There are so many more beautiful spots.... I can't wait to share so many more with you :)
I encourage you to go out, have fun, and be yourself. Laugh as often as you can, it helps you live longer... so they say. Grab a friend, your family, or your significant other and go explore together! Take pictures, yes! ALWAYS! But, take time in between to live in the moment and learn about your self and those around you... those memories will make the images you capture come to life.



Xo always,

 Hi there. Hope you are doing well :)
 I am back home for the weekend and I am truly enjoying being at home, sleeping in my bed, enjoying home cooked meals, ya'll it is the BEST!
 Recently I have been talking with a lot of girls about self love. We may not notice it all the time but self love is one of the most important things for us to practice. We see social media, and believe that we have to look perfect, be perfect, act perfect, and that is not the case at all. We have to love who we are, and flaunt our imperfections. We are perfect, our own kind of perfect. We may not notice it either but we are all going through our own battles. It is easy to smile for the camera, it's easy to keep your head up for the gram, but life isn't like that. I remember wanting to look perfect, but I wanted much more than that. I want to be who I am even if people make fun of me and laugh at things I do or say.
 For instance, I love this image then you zoom in and me my little toes sticking out from where I was trying to stay balanced... some may notice others may not. But society has taught us to make fun of people because of small things like this. And honestly It doesn't bother me, I want to make you laugh, smile, giggle, that is what I want my blog to be about, apart from sharing my love for photography, adventure, and coffee I want to show you that you too can be yourself and own every second of it.
 The most important relationship is the one you have with yourself. I have always said, if you can't love yourself who can? The love we have for ourselves is what makes us see the world with different eyes. We realize how wonderful we are, what we can offer and what we deserve.
I want to remind you to always remember how incredible you are, don't let anyone tell you otherwise. You are yourself, beautiful, incredible, fun, and loving! We always have room to improve ourselves and thats such an incredible thing! It's like hey, I wanna be better and BAM there you are improving yourself! GET IT GIRL! I am always working on my self. It is quiet a challenge to change things about ourselves when it's all we have ever known but sometimes change is for the better. For instance... I get mad quickly. I dislike it so much but sometimes I rage and I can't stop myself from being mad. I have been working on it, trying to breath before I react in a certain way but not gonna lie it's so much harder than I thought it would be. Apart from that I am working on staying positive and teaching myself to keep looking on the brighter side of ever situation.

 I am learning to love myself more. And I don't think I have ever loved myself as much as I do now. I know the kind of person I am,  and I know my worth. It has taken 22 years but its never too late.
Some things about me,
I am generally always HAPPY.
I get mad and frustrated way too quickly.
I don't like to sit still unless I am binge watching netflix.
I like going to restaurants that have free chips and salsa.
I get frustrated when things don't go my way.
I am slowly working on making deeper connections with the people I love.
I am focusing on people who also focus on me.
I am growing and learning everyday.

It's something we do as humans, and I want you to know you are not alone. Anything you are facing right this second will get better. You go this...
Happy Weekend friends!
What are you doing to better your self? How are you loving yourself more? I wanna know!

What are you doing this summer?
Are you broke as fudge bunnies? Me too :(
Here are a couple ideas for you to do this summer/anytime at all!!! :D 

 1. Go visit all the hiking trails/parks in your city! Plan a picnic where you can bring food and fruit from home!

2. Go swim! Forget the apartment pool outside look for free admission pools or for rivers you can go swim/float at with out any entrance fee's! Again, bring food from home and plenty of water to enjoy your day! Don't forget your sunscreen!

3. Go near the closest airport, park your car around the area or a nearby park and watch the planes land and take off! If you can get as close as possible so that the planes pass right over you! Bring your camera for a fun photo session!
 4. Grab a group of friends and play board games! Cards against humanity, monopoly, UNO, you can even download a free version of heads up on your phone!

5. Take pictures. Okay if you are a girl I am sure you love this! Grab a bag fill it up with 3-4 outfits and go with your girlfriends or take your tripod to take pictures around time! Golden hour in the morning or get that evening shoot!!

 6. Find free movies around town! There are tons of places you can go watch free movies at a park! Check out Slab Cinema for free movie showings all year long in San Antonio!

7. Learn to cook/bake. You are going to the grocery store any way right? Skip out on the usuals and find online recipes to try and taste something new! Maybe the best decision ever!

8. Start a blog. WordPress.com is free. So is Blogger.com. Starting a blog is a blast. Use your creativity and build a following.

9. Attend a free workout class. Many gyms, bootcamps, etc. will let you try their facility or program at least once for free to help you get fit this summer! I always do free trials they are the BEST!

10. Watch the sunrise with some orange juice early in the morning. Find a cute spot and enjoy your time! Also.... watch the sunset, so romantic! 

11. Read a book, trade your awesome love story novel with a friends to read another cool book!

12. Write your own story! Get it published on amazon. 

13. Move your room around, have extra canvas at home? Let your inner artist shine! 

14. Have a garage sell. You know those shorts that don't fit anymore? Those gains are real! You need new stuff. Out with the old in with the new. 

There are tons of stuff you can do this summer without spending a dime. I know it's hard friends believe me, I know. However, we got this! Now go out and have a good time!

Let me know what you do! :p
