AL RITMO DE SAMBA

April 20, 2015

¡Así fue! Todo comenzó con mi primera visita a Brasil en medio del verano de 1985. Mis padres decidieron llevarme en un viaje a este maravilloso país, como regalo de cumpleaños por mis 15, en lugar de tener un Quinceañero (la fiesta con que tradicionalmente las niñas que cumplen 15 años lo celebran en Perú y la mayoría de países latinoamericanos). A pesar de la emoción y la curiosidad por saber lo que encontraría en esta aventura, nunca esperé que este viaje marcaría un hito en mi vida.

HOW I'M SPENDING MY FREE TIME NOW THAT I'M NOT TRAVELING
September 18, 2020

There are a many reasons why people travel. Some say that getting away and exploring places allow them to appreciate our planet’s beauty and diversity. Others may do it out of curiosity or to fight boredom. In my case, I travel not only out of genuine interest in getting to know other cultures and as a path to personal growth, but also because travel is fundamental to what I do to earn a living.

In my first Instagram post of the year, I said that my plan for 2019 was to keep exploring. Little did I know then that would include leaving Atlanta for good the next month. It’s been 8 months since I moved to Miami because of a job opportunity and I think it’s about time I share with everyone the best about this experience so far. Here’s a short list of those things, in no particular order.

5 PLACES IN ATLANTA I LOVE
May 22, 2019

As some of my readers may already know, I lived in Atlanta, Georgia for almost 10 years, before moving to Miami this past February. I can’t really say why, but in Atlanta I felt right at home from day one. And although I saw it change quite a bit throughout my time there, I still love it very much and I also miss it now and then. I had started writing this post when I was still living there and, since I was feeling a bit nostalgic in recent days, I just couldn’t procrastinate anymore…I had to finish it so I could share it with y’all. These are 5 places in the A that I really enjoy, in no particular order.

MY PERSONAL FAVORITE MEXICAN EXPRESSIONS
September 5, 2018

I had the good fortune to spend seven and a half years of my life in beautiful Playa del Carmen, Mexico. As a native Spanish speaker, adapting to my new home was pretty smooth for the most part, although I did find some differences between Peruvian and Mexican culture (which is quite normal, of course). Those differences were probably more noticeable in both our accents and terminology. Here, I am sharing a short list with a few expressions Mexican frequently use that I really like.
