Hi everyone!! Welcome to my blog. This is something that I created because of my instagram, I enjoy writing and I thought that since I enjoy sharing my life through video making and photo taking- why not write it down too. Almost like a scrapbook made up of words in which I can share, and who knows maybe even a podcast recording here and there.
For this first post, I’m going to give a thorough introduction of myself and who I am!
Okokokok I was born on April 11, I am an Aries zodiac sign. I was born in Minneapolis, Minnesota and have lived here ever since. Lowkey, wait side train thought lol, I feel like Minnesota is such a hidden gem- we really feel every season in this state. Fall, winter, spring, summer, the transition months, and the different weather we have that can be utterly different every day. I love April through December, January through March can be rough, it's just like bleh and not fun. Anyways moving on… I ride horses! The main horse I ride is named Max, I am also working on training a different horse named Bindi. Max is 13 years old and a registered paint horse. I have been riding him for just over two years and he is the epitome of my heart horse. I don’t think that many people know just how much Max really means to me. This past summer I had the opportunity to bring Max to Pinto World and omg it was everything and more I could have imagined. I can’t wait to go back!! Bindi is a beautiful mare and she is so incredibly smart. I am training her to do the ranch events right now and have a show coming up soon in October. I have been riding horses since I was seven years old and I can’t imagine doing anything else.
I study at Saint Paul college and I major in culinary arts. I have always loved cooking and I truly believe it is my passion and calling in life. I love sharing my recipes and good meals with people and it truly makes me just so happy. I am a barista at a local coffee shop that my aunt and uncle own, I really enjoy working there as I literally drink coffee like I breathe air. I am a bit of a coffee snob but my favorite drink changes every week it feels like lol. Right now I’d say my go to is an iced lavender vanilla latte with 3 shots of espresso. My favorite meal to cook is probably a soup of some sort, I feel like soups and stews are just so cozy and warm and bring you back to good memories. My dream is to own a retreat place where I have a yoga studio, pottery studio, trail riding for horses, a place for people to stay overnight, restaurant, coffee shop, and outdoor trails with a big lake. I’m not sure where or how but I hope I will get it one day!
Otherwise, I love practicing yoga (specifically hot yoga), journaling, spending time with my friends and boyfriend, hanging out with my dog Dozer, traveling, being outside, taking pictures and editing them, posting on my instagrams, listening to music, trying different coffee shops around Saint Paul and Minneapolis, watching Gilmore Girls, making art, recently I started snowboarding, and then really just experiencing life to the fullest!
I could go on and on describing all these in detail but I don’t want to bore you guys lol. I hope you will come back and read the next post.
Until then!
