And Heaven in a wild flower, 
Hold infinity in the palm of your hand
An Eternity in an hour." - William Blake

Wavy vibes for Earth Day 😍🌊🌎 __ __ I love exploring the outdoors, but I especially enjoy being on the beach just listening to the waves crashing on each other. I've always found these sounds to be soothing 💛 Also, my mom is a firm believer in that going to the beach for a day can cure any ailments you might have. Whether it's mother's intuition or a Filipino superstition, I need to make a beach visit soon b/c my allergies are killing me 🤧 • • • • #BraidologieTravels #EarthDay #PointReyesNationalSeashore #landscapephotography #rawcalifornia #welivetoexplore #optoutside #focusonthegood #sheisnotlost #divinefeminine #shewhowanders #womenwhotravel #womenwhoexplore #landscape_culture #natgeotravel #teamnikon #roadtripping #californiacoastline

What could possibly be going through my mind in this shot thoooo? Caption this! (S/O to the person with the best one!) 😂#SlayfulSamFriday __ __ I woke up this morning and instead of worrying about what I still have left to do on my pre-PT journey, I focused on what I am thankful for and how far I've come already. Not gonna lie, this gap year time has been challenging, rewarding,  and everything in between. The things I've learned is probably enough to write a blog post about, but I will tell you this: don't give up. As cliche as it sounds, the option of giving up is very tempting (Lord knows how many times I've thought about it) but if you want something that bad, the persistence and motivation will come through. You just have to believe it into existence, surround yourself with people that lift you up, and do the work! This journey is a marathon fam, NOT a sprint💛 __ __ 📸: my gorgeously talented sista cousin @mana.docu 💕 . U (P.S I know I feature them A LOT on my feed, but S/O to @asianamericangirlclub for creating a platform for all of us API sistas to be our INDEFINABLE selves and be damn proud of it!! ✊🏽✨🙋🏾) • • • • #BraidologieTravels #prept #preptstudent #womeninpt #postgradproblems #futuredpt #manifestyourdreams #welivetoexplore #mentalhealth #selfcare #browngirlmagic #discoverunder15k #discoverunder10k #discoverunder20k #filipinoamericanbloggers #preptgrind #preptjourney #youaremagic #teamaagc #asianamericangirlclub #activelifestyles #optoutside #focusonthegood #sheisnotlost #staywildish #gogalavanting #themelanintravelclub #womenwhoexplore
Let me tell bout this chick from the West Coast.. 💃🏾🎧 (Can you #namethissong tho? 😎) __ __ Heyyoo noticed some new people on here and just thought I'd pop in and introduce myself! . My name is Samantha and I am a self proclaimed "Jill of all trades". In addition to making travel, fitness, and lifestyle content for my blog, I'm a post grad pre-PT student just trying to get into PT school. I am a yoga enthusiast, avid runner, and love exploring new places! . I am a passionate advocate for female empowerment and Asian American representation. I recently launched a collaboration series @wocinpt,  which highlights women of color in physical therapy 🙋🏾 . ✨Random things that spark joy for me: time spent with family+friends, skincare, travel, sangria, bullet journaling, early morning workouts, photography, listening to music, dancing, and helping those around me! . Ok, enough about me 😂 I'd like to know more about you! ➡ RAPID FIRE questions: 1) Tea or coffee? 2) Netflix or Hulu? 3) Shower in the morning or shower in the night? 4) Cruise vacations or camping trips? 5) Coca cola or Pepsi? Drop your answers down below! I'd love to connect with you fam 🤗 _ (P.S my last name is pronounced "huh-mos-mos" just thought I'd throw that out there)
"Nobody will understand the craziness of your family better than your cousins" 💕😂 __ __ People will come and go, but family will always be there for you. They might not be here WITH you, but they are always there FOR you. ❤ One of the joys of coming from a big family that is spread out globally, is that you automatically have travel companions to join you on adventures AND have reasons to travel more to visit them. Although you might not see them for years, reunions are that much more meaningful because it'll feel like nothing has changed. I live for moments like these 💛🌏✈ ➡ Would you travel overseas with your family or do you prefer to travel solo?
