Twenty-Five
by 2 Comments Dense. That’s the word I would use to describe this last year. Not just 2020, but my last year around the sun as I enter into my 25th year of this beautiful life. I was grabbing coffee with a friend and we were talking about how we were doing with all that’s going on...
Austin Update Pt. 1
by 4 Comments Three months. It’s been three months that I’ve been in Austin. Honestly it feels like three days. I think back to a year ago, when the idea of living in a new place was just a little seed in the garden of my mind, and then I think of today, with my fully furnished apartment...
End of an Era
by Leave a Comment Ya’ll, 2019 was a REALLY GOOD year. If I’m being completely honest, it’s been a while since I’ve been able to say I’ve had a good year. I know a lot of my photos and social media show my travels and friends and all the good going on in my life, but more often than...

This post is the second round...
2018: My Year in Review
by 3 Comments Can you believe it’s almost 2019! Who’s ready for a new year, new you?! To be honest, I often cringe at that saying because when I think about the changing of years, the moment the clock strikes midnight we don’t immediately turn into princes/princesses (because we are already kings and queens-DUH!). Rather, we are still...
And the SAVEUR Award Goes To… Somewhere Soleil!
by 4 Comments YA’LL. I DID IT. I WON. I am SAVEUR’S 2018 Reader’s Choice for Best Travel Blog. Even typing those words, with my little Le Creuset mortar and pestle award beside me, videos and photos of my award speech circling Instagram, the results posted on SAVEUR’s website, I still cannot believe it. There’s so many emotions...
