✨"In Los Angeles your eye keeps reaching for an endpoint and it never finds it, because it doesn't exist." - Susan Orlean

✨"Climb up the "H" of the Hollywood sign … In these stolen moments, the world is mine." - Lana Del Rey

👯‍♂️My sisters introduced me to the nature found within Los Angeles - one took me from hikes to & within the mountains & the other roller blading & kayaking at the beaches.

🌄My parents even got into the habit of hiking up & down the many paths of Griffith Park.

🔆When older, I was able to drive myself to the many well-known & hidden hiking spots found within LA. Jogging up & down Griffith Park, along with my doggo when she was still around, during the cold early mornings were the best part of the days.

🧘🏽‍♀️It was the greatest, most peaceful, most soulful part of the busy city life because once at top, on a clear morning, you could basically see ALL of LA all the way down to the coastline. It was the greatest sight & feeling, and yes, it even felt like you were within this hidden gem of the busy city feasting your eyes on the world & day ahead to conquer.
