a travel and style blog
Although time marches on, (almost) as evenly as always, I feel as if I’m sitting down to write this post sooner each year. If you’re new around here, at the end of every year I like to sit down and reflect on the past twelve months in an exercise of gratitude and growth. Before moving …
Over the past year I’ve shifted most of my life updates to my newsletter, but this one is too big to keep confined within the walls of an inbox (and also to bury too far down in this post):
Nope, not my blog name – my name-name.
I admit I still feel a bit rusty at running this blog again. (Not that I was necessarily an expert at it before, but still). I feel like I’m still navigating what wayward looks like in 2021, and with the world the way it is (i.e., the days are still pretty slow around here) I …
Charlotte isn’t on anyone’s radar as an international city, but we are so fortunate to have people from all over the world in our community. And if you know where to look, you can find businesses from regions all over the globe. Quite a few of the area’s Latinx businesses were represented at last weekend’s …

Hey, hi, hello! I’m so glad you’re still here (and if we’re being honest, I’m so glad I’m still here too!). The weather is just incredibly beautiful for this first week of fall, and I’m feeling extra happy we decided to move to Charlotte. Right now my days allow for meandering walks, and I love …
Eighteen months. That’s how long it’s been since I’ve last logged in to this space – my own space – on the internet. So much has happened in the last year and a half, but in truth, my day-to-day looks about the same as it did the last time I posted here. There were so …
This feels weird – everything feels so strange. I haven’t been sleeping well, and I’ve woken up in a state of confusion each morning since Sunday ( as such, this post is a little out of the ordinary – more train-of-thought than planned content). As a whole, social-distancing and borderline self-quarantining isn’t that drastically different …
