223 | Looking Up :: Prague, Czech Republic, 2016
Went on a David Černý pilgrimage in Prague and took us a while to find this Statue of King Wenceslas Riding an Upside-Down Dead Horse. It was hidden in this tiny shopping center/office building and if you didn’t look up, you might just miss it. Artists are weird.

This little guy and his mom live at the peaceful monkey temple outside of Ubud. They have learned to play with the humans who will bring them food. I love his wrinkly face and beautiful eyes curiously staring at the world, and at the moment, me.

215 | Soldiers :: Bogota, Colombia, 2014
On our first day in Bogota, we drove through the city to go to a tourist spot and saw dozens of uniformed soldiers with machine guns in front of random buildings. It was actually quite a scary sight and I did not feel comfortable taking photos of them. But this guard in front of the…
