If you ever decide to visit (after COVID of course) check out my travel guide on my blog. So many great places to visit and fun things to do! http://www.grasiemercedes.com/travel/bermuda/ #travelphotography #bermuda #pinksandbeach #thelorenbermuda #travel

My favorite thing about LA are the beaches in Mali

My favorite thing about LA are the beaches in Malibu. They're where I go when I need a reset or to just breathe in some fresh, ocean air. Lately, I've been even more appreciative of having this beautiful coastline less than an hour drive away. So I was not surprised when @DavidYurman reached out with the concept of "a virtual summer road trip to the special places around the country that have inspired David Yurman designs" naming the California coastline as one such place! #DYRoadTrip #DYPartner #Malibu #DavidYurman

2018 Las Vegas - From Africa to just outside of the Las Vegas strip, today’s #imisstraveling photo comes from a place a lot closer to home. Seven Magic Mountains is an art installation by UGO RONDINONE that’s colorful and breathtaking. And still open if you’re in the area and want to check it out. #sevenmagicmountains #lasvegas #travelphotography #ilovetravel

African sunset. Another shot I’m super proud of 🥰 I used to actually use a real camera to shoot my photography. Now I just use my iPhone 11. Lol #throwback #photography #southafrica #sunset #canonphotography #travel #travelphotography #imisstraveling

The home of a friend of a friend and I love it. She designed it herself too!!! And has an amazing company of curated vintage rugs that I tagged. Interior design intimidates yet inspires me. I’m not great at it, so I look to others to get ideas. Like this amazing place and my favorite designer @sarahshermansamuel. She’s incredible too. Who’s your favorite interior designer?

One night I dreamed a dream. As I was walking alon

One night I dreamed a dream.
As I was walking along the beach with my Lord.
Across the dark sky flashed scenes from my life.
For each scene, I noticed two sets of footprints in the sand,
One belonging to me and one to my Lord.
After the last scene of my life flashed before me, I looked back at the footprints in the sand.
I noticed that at many times along the path of my life, especially at the very lowest and saddest times,
there was only one set of footprints.
This really troubled me, so I asked the Lord about it.
"Lord, you said once I decided to follow you,
You'd walk with me all the way.
But I noticed that during the saddest and most troublesome times of my life, there was only one set of footprints.
I don't understand why, when I needed You the most, You would leave me."
He whispered, "My precious child, I love you and will never leave you
Never, ever, during your trials and testings. When you saw only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you.”

I took this photo in Mozambique because it reminded me of this religious poem “Footprints in the Sand.” I went to 12 years of Catholic school and remember seeing an image like this with this poem written on it in one of the nun’s office. It stuck with me. Still does. I no longer consider myself Catholic or religious but I do believe in God or some higher being who guides me so this still resonates. I really love this exploration of old travel photos and what it’s bringing up for me and I hope you do too. Have you heard of this poem before?
