Finally flying home today after 20 days away 😭😅

I can feel myself going into a dance heavy phase when I choose to listen to music 24/7. In my downtime, I’m consistently choosing Spotify over audiobooks, podcasts and phone call. I’m falling asleep to music. I’m listening to one song on repeat for an hour. Currently it’s 7am and I’m blasting emotional music in my headphones and I feel completely lost in my ideas for the music…

Another full travel day. Poland to Milwaukee. I can’t believe it’s been 15 days since I’ve been home so far.

Though so much about Stefan while I was in Poland— he grew up there and was a principal and choreographer for the Warsaw Opera Ballet. It only takes half a second of remembering how he transformed my love for ballet and my confidence as a young choreographer to make my throat tighten up. I miss him and I wish so badly I could walk into ballet class next week and say “guess what I just taught classes in Poland for the first time!” I hope he would be proud.

Thank you Poland for the beautiful classes✈️✨

Recommendations for things to do in Cracow, Poland. Go!!!

Been in Europe for 30 minutes and already feel like I can breathe again.

Threads is about to see all the photos before Insta.

The way I RAN to make my 10 minute layover from Switzerland to Poland. Can’t wait for this 2 day travel mess to be over.

New York ➡️ Poland ➡️ Milwaukee ➡️ LA where I have one week off then back on a plane for another little comp choreo tour leg ✈️🩰 These summer travels snuck up on me so fast. It’s interesting because I usually get homesick for LA but these days I feel so emotionally detached from that city, making the consecutive travels exciting! On the other hand, I can feel how my sense of “home” has thoroughly transitioned from a city to a person, ultimately making the homesickness even worse.

New York is weird and I like it.

What’s stopping you from doing that one thing you’ve always wanted to do?
