Hella Helsinki
Helsinki: where men under 40 look like architects and women over 40 look like they own an art gallery on the upper east side. It’s a land of natural blondes with asymmetric cuts and sparkling blue eyes rimmed in the coolest frames. Ain’t no Warby Parker up in here, y’all. I’m talking Smörboll and Ödmjuk […]

Rishikesh is known as the world’s capital of yoga. It’s a holy city, so there is no meat or alcohol served in restaurants or markets. Monkeys and cows freely roam the streets. Right now it is 9am and 95 degrees. I am sweating my way through the fourth and final week of yoga teacher training […]

After the week of silent meditation showering with frog poo and bathing in my own sweat, I threw up my mudra hands and said “treat yo self!” – so I popped a few Dramamines and hopped on a ferry from Koh Samui to Koh Phangan. When we docked, the waves were too choppy for the […]

Holy hell, y’all. I’ve just gotten through the most difficult and most rewarding week of my life. I know – big statement, but you come to me drunk off the stupor of a week-long silent meditation retreat in the mutha-fuckin JUNGLE and then we’ll talk hyperbole. Here’s where I’ve been the past seven days: Dipabhavan […]
