't serve “wild” meat like moose or bear, so I made a
post in the Fairbanks Facebook Group offering to bring wine and snacks if any
hunters wanted to invite me over for dinner. Unfortunately, there were no
takers.

In a stroke of good luck, I was drinking and chatting with a few locals and
mentioned I was scoping out the local dive bar scene. One of them suggested The
Mecca which was a well-known hangout spot for Native Alaskans. I popped by and,
again, got to chatting with a few of the regulars there. They suggested heading
to the Morris Thompson Cultural and Visitors Center where there was a Gwich’in
Fiddle Dance and potluck!

At the potluck, I got to try some moose stew and it was delicious! To be honest,
the flavor of the meat was hard to distinguish from the rest of the stew, but it
was a nice warm meal on a chilly evening and a check off the Alaskan experience
list.


CHENA HOT SPRINGS

Just about everyone I talked to recommended making a visit out to Chena Hot
Springs. It's about 60 miles outside of town through some serene and gorgeous
Alaskan wilderness. I was told to keep an eye peeled when driving over bridges
as the creeks and rivers are like highways for all the wildlife. I was hoping to
catch a glimpse of a moose or a bear, but alas I didn't see any. I did see
several mushers with their dog teams, though!

The road to Chena was relatively straight and flat, well maintained, and
frequently travelled, although I understand it can get very slick and
treacherous during winter storms. After arriving I grabbed lunch and a brew at
their restaurant. I bought a sticker to add to my collection and then went
exploring. They offered dog sled tours, but I found it way more fun to visit
with all the dogs in their kennels. It's a great spot for animal lovers—they
also have reindeer! After playing with the pups, I took a little hike through
the surrounding valley.

 * 
 * 
 * 
 *

After an hour or so of hiking in the cold, I popped into the hot springs to warm
up. It was a sensational experience! The springs were surrounded by colorful
lights that illuminated the steam and made for a super peaceful experience. It
was below freezing out, but I only noticed when my hair would freeze up from
being out of the warm water for too long.


ALASKAN HISTORY MUSEUM

Sometimes I wish I were more interested in museums and culture and stuff like
that. Checking out the history museum was a bit of a novelty for me, but I had a
half day to kill and it was close by.

That said, it was pretty sweet! The building was totally photogenic and there
were some really impressive exhibits. One stand out was the giant grizzly bear
taxidermy! I didn't appreciate how big grizzly's could get until I got to walk
up face to face with this one.

 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 

Another interesting one was The Place Where you go to Listen, a “musical
ecosystem [that] gives voice to the rhythms of daylight and darkness, the phases
of the moon, the seismic vibrations of the earth, and the dance of the aurora
borealis.” Pretty psychedelic!


NORTHERN LIGHTS

I was excited to visit Alaska for more reasons than just seeing the Northern
Lights, but it was definitely #1 on my wish list. After staying up late each
night and waking up early each morning, it was my last night in AK and my last
chance at seeing the lights.

It was overcast the whole day, but there was a window of clear skies predicted
from 2-4 am. The clouds were so thick I was skeptical it would happen. The
aurora predictions weren't great either, but they were better than the previous
two days; a 17% chance. The trip had been amazing and I wasn't discouraged
that I hadn't seen the auroras, but I was already thinking about how and when to
make another trek north. 🙂

 * 
 * 
 * 

I was sitting in the car reading a book, under a dome of thick clouds, and
noticed a strange glow peeking through. I couldn't tell if it was just the sky
or the moonlight shining through the clouds. I whipped out the camera, took a
long exposure and, sure enough, it was green! I saw the lights! I was super
jazzed at that point just to see a faint green glow poking through the haze.

Then, the clouds started to clear and the real show started up! I've never seen
anything like it. There were the most gorgeous natural gradients of all sorts of
colors and a wild random dancing and fluttering of the lights.

 * 
 * 
 * 

Two other tourists showed up and we got to share our overwhelming awe of what
was going on around us. The peak lasted almost an hour. I was running around in
6 inches of snow all night and, by the end, I couldn't feel a single toe, but I
was totally unbothered. I couldn't have asked for a better way to cap off this
life-changing adventure!

Visiting Fairbanks, Alaska for the Aurora Borealis


ONE CHAPTER ENDS AND A NEW ONE BEGINS. A EULOGY TO MY HOME IN THE SANTA CRUZ
MOUNTAINS.

After countless grueling trips up fifty-five stairs, lugging boxes and gear, I'm
completely moved out of my cottage. It's bittersweet.

For the last five years, I've lived and worked from a spectacularly beautiful
spot in the Santa Cruz Mountains with a sweeping view of the Lexington
Reservoir. I've been immersed in nature and regularly watched the deer, turkeys,
bald eagles, foxes, coyotes, bobcats, beavers, snakes, and all sorts of other
critters from my windows. I could walk out the door and be steps away from
fishing, hiking, and mountain biking. Stumbling on that little lakeside cottage
was one of the luckiest moments of my life, but it's time to say goodbye.

With windows and doors wide open it was maybe 350 square feet, and I managed to
utilize every nook and corner. I had HDMI, Ethernet, TRS, power, and various
other cables neatly snaking through, all well-managed and more-or-less hidden
from sight. I had some amazing and arguably tasteful artwork that was given to
me and created by my great friends on display. I had a full-fledged media studio
capable of producing just about any sort of digital content imaginable. I had a
“dining” table that served as a staging ground for fishing, biking, camping,
camera, and festie gear.

It was the best of both worlds. A quiet and peaceful mountain cottage, with
blazing fast internet and connectivity, that was only 10 minutes from bougie
restaurants and civilization. It was a damn good home.

 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 
 * 

I heard something recently about the importance of one's room or workspace.
Building and designing a room forces you to think about the purpose of that
room. I lived and worked from my “room” and put a tremendous amount of thought
and care into dialing it in to near perfection. It was an ongoing existential
exercise. What's important to me? How do I want to spend my life's time? What do
I want to produce? What do I need close by to be the most satisfied, content,
and productive with my life?

My plan for 2019 is to violently break out of that meticulously curated comfort
zone. Thanks to the overwhelming generosity and flexibility of my family, I'm
now a proper boomerang millennial! They've graciously cleared some space for me
to store my gear at their house and I am planning to experiment with a nomadic
existence in 2019 and beyond! Full-time traveling, both stateside and abroad.

I'm in a bizarre and fortunate place right now where I have absolutely nothing
connecting me to any particular spot on this planet. So to me, the logical thing
to do to take advantage of that circumstance is to wander. I'm hoping to spend a
few weeks or months here and a few weeks or months there. I'm almost definitely
going to spend some time in Europe, SE Asia, Japan, and South America. I'm
hoping to visit India. I'm thinking about an extended cross-country road trip
around springtime. Maybe I'll do a tour! The only definitive plan right now is
rambling.

So, if you need a travel buddy let me know where in the world to find you and
I'll do my best to be there! Thanks to everyone that inspired this life change
and helped make it a reality. Goodbye, house. Thanks for all the good times.
