Storm Stella in NYC

There are two magical times in NYC: during a snowstorm and just after a snowstorm. I LOVE NYC covered in snow, and if you follow me on Instagram, you’ll get that message loud and clear. I’m so glad I got a snow day for Storm Stella. While I did hide in my apartment for most of the day (I love snow, but I wasn’t gonna brave 50mph winds and ice falling from the sky), I ended up venturing outside for around two hours in the afternoon to do my traditional tour around Central Park for pretty snow photos.

This time, however, I wanted to switch it up a little, so after I went to the Park, I ventured over to Times Square for the first time ever (I don’t like crowds or tourist traps) and braved the piles of snow on sidewalks to capture some snowy street photography for the first time!

This is also my first time editing in Lightroom and I’m so happy with the results. I recently got a new computer which makes doing things like writing blog posts and editing photos so much less time consuming so I was finally able to get some more advanced editing software. I’m very pleased with the results :)

    Looks like this was a walk to remember! We had the after-effects of Storm Stella blowing into London too, but it was just a breeze in comparison!

      Yeah I keep up with London news and saw that y’all got what was left of Stella. Too bad it didn’t bring some snow over to you!

One of my favorite things about traveling in Franc One of my favorite things about traveling in France is the constant reminder to slow down. ✨ On a spontaneous stop in Tours after a busy morning of castle-visiting, we visited the cathedral (more on that soon) and wandered over to Place Plumereau. My former self would have wanted to maximize sightseeing, making a quick stop and moving on. 💥 However, the groups of people enjoying the beautiful weather with wine and cheese made it impossible to refuse a snack and break myself. 🍷🧀 Sitting on a terrace surrounded by others just ~being~ was a great reminder to slow down and soak up the moment 😌 #lifewellwandered #mindfultravel
What's one thing you always notice when you visit What's one thing you always notice when you visit a historical building? 🤓 I always notice floors and staircases, constantly imagining who used them and the history they've witnessed. ✨ The staircases in the châteaux in the Loire Valley did not disappoint 😍 #lifewellwandered

Do you prefer French or English gardens? 🌸 Some Do you prefer French or English gardens? 🌸 Something about the symmetry of French gardens (pictured here) is very pleasing to me, but I really dislike the rules that come along — no walking on grass, no random meandering from one spot to another, limited to the confines of your current trajectory. 🤷🏼‍♀️ I enjoy the freedom and wildness (is that a real word?) of English gardens much more! #lifewellwandered
Which half-timbered building would you live in? 🤔 Whenever I'm in Europe, I always find myself drawn to these quirky, wonky buildings, each with a unique history. 🤓 Drop me in any one and I would be content 😍 #lifewellwandered
