Exploring a more sustainable Napa Valley ♻️ 🍇 with @carnerosresort So excited to share more about this stunning property with you from our road trip with @staybeyondgreen. Seeing how hospitality brands are weaving sustainable practices into every part of their ethos and business this week has been really inspiring. A few things that stood out about Carneros: 🥬 The property is blooming with incredible gardens and fresh produce everywhere you go, and if you eat at @farmatcarneros there's a big chance the vegetables on your plate were picked fresh that day (plus they compost all food waste and repurpose used cooking oils as biofuel)! 💧The resort built its own wastewater treatment plant, allowing them to reclaim the property's water used and then repurpose grey water for landscaping irrigation. 🐝 Carneros is keeping the ancient art of beekeeping alive with their own on-site program (photo 5). We got an in-depth look at how they support the bees on property and why this is such a crucial piece to the health of crops, not just in Napa Valley but across our planet. 🔌 The resort also supports electric, with four Tesla charging stations, two all-purpose chargers and the staff's vehicles are all electric as well 🙌🏼 And this is just a few of the many sustainable initiatives they are working on 🥰 #momentsatcarneros

One of my favorite things every day was watching t One of my favorite things every day was watching the transformation from day to night on the playa. Pure magic ✨ #burningman2023 #burningman
Raining Man 2023… 10 years in the making 🙌🏻 Experiencing Burning Man has been something I’ve been dreaming about for years, and going this year was one of my biggest manifestations come true. There were many aspects of Burning Man that met my expectations, some that were completely different than what I imagined and things that blew my freaking socks off—like the sheer volume and magnitude of art installations, creativity, LED lights at night and art cars on the playa. There were many art pieces that I never saw throughout the week (and I was on playa for TEN days) and an overwhelming amount of things to do and see. You can’t possibly do it all and the serendipity of your own personal experience compared to someone else’s is all part of the magic. Everyone can have a totally unique burn. Some highlights of the week… Participating in a beautiful and wacky playa wedding. Meeting so many incredible new humans through our camp and group of friends. Countless nights staying up through sunrise. Getting to witness the positivity and principles of radical self reliance and community hard at work when the rains came and threatened everyone’s original plans for the burn. Feeling the most childlike sense of wonder everywhere you turn. There really is nothing else on the planet quite like Burning Man. Seeing the incredibly wise @john_wineland speak at Playa Alchemist And being on playa for 10 days meant that for my first burn I got to see the full progression of the city being built and then burned to the ground 🔥 I didn’t bring my camera to the burn this year, but these are a few moments and memories and people I will cherish forever 💛 #burningman #burningman2023
