Hiked over the Koʻolau mountains in O'ahu while living in Hawaii for over a year. Was awestruck by the beauty on the other side when stepping through the clouds and parting the mist soaked leaves of the trees.

Lehren, lernen, teilen

Cranbrook art institute, gardens and house are an awesome place to visit near me. Almost like a European palace (sorry not as big as Versailles but the gardens rival it), the grounds are sprawling and beautiful. They are well worth the afternoon/sunset walk and have awesome photo opportunities as well. Ever see the movie Much Ado About Nothing? Kinda like that.
