The Heroine’s Journey

The Bohemian Life

A year ago today, the worst thing happened that ever happened in my life… And the best thing that ever happened in my life occurred. I went to sleep one night in my two-bedroom house with my garden and I had just gotten enough teaching work to make a living. In the...

The Dog Days are over

Boho Pop Culture, Take a Stand

We have suffered through an openly racist, homophobic, sexist, and all-around disgusting human being for four years, and the nightmare is over. Well, almost. We have legal challenges and have to survive till January... but we can do it! Like many other people, even...

Boho family values: Jason Momoa & Lisa Bonet

Boho Pop Culture

Anyone who knows me knows I totally adore Jason Momoa. And loving Jason, you would think means I would hate the fact that he is hitched to Lisa Bonet, right? But seriously, they're so adorable together how can you even hate on her, despite the fact that...

Death is certain…

The Bohemian Life

(This post originally appeared on my previous blog, A Table for One Please, in May of 2013.) It’s 7 am on a Monday morning. For the last four weeks, I would have dragged my ass out of bed at around 5-5:30 am, waking up before the alarm went off because of some dream...

The Bohemian Life

This was originally posted on my travel blog, A Table For One Please back in 2012. With the creation of this site, I'm not sure what the fate of that blog will be yet, as I realized this nomadic theme encompasses who I am and how I approach life more than the "table...
