Eat, Pray, Love: Bali Travel Diary (Part 2)

The temples of Bali are not only breathtaking and ornate, they are a place of complete serenity and deep rooted history. In part 2 of my Eat, PRAY, love posts, I wanted to share some photos from just a slice of the most beautiful places in Bali, the temples. In Bali, Indonesia, there are a multitude of religions including Christian, Muslim, Buddhist and the predominant, Hinduism. It was immediately apparent to my husband and I when we landed and literally every single person was so welcoming and warm that something here was just different. It didn’t feel like the warmth we felt when we have traveled to any other country, it was heartfelt, genuine, and almost felt like these people were excited to see us, it felt great!

Eat, Pray, Love: Bali Travel Diary (part 1)

Let’s face it, Bali is one of the number one travel wishlist locations from almost everyone I speak to, and now I see why! This first post will be part 1 of 3 in my “Eat, Pray, Love: Bali Edition” series here on my blog. Eat, Pray, Love was such an amazing movie and although it only takes places partly in Bali, I sure found myself eating, praying and loving during my 10 days there so I figured the title was fitting! 😊 If you’re a foodie like myself, than this post is for YOU! I will be telling you all about the wonderful places I conquered “EAT” on my visit to Bali 🇮🇩.

My First Visit to Puerto Rico After Hurricane Maria

Puerto Rico After Hurricane Maria

Perhaps my most anticipated blog post is finally here! Just about 4 months ago, a horrific natural disaster known as Hurricane Maria fell upon the shores of Puerto Rico. My husband and I are both Puerto Rican, therefore we were deeply affected by this hurricane through our families and friends who remain on the island. One cold night in November, in the parking lot of a Walmart (yes, I remember it that well lol), we both looked at one another and decided Continue Reading…
