the island of capri

Not too far off the Almafi Coast lies the alluring Island of Capri. My dad and I rented a small boat, and set off into the electric blue- the Mediterranean Sea. There was hardly anyone else out at sea except a few yachts and the occasional fisherman catching our dinner. 




There is something so unique about the Mediterranean, the people of Italy are so passionate about the traditions of their ancestors. No butter...ever (I almost died, bread with no butter?), olive oil then salt... never the other way around, no carpets...fear of germs and the plague happening again, always wear shoes when outside...pshh yeah, right.

underwater goddess




I attended the La Jolla Fashion Film Festival, which was much more amazing and inspirational than I thought it would be. This is one of my favorite films from the last three days of viewing. 

"In ancient Greek mythology, Amphitrite was a sea-goddess and wife of Poseidon. Under the influence of the Olympian pantheon, she became merely the consort of Poseidon, and was further diminished by poets to a symbolic representation of the sea."
