Having a coffee at the bar — a daily ritual in Italy (and a very pleasant one).

I absolutely love that sound when the barista sets the cup down on the marble counter…It’s my little happiness trigger.

P.S. That final hand gesture means “Perfetto”.

Prendere un caffè al bar — un rituale quotidiano in Italia (e molto piacevole).

Adoro quel suono, quando il barista appoggia la tazzina sul marmo… È il mio piccolo trigger di felicità.

Sweet potato 🍠

January 2026

Slow Sundays are becoming a thing for me. Sometimes at the beach, sometimes at home, sometimes just wandering with no real plan.

Sai Kung on a Sunday afternoon has its own rhythm—eclectic market stalls, handmade bits and pieces, pet trinkets you didn’t know you needed, and quiet conversations floating through the air.

Somewhere between the walking and the browsing, I found myself holding a sweet potato. Simple. Grounding. Nourishing.

Rich in fibre, full of vitamins, good for gut health, energy, and balance—exactly what my body’s been asking for lately. Surprisingly, this was my first food of 2026. And honestly? It felt right.

Here’s to slowing down, eating with intention, and letting small, ordinary moments be enough.

Project Ordinary Magic | Everyday Normal: AMANDA. ⠀ I’ve had this back burner idea for years to photograph people doing everyday normal things. My goal is to share the little moments in life that we may not always get to see. To me, photographing people has nothing to do with acting poised and posed. I don’t much care for people to act in front of my lens. I care that people feel comfortable enough to be themselves, camera or not. ⠀ I photographed Amanda two days ago, on a Sunday morning. Her pup, Jada, lay at my feet with occasional licks and excited pants whilst her mama doing her thing. Amanda lives the path of do no harm, take no shit. She’s smart, funny, and contagiously free in her expression. And one of my favorite people to bounce ideas off of and we let each other have bitch-fest vent sessions when needed. She’s also a grounded, knowledgeable yoga teacher and she’ll drop some bombs with her east coast charm. She teaches me. ⠀ Thank you, @_amandavdub, for being my first for this project and trusting me to see and capture you so freely. ⠀ #ordinarymagic #everydaynormal #everydaynormalproject #sharethepeople https://www.instagram.com/p/BsGkKdvloMk/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=16px2anbon6w2

A happy summer morning.

Never forget to appreciate what you have. Because if you don’t, it will surely be taken away from you — so that you learn to realize it.
