I’ve always been a creative person. I like good design, good food, and anything funny. A friend asked me what my blog would be about and to be honest, I couldn’t answer her. Then I realized that this is a blog. Not a cover letter, or a college application or anything that needed to be spelled checked. This is just a blog about, I guess, whatever I want. Sometimes I'll write about my obsession with the mountains, hiking adventures, and failed attempts to forage. Then maybe I’ll write about how much I love food and what I cooked that day. Maybe I’ll just ramble about my nomad tendencies and profess my love for Southeast Asia and how I weirdly miss the smell of fish sauce in the morning. A blog about travel adventures, my favorite pickle recipe, how much I think about the sea, running, my fashion wish list, non-profits I wish I worked for, and of course, design. So, to sum it up, its a blog about me putting things up on the internet and maybe just maybe someone will find it interesting enough to follow.

This is mostly an exercise to keep my creative side flowing and have the guts to show it to the world. Being an almost 25 year old I find my introverted side taking presence in my life more than before. This is a way to keep things balanced and avoid becoming someone I don't know. So I really hope anyone who finds themselves in this blog enjoys it and makes something out of it. I should add I’m also making it a point to write it however it first comes out of my mind, no real spell check, and no way of knowing if the next entry, sentence, or paragraph will be in spanish, english or spanglish. Hope you enjoy.

Finally I finish with a quote that has been on my mind recently...

“... they were not really afraid. They were just afraid of being afraid.”
― Malcolm Gladwell, David and Goliath
