I adore alpacas! So last month, my family and I visited an alpaca farm called Island Alpaca on Martha’s Vineyard. This farm has been around since 2004 and has about 19 acres of land. Some Fun Alpaca Info Alpacas originate from the Andes Mountains of South America. They have extra large hearts and lungs to … Continue reading 2022: Visiting Island Alpaca on Martha’s Vineyard
Happy May! I hope you're doing well in life. Sorry I've been off a bit. I've been soul-searching, praying, and researching what I should do next. Anyway, last Saturday evening, my mom, her friend, and I hung out in the downtown area, overlooking the east river / FDR and Brooklyn. It was a magical night. … Continue reading A Retro Cab and Night Life in the City

A Self-Portrait in Parque Retiro, Madrid. “What’s in a name?” Shakespeare once said, or at least one of his characters said. The name Susanna has been used for more than thirty years of my life. I’ve taken pride in it now, especially since I own my own blog with my full name. However, back when … Continue reading 2020: What’s in a Name?
A sunset view from my flight window. You literally could have your own row to yourself. There were so many rows to choose from. Also, I ended up watching three movies during this time: Joker, Jumanji: 2, and Frozen 2. (I don’t recommend watching sequels, haha! ;P) All photos were shot on iPhone 7 Plus … Continue reading 2020: Back to the States
Inside the Garden of Eden. Er, I mean, the Generalife. About a month ago, I booked tickets in advanced to enter Alhambra, which is known as the Red Castle in Arabic. I’m just mesmerized by the amount of detail put in these archways. This is an example of Magnificent Islamic Architecture; this was constructed in … Continue reading 2020: Road Trip to Granada: Day 3: Alhambra
These self-portraits have been taken in El-Escorial, España. I can’t help but see as I set up my tripod and steady my camera and press down the shutter that this all feels vain. What do you think?
