Oregon is experiencing local super bloom, it’s really beautiful and briefly passing. Carpe diem!
Hiking was definitely number one cool thing that happened over the last four weeks. Nature is giving so much without asking for anything in return. I feel like it’s a great lesson. I’m so blessed to be in the Pacific Northwest, with all the natural wonders of the United States presented.

How did your March go? What was the best about it?
restaurant culture is vibrant and exotic anywhere you go, marketing strategies are endless fun
Chinese parks and gardens are very pretty
