Location: Joshua Tree, CA


I spent memorial day weekend taking in the alien landscape of the Mojave Desert. Climbed up and over giant boulders that looked like the crumbling ruins of Easter Island statues to take in sunsets that painted the sky in garish technicolor rainbows. Watched bats zigzagging through the air at dusk, saw more stars than I've ever seen in my life, and found myself humbled by the silence and stillness. The desert is a perfect microcosm of the beauty and harshness in the world.

  1. This looks so beautiful!! Where did you stay? I'm from LA and I keep wanting to visit Joshua Tree but I don;t know much about it. I know a lot of people do Air B&B.

    1. Hi Niv! We stayed in an Air B&B. This one to be exact: https://www.airbnb.com/rooms/722494. It was wonderful, but if we had a smaller group, I would have wanted to stay -
