What a blessing to be able to spend a weekend with my mom, dad, and brother before the big trip, especially since I won’t be with them over the holidays. It was a bonus to also be with aunts, uncles, cousins and second cousins in the setting of a great wedding! The bride was beautiful, the groom was beaming and a great time was had by all. Congratulations Maureen and Paul!

Friends
For those of you that may not know, I started practicing yoga when I was 14 because it cured my insomnia. By the time I was a sophomore in high school I had classmates asking me why I was so happy all the time— I mean, a girl going through puberty in an uber-competitive high school that is still bright and bubbly just doesn’t make sense—yoga was the only answer I could give them. They promptly asked to learn and so I started the yoga club. Within the first six weeks of my junior year I had had over 160 students attend. It was quite an adventure! My dear friend Marina was my side kick during these times, wearing the hat of “VP of the Yoga Club.” We have remained close ever since, and I was so happy to spend time with her this weekend. She was with me when I began my high school yoga adventure, and I am glad she was with me the weekend before I began my yoga travel adventure. We even rounded off the weekend with a trip through China Town. Beijing… here I come!!!
