Life in Pictures

Celebrated the beauty of Thai culture at the Experience Thailand event on this lovely NYC day. Enjoyed authentic cuisine (including yummy vegan food!) and fun activities! I can’t get enough of Thailand!!
Spent our last day in Norway on an outing to Lysefjord (which has gotten a bit more popular recently due to its Pulpit Rock from which Tom Cruise hung from in his latest Mission Impossible film).
Kayaking the Geirangerfjord!!
Saw the lovely town of Flåm today and as usual fell in love with the animals... 😁. Yes, the fjords are incredible too!
It’s impossible to take a bad photo in Norway. Everywhere you look is a spellbinding view and we were lucky enough to have great weather as we traveled to a 400 yr old fruit farm in Hardanger today!
Went to see Stonehenge, but instead fell in love with the sheep 🐑 🐑 🐑
Scenes from the English countryside... from the amazing historic wax figures at Warwick castle to the heights of knowledge at Oxford and Stratford-upon-Avon.
Had a lovely day in London today! Couldn’t believe how clean and beautiful it is, even the trains are adorable. :) too bad we missed Meghan and Henry at Hamilton last night which was SO close to our hotel!!
Testing out my new Canon Powershot SC740... the dogs sure make great models.
Check out all those fishes around us!! It was incredible. #islandhopping #snorkeling
Ventured out on a speedboat to the nearby islands of Angthong National Marine Park today. We swam, snorkeled, kayaked and had some delicious lunch at a remote fisherman’s village before a massive storm rolled in. We ended up having to return through the storm braving 6 ft swells. All I wanted for my upcoming birthday was to go on a boat, and I certainly got my fair share of it today. The scenery as you can see is breathtaking. Nature sure knows how to create dramatic vistas... and even more impressive phenomenon.
When you’ve got hair that won’t cooperate 😝
Totally in love with my villa with pool. And nothing beats breakfast brought to the pool after a workout 😁
In love with my pool villa at Santiburi!
The mighty Mekong river...
Crossed the border to Laos for a day and visited the world heritage site of Vat Phou.
I just can’t get over how beautiful temples here are!
At the end of the Candle Festival with my favorite wax float.
It was such an incredible experience to witness the Candle Festival in Ubon in Thailand’s northeast. The festival is celebrated on the first day of Buddhist Lent. Check out my pinned story for more pics and videos! @thailandinsider
