My 2020 fitness journey
At the beginning of 2020, I set a goal to lose 5-10 pounds before my trip to Bali. Well, I didn't go to Bali and I also didn't lose 5-10 pounds. Before quarantine, I was determined to finally get in shape. I even started going to my least favorite place again...THE...

I’m back!
Wow I am finally doing what I told myself I was going to do years ago. In 2017, I started a blog and I quickly found it hard to stay consistent. I allowed work, travel, and everything in between to push this project to the back burner for quite some time. Well...we...
