Fotografo de Bodas, Santiago

September 21, 2010

This past weekend Seba and I had a rare weekend off so we decided to take full advantage and go stay at a nice hotel in downtown Grand Rapids. We got to walk around and see all the statues and cool stuff they’re putting up for Art Prize (a GENIUS marketing initiative by the city of GR), eat really delicious food (at the recommendation of two of our awesome clients/friends) and just generally relaxed.

We also stopped into a luggage store and I picked up a Britto wallet/passport holder. My beloved old passport holder, given to me by one of my besties, has been worn to death over the past couple years and is falling apart at the seams so I was forced to part with it. But Andi and her Britto luggage inspired me to give the new passport holder a shot!

Isn’t it cute?!?

I ran into someone from high school at the grocery store the other day and he said, “Man, from what it looks like on Facebook, your life is pretty sweet!” It is. I’m not denying that at all. But fact of the matter is that I only blog about the exciting stuff, not my regular day to day life. Of course I’m going to post about going to go stay at a baller hotel for a weekend away. Of course I’m NOT going to post about sleeping in my mom and stepdad’s basement (Seba on a futon and me on a twin bed) every day. Of course I’m going to post about getting upgraded to first class. Of course I’m not going to post about how tiring it is to travel on such a regular basis. You have to take it all with a grain of salt.

Seba and I are absolutely blessed beyond belief to do what we love for a living, travel and best of all, make our own schedule and spend our time together. But it’s not all as glamorous as it looks. I get defensive when people assume our life is perfect. It’s not. At all. But I wouldn’t trade places with anybody else in the world, that’s for sure

You mean airline BS and working on Saturdays all of the time isn’t glamorous? HA! I love the passport holder.

The new passport holder is ADORABLE. My aunt gave me a nice passport holder the first time I travelled to Italy. Love it.

Oh Kyle, well, if you ever did want to post about any of those things that you don’t post about – I am sure I’d read them with as much enthusiasm as do the happy posts with the pretty pictures.

Es tan cierto! no hablaremos sobre cosas desagradables, no mÃ¡s de lo necesario… en los cuentos y pelÃculas – asi como en los blogs – solo vemos una parte de la vida de esa persona… siempre hay mÃ¡s!

Un abrazo grandote.
