How we’ve (really) been handling the pandemic

October 21, 2020January 4, 2021 No Comments

Most days I feel that I have to create very specific content to make money, stay relevant, and be on the top of Google’s mind. And sometimes I just want to chat…I used to do that on Instagram stories and, for some reason, have become rather shy. I think many of us have changed throughout […]

What I’m doing during this “break”

April 14, 2020January 4, 2021 2 Comments

The world is going through something big, something scary, and something relatively unknown. It’s affected industries beyond what people may have initially thought. Pretty much everyone is hurting and we are doing our best to survive–literally. Being inside for potentially weeks-on-end is daunting and, frankly, scary. I may be an introvert and used to working […]

My experience in Hong Kong during the protests

October 8, 2019January 4, 2021 1 Comment

This is my personal post about visiting Hong Kong during the protests. This is my account, my feelings, my emotions. They are all valid. My options on the matter will also be expressed. It’s how I see things and how I see right and wrong. You can disagree, but if you want to leave a […]

2018 – My year in review

January 2, 2019January 4, 2021 2 Comments

A funny thing happened in 2018: we didn’t have any trips planned at the beginning of the year and then I ended up flying on 26 planes and traveled for 117 days this year. I wasn’t really sure how that all happened, and then I took at look at what we actually got into in […]

January 12, 2018January 4, 2021 4 Comments

I’ve been thinking about my blogging goals for 2018 for a while lately. After the holiday break, Sean and I sat down and went over all my random notes that were all over the place to finally put everything in one place so I can easily see what I want to accomplish and the tasks […]

2017 – My year in review

December 29, 2017January 4, 2021 3 Comments

My 2017 year in review is very much a reflection of how I felt about the year, the blog, and general life. It was a strange year for sure. My focus was all over the place…which, I guess, really means that I didn’t have much focus. The first 3 months of the year was a […]

Why I blog – A back story and love letter

February 23, 2017January 4, 2021 No Comments

I used to scrapbook. I had the rolling bag with all the fun papers, stickers, crazy scissors, photo corners and more. I even went to Michael’s craft store when they had a sale on scrapbooks themselves. So, now I have a couple completely empty scrapbooks (but I still want to keep them–even though they are […]
