Puerta Vallarta Mexico Visit

Puerta Vallarta Mexico

My girlfriend and I jumped aboard a plane and headed to Mexico to rest and celebrate a birthday. Mexico has such charm to it ALL deriving from the gracious nature of its people. They honestly enjoy presenting an experience.

Of course a trip to Mexico presents a opportunity to work on my photography skills. I present some of my photos!

And there you have it......a little slice of Mexico from the lens of Christian Allaire!

Yoga Retreat in Hawaii

San Anselmo, CA

Ahoy all. I recently spent 13 days on the island of Maui in the Hawaiian Islands for a yoga retreat. What an unbelievable experience it was and it convinced me that I'm ready to lead my own yoga retreats. More to follow on that score.

I practice with 15 other yogi's at a super resort call Lumeria near the northshore town called Paia. Check out the website.

I leave you with some photos's shot on my Canon or GoPro Hero 3. Check it out!
