I am not one for pictures everywhere. In fact, when I was purchasing my decorations for my new apartment I purposely did not buy frames and things of that nature. I prefer art plastered all over my walls than a million and one photos. However, I could not resist this gorgeous, filagree textured photo album. I plan to document each trip I take by just using 1-2 pages per journey. I hope to fill it up sooner rather than later. This album is solely for my adventures so that if and when I have children, my kids are inspired to live out their dreams and explore the world if that's what they want to do. It would also be cool to have one location to look back on where I've been and see the blank pages and imagine where else I could go.
The second item is a journal that will begin with my 2014 travels. Each day I am gone from home I want to take time and reflect. I want to go somewhere quiet, with nothing but a pen and this journal and just write. I can write my feelings, what I see, what I've don't that day, it doesn't matter, as long as I write something. The journal also happens to have "Paris" along with a picture of the eiffel tower on the front. This means so many things for me, some of which you will later see, but I will share something... I remember being on twitter once, and following one of my favorite queens (Mr. RuPaul Andre Charles herself) and she was interacting with fans and answering questions. One fan asked him where he thought we went when we die...RuPaul's response was quite simple....all he said was "Paris". That was everything to me. As if I wasn't already obsessed enough with the city I have never been to but always longed to visit, you're telling me that it's heaven? That's all I needed...
