Its been a while since I done one of these and its has definitely been a long time since I’ve traveled somewhere outside of Illinois. Getting on a plane for the first since 2019 was very weird at first. Being stuck on a cylinder shape air type fast moving vehicle thousand on feet above the ground during a pandemic had me paranoid, but hey it felt normal once I got on the plane and sat down, everyone wore a mask and not one soul complaint about it.
Finally got the opportunity to go back to Arizona and got some hiking in around some of the mountains. Man it feels good to able to get out my natural surrounding and see new things; do new activities that I couldn’t normally do in a more urban city like Chicago. The only I forgot I dislike the most when I travel out to western states is all the driving I have to do.
For those who don’t know I’m not a big fan of driving long distances, after an Hour and half I cringe to get out the car and move around, but of course everything is so spread out; I be trying to telling myself just to hold on your almost there.
Driving from one side of Phoenix to the other from where I was staying is about an hour and 20 mins….. thank god for music I don’t know how people way back then travelled so much like how did endure those long journey by themself on horseback.
Well at least all the beautiful sunsets made up all the long drives, all the warm colors in the sky as the sun departed from us for the day was my favorite part of my day and trip. Hopefully I’ll make my way out there soon in a couple months.
I also had the chance to link with Healing Roots and Kashara Marie to do a photoshoot in the desert I had the idea in my head for a very long time. Roots and I had been trying to do a shoot for months and our schedules could never align. Luckily we were both out in Phoenix at the same time so we finally got together and created some magic.
I hope everyone staying healthy and safe, here some photos from our shoot and some from my journey, enjoy!!
