The energy, the spirit, the hustle, the stories of its million people. I'm astounded by the sheer abundance of New York every time I visit.

{Great coffee but make it hipster and help empower refugees} ☕️ A bright red coffee truck parked next outside a converted 1960s-era service station is my new favorite coffee shop in Atlanta y'all! Besides selling delicious coffee from top quality sustainable ingredients, @refugecoffeeco is a non-profit org that employs refugees to make their coffee. Behind the scenes, the revenue from the coffee truck goes towards empowering its employees by teaching them English and training/mentoring them for jobs. How amazing is that? ☕️ Clarkston as I recently discovered is the beating heart of a thriving community of refugees from around the world and locals, about 20mins from Atlanta. Refuge Coffee is smack dab in the middle of Clarkston and it's such a beautiful, welcoming, and open space for anyone and everyone to meet and mingle over a cup of your favorite beverage.

Early mornings on Ponte Vecchio! ✨Look at the sunlight streaming through these arches and reflecting from the Arno river y'all, it's beautiful. During the Nazi retreat in WW2, all of the Florentine bridges were bombed and destroyed except for this bridge. Today, it's teeming with locals and tourists once the jewellery shops, antique shops, and art sellers open shop. 🇮🇹

My turn to #faceapp now y'all. Not too far from the truth especially with knee problems, jaw pain, a barrage of physiotherapist appointments sleepless nights this Summer. Unwittingly also gave access to all my photos like millions to this sketch-app which claims it won't sell them to the 🇷🇺 government but I even said I would finish packing a week before my trip to NY today but ended staying up until 2am doing that What we say we'll do and what we end up doing are two different things so who really knows? 🤪

A lot of quiet nights working late this month but that has allowed me to catch the sunset every now and then. It has nothing been nothing short of breathtaking. Summer nights got a special kinda hygge 🤭✨

Terracotta rooftops, domes, and spires as far as the eye can see and a sky so clear I could actually see a crescent moon at twilight that day. ✨ I worked remote from this beautiful @airbnb for a few days in Florence. Every now and then, I'd take a break, go to the rooftop and stare in wonder at the sunset view, think about all the people who had come and gone, dynasties that had risen and fallen, artists, architects, merchants, and craftsmen who'd left a mark in this history city. Ponder some more about my own life, the ups and downs, and think about how life is so transiet but how a good sunset is universal everywhere and how for that very reason I ought to slow down for a few moments and savor it every day. Then I'd get back to work with all these racing thoughts.
