What cities do you want to visit? I’m a wanderer who dreams of the seas, Of Lisbon’s bright winds and Dakar’s cool breeze. From Montevideo’s shores to Rio’s grand skies, I’ll wander the globe, my heart full of sighs. To Dubrovnik’s old streets, I’ll eagerly roam, Quito’s high […]
Is your life today what you pictured a year ago? Funny how life works. This time last year, I had a clear vision of what today would look like. I really did. Everyone told me that I could coadt this year because I had been so awesome. I […]

This past week, I fell deep into the world of espionage. From decoding secret messages to outsmarting nefarious agents, I binged spy movies and shows like The Agency, rewatched several Mission Impossible movies, and dove into The November Man and Beirut.
