Yesterday, I woke up at 5 am to meet an old friend to hike and watch the sunrise. I had forgotten the magic of sunrises and early mornings- when its the coldest time of the night and the sun slowly rises to warm up the earth. It was the perfect way to catch up with my friend and start the day.

After sunrise, we went exploring on the coast during low tide with my family. Tide-pooling is like taking a quick peak underneath the ocean because some marine life are able to survive out of water for short periods of time. Honestly, everywhere I looked I was completely awestruck at the strange beauty of the sea. Nature provides endless inspiration.
