New year! New resolutions! And same old brand new me… As we raise a goodbye toast to 2019 and welcome 2020, stronger and bolder than ever, I would like to say a big thank you to all the beautiful people that have inspired me and encouraged me to follow my heart and chase my dreams.
Sometimes while pursuing a bigger and brighter vision, we forget the very reason why we started this race. It is essential that we do not stray from our core aspirations while we are busy running after our ambitions.
My race started back in 2003, at 18 years old. I have always had a passion. Capturing people’s emotions, sharing the most wonderful stories and making a difference through my writing. From being a reporter for the criminal investigation beat to writing lifestyle feature articles, I must say I had the best of both worlds for over 12 years.
I could be spending my day knee high in the mud, in the middle of nowhere, on a crime scene, in the morning and sporting my Christian Louboutin heels at a fashion show, in a 5 star plus hotel, the same night, with the cream of the crop.
If I learned something in those 12 years, it is that what matters is not that you cover it all but that you cover what matters. And this new year is going to be exactly that. After 3 years, I have decided to get back to my first love. Journalism! To write about what I love, while making people discover or rediscover hidden gems. So, hop in if you need to know what is the latest fashion trend, learn about amazing destinations and cultures, and of course know where to book the best table in town.
Let’s raise our glass to 2020. May it be a journey back to the source for us all!
