It’s a very strange thing – over the past year my favourite colour has slowly been changing, from the fiery red I once loved so much to the calm, crisp blue I seem to be drawn to now. I can’t help but think that this is symbolic, or perhaps tied to my recent realisation that I’d like to settle in London for a while.

What’s your favourite colour? Has it ever changed?

Lovely Photos! You always looks so stylish in your travel photos! I need to learn how to look less homeless when I’m traveling haha.

Ha ha I’m sure that’s not true! I just wear a lot of bright colours, that seems to fool people into thinking I’m put together.

Thank you so much! I think all of these (other than the Keds) were from Old Navy or Forever 21. The yellow shoes were a random purchase in Chile!

Blue has always been my favourite colour, I also love deep green – the colours of nature 🙂

Aw, thanks! And yes, I sat with those women for a while and my friend Kerri just took a bunch of candid shots. They were asking about my necklace!

I imagine you snapping away, thousands of photos then going, “ohhh… I have to find some that suit this post!”

I love what you’ve done and appreciate the work that’s gone into it.

Ha ha – I take so many photos when I travel that it’s only later I realise I took many photos of the same thing! Thanks for your comment, I really appreciate it. 🙂

Gotta say – I love your outfit in the third picture!
I just read your post about loving Cusco and it got me even more excited for my trip there in a couple months. What were your favorite places in South America?

Thank you very much! I’m sure you’ll have a great time. I’m a terrible person to ask because I honestly liked every country I visited for different reasons. For what it’s worth, I spent the most time in Colombia and Peru, though wanted more time in Argentina and Brazil! 😀
