Happy first week of 2019! After flying back from New York for the holidays, I jumped right back into “normal life” in SF. Unlike the usual post-travel blues, I must say, it’s been the happiest I’ve ever been post-vacation. I think a big part of it is because the work days went by so quickly- … More First week back randomness and new routine
Over the past week, my entire family spent the holidays together in our hometown Poughkeepsie, NY. With our busy lives and living so far apart, it’s hard for our family to get together, so the week was very much a treat as we all took time off from work/school to be together. Our days were … More Holiday week with family in upstate New York + New Years in NYC
2018 was probably the most dynamic and crazy year of my life: getting my actuarial license, quarter life crisis, career change, new job, lots of travel (4 countries/30 flights!), changes in friends, changes in myself…what a year! Through this craziness, I also grew the most out of any year so far, and I wanted to … More 2018 Reflection
With the holidays coming up it’s been busy-busy over here! The social calendar was jam packed this past week – almost every day there was something fun going on!

After returning from my Puerto Vallarta trip, I luckily had a whole week to relax and recharge before starting my new job. I’ve been in an unlucky groove of getting sick after my big trips and so I thought it would be smart to allot some time to potentially recover in SF. And just like … More Last days of funemployment + a year of imbalance + excited for stability
I’m back from Thanksgiving weekend in Puerto Vallarta! Anna, Sarah and I booked this trip since we each couldn’t go home for Thanksgiving (we’re all from the east coast and flights were $$$), but we miraculously found cheap flights to Mexico, and so we packed our bags and I met them straight from my Guatemala … More Girl’s trip to Puerto Vallarta, Mexico
After a very active and busy first few days in Guatemala, the second part of my trip was spent relaxing in gorgeous Lake Atitlan. There are several towns surrounding the lake, and I chose to stay in San Marcos since it’s known for its hippie community, gorgeous surrounding nature, and relaxing vibes over more popular … More Guatemala days 3-5: Hippie vibes and restoration in Lake Atitlan
My Guatemala solo trip was a short but very sweet one. The trip was basically divided into two parts: a very active portion and then relaxing and restorative portion. The first two days were on the active side so let’s dive right in to that. Day 1: Exploring Antigua + reconnecting with Jared I took … More Guatemala days 1-2: Exploring colorful Antigua + epic hike up Acatenango Volcano
Aloha!! 🙂 It’s been a wonderful few days over here. Last week was basically spent solidifying things for my new job, closing things out from my current, and thinking about what to do with my time in between…there was lots of planning and moving parts but things are finally settled. My last day is this … More I have my life back + ocean beach adventure + another trip!
