KAKSLAUTTANEN FINLAND: ✨ Wrapped in warmth, surrounded by snow. ✨

The world outside is frozen in a winter wonderland, but inside this glass igloo, I’m cocooned in pure luxury—soft blankets, warm sauna, and the kind of tranquility that feels like a dream. ❄️☁️

There’s something magical about watching the snowfall from the comfort of warmth, feeling completely safe, ...

KAKSLAUTTANEN FINLAND: Baby it's cold outside. But it's hot in here. I do wish I could have done an outdoor shoot but it was way too cold for that. As much as I love my art and my life, I need to care for myself too. I've been in a lot of cold places. This was the coldest. At one point in my Lapland adventures, I experienced -30c. Ouch.

My mission in life is to make choices that lead to blessed moments like this one. Thank you for joining me in those choices. Being a witness to them. Coming here was a great choice.

Kakslauttanen Finland: A Winter Wonderland Escape ❄️✨

Nestled deep in the Arctic, 250 km north of the Arctic Circle, I’ve found my little slice of paradise—my glass igloo at Kakslauttanen, Finland. Outside, the air is crisp, the snow glows under the moonlight, and the temperature dips to -12°C, but inside, it’s the perfect cozy haven. Wrapped...

DAVOS SWITZERLAND: One Last Dance in the Snow ❄️✨

The sun hangs low, painting golden streaks across the untouched snow. The air is crisp, carrying whispers of the season’s end. I take one last twirl, feet sinking softly into the frost-kissed earth, arms open to the sky.

This is a moment just for me, for the trees, for the wind that sings through the branches. One last dance ...

DAVOS SWITZERLAND: Golden Light & Crystal Snow ❄️✨

The winter sun kisses my skin as I twirl, its golden warmth a perfect contrast to the crisp air. Each step presses into the untouched snow, a soft crunch beneath my feet—like whispers from the earth. The light catches the tiny ice crystals, making them sparkle like a million tiny stars beneath me.

I clos...

DAVOS SWITZERLAND: The world feels like a dream up here in the Swiss Alps—pure white snow stretching as far as the eye can see, the crisp mountain air kissing my skin, and the golden sun painting everything in light. I twirl, I leap, I dance with my own shadow, feeling weightless in the glow of the moment. ❄️☀️

There’s something magical about these peaks, a place where time sl...

DAVOS SWITZERLAND: I probably should have moved back from the camera a bit to get me more in the frame but I also like how the photos turned out. The cold snow on my feet was chilling me to my core. This set up had to go fast and only once. Worth it.

DAVOS SWITZERLAND: I rarely take my boots off in the snow—because if my feet are cold, I am cold. But if they’re warm in my boots, then I stay cozy, no matter how deep winter wraps around me.

Today, though, I wanted to feel the snow beneath me, to let the light and shadow dance across my body as I became part of the landscape. The crisp air, the hush of winter, and the way the sun kis...

DAVOS SWITZERLAND:

Standing here on the mountainside, the silence is profound, broken only by the whisper of the wind and the crunch of snow underfoot. The sun glows golden over the ridges, painting everything in soft light, and for a moment, time stands still.

DAVOS SWITZERLAND: Breathing in the Heights of Davos. There’s something magical about being at altitude, high in the Swiss Alps, where the air is crisp, pure, and invigorating. Every deep breath feels like a reset—cool oxygen filling my lungs, energizing every cell, clearing my mind. The world stretches out below in endless layers of snow-capped peaks and winding valleys, a reminder of just...

DAVOS, SWITZERLAND: I attended a talk in Davos by a renoun climate scientist who said we have passed the 1.5 degree Celsius threshold. Dec hit 1.6c. And our environment is going to change drastically. More natural disasters will happen. And we will have unreasonably warm days like the day I ran around nude in the snow. It was supposed to be -20c . But it was 8. Having a warm day is nice in the ...

DAVOS SWITZERLAND: Demonstrating the effects of climate change, i was able to hike in a sundress on the slopes of Davos in January. It supposed to be -10 to -20 c it was 5 to 8 c all week that I was there. Every location on this planet is experiencing changes in the climate. We have crossed the threshold in the rise of our Global temperature and the effects are noticeable. Some of them are disa...

