Connections and Aloha

Posted on June 2, 2024 by Mokihana

I’ve been thinking a lot lately about connections…connections I have with people near and far. Thanks to the internet, I have friends from all over the world.

I love supporting this company in Fiji. I bought several of these ladybugs, and they’re adorable. This sewing machine is hand-cranked and I thought it’d be interesting to post a photo of this.
