.

  • Finally joining the #entrepreneurgirlgang challenge!! Sundays prompt is all about what you do to stay sane 😅 .
.
Recently i've been staying sane by having a routine and investing in cute lil products that I love. It doesn't hurt that these are all pink, my favorite color! 😉🎀 .
.
I don't really care about brands but this morning was a perfect example of what I do to stay sane. I went to spin, came home and took a shower, used my new body scrub, washed my face, and then lit a candle before I started to do some blog work.
.
.
THAT is how I stay sane 😋 Does anyone do anything similar?? #morningroutine #pinkaesthetic #yankeecandles #selfcarefirst #staysane #collegeblogger #collegeblog #collegebloggers #bostonblogger #bostonbloggers #newenglandblogger #sundaymotivation
  • On this gloomy Thursday (at least for me in MA) here is a reminder to love yourself girl! .
.
Valentine's day is one week away so take the time to show yourself some love too, you deserve it! 💓✨💄👑🦋🌸🍉🥂🎀❣️ #selflovebaby #collegeblogger #valentines_day #galentinesday #massblogger #newenglandbloggers #bostonblogger #collegeblog #happythursdayyall
  • Hello! I have not posted in awhile and I feel as if that deserves an explanation. I have finally took the leap to look within myself for the answers I have been looking for (yes, usually you already know it!). I did a discovery call with @_alessandranicole_ and it was truly amazing!
.
.
I love this life I have found in blogging and I cannot wait to nurture it and grow within it even more. I am focusing on coming up with a plan that works for me and my life to be more productive to bang out more real, creative, and awesome content. .
.
It's scary to dig deeper into yourself and what you want, but it's also so so rewarding and exciting! I can't wait to share some of the ideas i've been coming up with!! 😉😌👌🏻 .
.
Has anyone else had an experience like this?? #selfdiscovery #blogginglife #bloggingcommunity #collegeblogger #collegeblog #blogginggrowth #realcontent #creativecontent #bostonblogger #bostonbloggers #newenglandblogger #bloggergirl #blogbabes
  • Is it bad that I already miss this Barcelona view while I eat my breakfast every morning??
.
.
I would wake up before class (drag myself out of bed at 10 am) eat some cereal and coffee with only milk and sit on the couch that faces this large window out into the city
.
.
I have never taken a jump like this before. Living in a different country for 3 months was so out of my comfort zone but I loved every second of it and I loved Spain. It is a very fun, energetic, and welcoming place. .
.
I hope everyone in the world has a chance to travel there and experience its beauty. I am also so happy that I finally got around to writing my very first "study abroad" blog post!!
.
.
Here are my 9 "insider" tips that I learned from living in Spain, things that no one will tell you.
