I love to travel, try new foods (both simple and "exotic"), ingest caffeine, and watch political news coverage. Im a big pop culture junkie who isnt afraid to say she loves "In Touch" Magazine! A social marketing expert and psychologist by training who works in the public health field trying to bring a little common sense to it all.
All the world is my television and I like to provide commentary on it.
Cheers

Many years ago, I was a young girl at boarding school learning to be independent. It was a huge step for a young Hispanic girl from the Bronx to attend a boarding school way up north in Massachusetts. My family, especially my mother, was very sad to […]
I love to travel, eat out and drink mojitos. That is not my profile. It is just a life philosophy for me. It is not a bad philosophy, mind you. As I go out on travel, I love having my son with me. Seeing the world through his […]
I love catching sunrises. I am actually known in my social circles for my love of a sunrise. I get up and take my camera to the window every morning. I look to see what beautiful sunrise there is for I am grateful to have made […]
