🖤🐾☕️🛫🌌

Marseille! My honey took me on an adventure. First a bike 🏍️ (comme toujours) and then a hike to a waterside restaurant hidden in the Calanques for bouillabaisse. (Restaurant La Baie des Singes) Were heavily shushed 🤫 in the Basilica, had a walk around the old city (Le Panier) to take in some of the street art and found beautiful Abbey Vielle Charity which has a lovely terrace for lunch and an incredible collection of Egyptian artifacts including painted wooden sarcophagi. Our last night included a visit to .marseille for vinyl thru vintage speakers - great concept, great music, sexy vibes 🍑🐯. Had some choice beach time for fleeting moments. Loved this edgy city in the sun. 👻☀️

Scenes from France thusfar - including visits to the beautiful with friends and to to see Satyagraha by Phillip Glass. The opera’s message of non-violence and spiritual endurance really spoke to me. Meanwhile
Moxie is transitioning to France as if she’s always lived here.

While I was sick I didn’t make an official announcement. Now that I seem to be out of the woods with cancer I want to share that I am engaged! Juan Carlos has stood by me through my health struggles since last January. Quite a first year of an engagement. We made it, we’re here, and I’m going back to his home in Paris after not being able to travel for more than a year. Haven’t looked forward to a trip like this since I can remember. Moxie is also coming with. Life is good ❤️🐾
