The summer is escaping faster than I could have imagined, so before it slips away completely I commented on a few of my better photos from Greece. For more photos please visit my Flickr or my VSCO page. Continue reading

Importance of the Greek Economic Crisis
After having lived in Athens for the last three months I cannot help but feel the need to draw attention to the Greek economic crisis that has been rolling in and out of the news during my time here. Amidst the many media platforms shouting about the crisis, this is what I have gathered together … Continue reading
Philosophical in the Peloponnese
My collection of bus rides and wonderings through Peloponnese allowed a new standpoint on perspectives to develop; with a Kindle holding a copy of From Socrates to Sartre and my teal moleskin as the tools at my disposal. With the help of a make-shift curtain from my scarf and ginger tablets, I fought the urge of motion sickness and … Continue reading
Delphi – Meteora – Thessaloniki
Delphi: The Navel of the World About 8 or 9 years ago, when I was about a foot shorter and had various coloring books lying about my room, I discovered the world of Greek mythology. I don’t exactly remember how or where I first heard of the idea of these Gods, but I clearly remember … Continue reading
Mass Killings (Genocide) of Armenians under the Ottoman Rule in 1915
Mass Killings (Genocide) of Armenians under the Ottoman Rule in 1915. I wrote this piece on the Genocide of Armenians in 1915 after seeing a protest while I was traveling through Thessaloniki.

Throw Back to “Hanami” in Hiroshima
I took these photos one year ago in Hiroshima, Japan during a long-after-school bike ride. It was almost always a bit grey on the streets of Hiroshima, but the gloominess fit the architecture of the city in a peaceful sort of way. The statues in the Peace Park always appeared bolder when they didn’t have … Continue reading
Thoughts on Travel
Traveling is a mindset – it has no limits and is most often found up in the clouds. The motivation to reach the ‘goals’ of travel can inexplicably engulf all other responsibilities or norms of the average Joe. Henceforth, travel is dangerous to the ‘normal’ way of maturing. But the experiences aren’t just photos in … Continue reading
Stories through the Many Jungles of Costa Rica
The majority of my time in Costa Rica was spent studying in the Cloud Forest. I would wake up to gloomy, rainy days and by mid afternoon the sun was out with coatis playing in the trees. It was a quiet, easy environment to live in with the immense work loads we have – and … Continue reading
