Growing up, my parents were instant coffee drinkers, cream and sugar.

Now I’m the total opposite of instant, with grinding and filtering and brewing on the spot.

About five years ago, I did a “photo a day” challenge where I went out for a walk, took some photos, and posted one of them every day. I credit that for contributing to my love of photography and of walking everywhere.

Today, I’m still getting all those steps in and taking photos. Just slightly more hipster-ish selfies, with those vintage 1960s lenses I enjoy collecting via eBay 😄.
