Black woman gazes into the distance, writes travel letters and inspiration for women travelers.

I travel to feel more. I write to bring you closer.

I'm Emi. Welcome to Voyage à nue.

Travel - Letters - Photographs

Voyage à nue began as a repository for my travel photographs.

But soon after, it became much more.

A library of letters from around the world reflecting on intimacy, vulnerability, spirituality, and the occasional whimsical moment.​​​​​

​You're welcome to stay awhile. Perhaps you'll find a friend here you can relate to or someone who might make you feel seen. When you're ready, join the Voyage à nue Lounge. New letters and galleries will find their way to you as they arrive.

​

Stay awhile,

Emi

To New Friends, Welcome.

Begin by meeting Emi, visit the latest gallery, or open the first letter from Melbourne.

THE LATEST OPEN LETTER

Nirvana?
Alone?

Bengie lent me her ears while napping in my arms. A cat seemed like the perfect audience for things on my mind.

Existentialism. Divinity. Hypertension.

​

She didn't mind hearing it all. I hope you won't either.

Little Things.
Big Difference.

Life Transition at 40

The Spirits of Cusco Know.

I can't be the only one who has had an inexplicable encounter before...

No more corporate job. No more heavy burden.​

​I have time to listen now. But then, which voice is mine?

No clue yet...

​So, I write to you who might be learning about stillness and surrender.

What I Miss about Being in Love

Sometimes, a few sips of coffee bring me a moment of clarity. Like what "being in love" truly means to me.

Letters, When They're Ready

I don't send newsletters. I send letters about the places I'm going, the things I'm learning, the things I'm not quite ready to say anywhere else.
