I always seem to have a lot of projects on the go, which is exactly how I like it.

This one began almost a year a go, upon my return home from my time in China/Nepal/Tibet/India. 

This trip was a big deal. Leaving home, traveling for the most part alone, language barriers, poverty, 

single white female, volunteering. 

But, above all else I was ridiculously enamoured with any dog I came across. 

They became my dearest friends, little loves I could dote on & feed & pat & be my dose of familiarity.

I took so many photos that I had to do something with them.

So I made a zine.

And 5 countries later I have many more stray dog opportunities to capture, so maybe one day a book, here's hoping.

This is 'dear rafi'.

My ode to my love.
