All weekend I was thinking “let’s be where our feet are” but now I can’t help but wish I was back where my feet were. The Valley is an incredibly special place, but it all becomes what it truly is because of the family there with you. I will never stop cherishing every second along the way and will keep trying as hard as I can to think of the memories we made and not the distance between us. Until we see each other again 🫶 thank you @griz for cultivating the experience that brings us all together 🎷 11 of your sets this year still wasn’t enough!! #noodleheads #hopskipandajump #bananabread

Every time I think I’ve had the best week of my life, another week comes along and somehow takes its place. What a beautiful way to live a life.

Grateful hardly even begins to describe how I feel about this past week. I leave lighter, more authentic, more aligned, happier, and somehow with even more love in my life than I had before.

I'm exetremly grateful for my chosen family. For the kind of love that lets you be completely yourself. For the people who make life feel bigger, softer, weirder, and more meaningful just by being in it.

What a fucking gift!

she was a berry, she was a noodlehead, and she frolicked in the forest with all her favorite fairies 🧚‍♀️✨

thank you GRiZ for creating this space for me to be authentic, make new friends, and dance like nobody’s watching. the side quests were epic, the love is HUGE, and the memories will stay with me forever.

to my friends: new, old, and somewhere in between- thank you for loving me, i love you back. 🫰🏻

HAPPY FREAKIN STARSSSSSS

day 4s, outtakes, video dumps, and that one leap frog video i was supposed to put in my last post🥴 also there’s some hidden gems in some of those videos if you watch em all the way through cx
:
alright. last dancefest post before i get to some more much needed posts to make…
i am genuinely so grateful to have the privilege of having such an authentic and bonding experience with such a genuine, supportive, and lively group of people; and i’m so blessed to call these people my friends.
thank you to everyone in my group for literally just being yourselves. each and everyone of you brought a value to the group that no one else has to create one of the most degenerate and exuberant groups i’ve ever had the pleasure of going gremlin mode with.
dancefestopia is genuinely one of my favorite festivals bc there’s really nothing quite like it. you get main stage to have a good ass time with your friends, but once emerald goes quiet, the freaks and goblins come out to play at lollipop. and all the little spaces to explore like the domes, and the RV, and the string light experience, the lasers over the pond, the little village street of vendors… it is genuinely such a distinctive festival.
@dancefestopia, i might not be back for awhile… but i promise you 2026 wont be my last💜

The music, the friends, the trees, the waterfalls, the love, the laughter and the fun 🤍🌲

Camp Alderwild was something else. Tucked into the trees of Telluride, I found my community, all of us connected through our love of music. Thank you @ofthetreesmusic and all my friends for making this the most special and unique experience. I am filled with so much love and gratitude for this weekend in the mountains and will hold it close to my heart forever 🥹🫶

Camp Alderwild, idek what to say. What a unique festival experience. I’m saddened that it won’t be in telluride next year but excited to see what the Hummingbird has in store for us!
There’s nothing like packing the gondola with a wagon and all your friends and riding into the venue, then being caressed by energy of the trees and bass while dancing and frolicking with one another.
Definitely won’t forget these memories i made along side these wonderful new and old friends.
Till next year🌲