LONGMEADOW, MA: A few more from Turner Park. I thought I had posted these already bit I guess not. Thank you for following my adventures.

I just did a fun hike in Davos Switzerland. Those photos are coming next.

LONGMEADOW, MA: The structure was man made. The branches were only resting on each other and not secured. And they were brittle. Every movement had the potential of bringing the whole thing down. Great care had to be taken to make sure it was preserved.

LONGMEADOW, MA: A curious site to see branches lined up in this way. And not too sturdy. I had to be very careful to not break branches when I put my weight on them. I felt like this was a fairy house of some type. Protection from the elements.

LONGMEADOW, MA: Nestled in nature’s embrace, I’ve found a seat where the forest cradles me. This moss-covered root feels like a throne carved by time, holding me gently as I pause to breathe in the energy of the ancient trees.

In moments like these, I’m reminded of how interconnected we are with this vast, living world. Watch as I become a tiny presence in this grand, green sanctuar...

LONGMEADOW, MA: The moss covered trees in Turner Park gave me a padded place to rest. The soft moist leaves a wooded perfume of winters decomposition to creation of new soil. Every deep breath brings me closer to the earth. Grounded in her majesty.

LONGMEADOW, MA: I love the feeling of wet leaves under my feet. The freshly melted snow from 2 days before gave a perfectly saturated texture to the leaves. Not too soggy, no puddles, but soaked through and through. With each step, I felt the forest floor penatrate my soles. Beckoning me to root, to plant myself.

LONGMEADOW, MA: Barefoot, I wander the trail, each step a qu..

LONGMEADOW, MA: Barefoot, I wander the trail, each step a quiet communion with the earth. The wet leaves kiss the soles of my feet, their cool embrace a whisper of the forest’s heartbeat. The moist floor cradles me, soft and yielding yet ancient and strong—a tapestry of life woven beneath my every step.

I adore this feeling, this grounding, this intimacy with the wild. With each step,...

LONGMEADOW, MA: Embracing the wild and free spirit within 🍃✨ Walking this beautiful trail with nothing but my new hiking boots and nature all around me. Feeling the earth beneath my soles and the sun on my skin is pure magic. Join me on this journey of self-discovery and natural beauty. 🌲"

LONGMEADOW, MA: The forest whispered its welcome as I wandered the trails of Turner Park, the gentle path wrapping around the still pond like an embrace. A perfect day to lose myself in nature’s rhythm, each step grounding me in the sacred dance of earth and sky. My new boots carried me far, but the barest parts of me connected deeper—the sun’s warmth on my skin, the cool breeze brushing ...

LONGMEADOW, MA: I love my life. I do things that I love like being free to roam in nature without clothes. I am often asked what do I eat or how do I exercise to keep my figure. But it's not only what I do on the inside but also what I do on the outside that keeps me looking youthful and fit. Giving my skin time to breathe unclothed. Allowing all my exterior nerves to come online at the same ti...

LONGMEADOW, MA: There’s something magical about wrapping my arms around the trunk of an ancient tree, feeling its strength and wisdom through the rough bark beneath my hands. Trees are the lungs of our Earth, grounding us with their roots while reaching for the heavens with their branches.

I love connecting with nature in this way—hugging trees, feeling their energy, and listening to ...

LONGMEADOW, MA: There’s nothing quite like the feeling of being natural in nature, truly connecting with the earth and all its beauty. Today was one of those rare, perfect moments—where everything aligned just right.

The air was crisp and cool, carrying the refreshing promise of a new season, yet the sun wrapped me in its warm embrace, the first time it truly has since the snow ...

LONGMEADOW, MA: it was an absolute perfect day. I didn't feel like I needed to bundle up between locations. I could enjoy the warm sun on my skin and the cool air rustling the fallen leaves and my hair.

Longmeadow, MA: Turner Park is a hidden gem between Springfield and Longmeadow. It's an 84 acre wooded terrain with hiking trains and a 2 acre stream fed pond. Most parks get their name from a person. But this Park its a group of people.

The property has an interesting past that may not be well known today. The present park’s land was owned by the Springfield Turners. The “Turne...
