Local | San Francisco (I)

Some of the many things we enjoy in the San Francisco Bay Area are delicious food and beautifully preserved sceneries. Tartine Manufactory, often sought out locally and internationally, is a light-filled location that is a pleasant place to pass time. Visiting this spot at its opening hour is highly recommended, as we were able to almost have the place to ourselves (the tables are typically full!). The porchetta sandwich is simply mouth-watering, and take a loaf of porridge bread while you're at it.

We then travelled to the Presidio area to find ourselves being surrounded by eucalyptus trees. It was an enchanting experience as we explored the lush area after the city has experienced a season of heavy rain. Afterwards, we concluded the outing at Boba Guys with some fried chicken and sweet beverages. Looking back at the film scans have been a joy to see, as it reminds me of wonderful company! 

Local | Marin Headlands

The Marin county has had a special place in my heart and was an ideal location for a couple of friends to explore more of the San Francisco Bay Area. Despite being a night owl, I was delighted to wake up early in the morning to find the morning light softly illuminating the shorelines and landscapes. We were all captivated by the views of the hilly peninsula, and, of course, the Golden Gate Bridge's presence. 

Surrounding myself in the vast waters, endless horizon, and great heights, it is a wonderful reminder of Psalm 19 when the Bible speaks, "The heavens are telling of the glory of God; And their expanse is declaring the work of His hands.
