Welome!

Hello everyone and welcome to my blog!

I have been shooting and writing for as long as I can remember. A reserved, quiet, and reflective introvert by nature, I’ve always best expressed myself through writing. After thinking about it for quite some time, I finally decided to start sharing my writings, along with the photos that help tell the story.

I was born in New York City, raised in Miami, then lived in Fort Lauderdale for ten years where I built a life and career for myself. I had it “all” but also had an incredible hunger for life, travelling, and gaining new experiences. Then one day in 2014, I finally packed it all in and followed my heart to Italy. I wasn’t sure how long I was coming for at the time, and every year I would say “I’ll stay one more year.” Well, I’ve been living in Rome ever since, teaching English for a living and travelling through Italy and Europe in my spare time. I’ve collected so many photos and stories along the way, and I wanted a place to put it all together and share it with others.

Thus, this is a glimpse into my inner world, my experiences, and the beautiful places I’m fortunate enough to visit along the way.
