    Staying Ready: Prepping for a Long Haul Flight

    If you’re a frequent traveler, then chances are you’ve already gone through a dreaded long-haul flight at least once or twice. The more often you travel, the higher the chances of you booking a long-haul flight.

    They’re also becoming more and more popular, with Aviation JobNet reporting that Qantas is looking at a whopping 20 hour flight from Sydney to New York. While 20 hours may be a bit much, in a quickly globalizing world ten- or even sixteen-hour flights are a distinct possibility.

    There’s no way to be a 100% comfortable on an airplane, but you can at least make the most of what you have. In our post on ‘How to Pack Light for a 1 Month Trip in a Carry On’, we talked about packing for long trips— this time, we’ll talk about prepping for long flights.

    So sit back, get that paper and pen out, and get ready to make your list. (more…)

    Okinawa Apartment Tour, Work From Home Life, Birthday Surprises | September Vlog

    I can’t believe September went by so fast! Next thing I know, it’s already December and then it’s already a new year! Well, to keep myself present to what’s happening in my life, I thought I’d create vlogs that’s like a glance of each month. Kind of like an online video diary so to speak where I get to be present to life’s blessings and detours.

    I also want to share my life in a way that you might get a few takeaways from it. Like behind the scenes of how I create my content, work-from-home ruts and how to get out of it, my long distance boyfriend turned fiancé, or expat living in Japan. There’s a lot of different compartments in my life that I’d love to not only look back on, but also share with you.

    I hope you enjoy it! (more…)

    The Best Carry On Luggages for Women + Reviews By Travelers

    Pin_Infographic_Best-Carry-On-Luggages-for-Women

    I recently started traveling with a carry on luggage and it literally lifts a weight off my shoulders (I used to travel with a backpack).

    I’ve been influenced by the Japanese women I see here at the Naha Airport in Okinawa and noticed they all have one thing in common– they all travel a carry on luggage with a small purse to carry their essentials (passport, wallet, boarding pass, etc.)

    So I gave it a try and I love the change! My tiny shoulders no longer have to travel with 15 pounds on my back anymore *happy cry*

    So if you’re looking in to finding a carry on luggage (that fits most airline standards), here are the best carry on luggages for women!

They say a woman goes through three stages in life They say a woman goes through three stages in life: the maiden—focused on her own journey, the mother—fully expressing her ability to nurture, and the crone—using a lifetime of wisdom to give back. Looking back, my maiden years were a time of self-discovery. I was focused on figuring out who I was and the impact I wanted to make in the world. It was a time of growth, and that selfishness was necessary to shape the person I'd become. Now, as a mother, I’ve entered a new chapter—one that has been an immediate lesson on selflessness and unconditional love. It’s been 1.5 months since Liam was born, and I feel as though I’ve been reborn alongside him. The way I think, the way I move through the world—it’s all been altered. Everyday routines, like showering, eating, cleaning, or running errands, now feel like relearning a completely new rhythm. And this is on top of navigating the huge learning curve of being a first-time mom. But with every milestone Liam reaches, I realize I’m hitting milestones too. I’m growing alongside him—figuring out how to adjust and thrive in this new stage of life. Motherhood isn’t just about nurturing a child; it’s about discovering new depths within yourself you didn't realize you were capable of.  My biggest takeaway: Motherhood is not for the fainthearted, and I feel both challenged and grateful for this journey. #MotherhoodJourney #SelfGrowth #LifeTransitions
Welcome to 2025! 🎉 It’s a new year, a fresh c Welcome to 2025! 🎉 It’s a new year, a fresh chapter, and the perfect moment to dream big. This month’s wallpaper, for my email subscribers, features a simple reminder: “Live freely.” But what does living freely mean to you? Here’s a question to ponder: What would you do if you weren’t stopped by your excuses? Think REALLY hard. If fear, time, or circumstances weren’t in your way, what dream would you chase? Where would you travel to? Let your answers dictate your vision for 2025! For me, living freely is about saying “yes” to what lights me up—like creating for expression, and carving out moments of self-care amidst the beautiful chaos of motherhood. Every month, I design calendar wallpapers to not only help you organize your life but also inspire your day! This is a popular request from my followers who wanted to see a glimpse of their calendar in the quickest way possible. I hope you like the simple design. Subscribe to my email list to receive these wallpapers directly to your inbox every month & get access to my free resource library!

It's officially been one week since I went into la It's officially been one week since I went into labor. Liam started moving lower and lower into my pelvis—slowly but surely. Then, labor escalated quickly on the third day. I was on my hands and knees, moaning through waves of back pain. Vivek was always by my side, pressing against my back. I had to shift my mindset from "this is pain" to "this is productive pain." Each contraction was a wave I just had to ride out. With every wave, I was one step closer to meeting Liam. When Vivek and I finally made our way to the hospital, I was already 8 cm dilated. Time was blurring, and then I was at 9 cm. Then, suddenly, my body started pushing on its own, as if determined to eject Liam into the world. I was wheeled into the delivery room, where a giant mirror was set up in front of me. With each push, I felt the pain and the burn. With each push, I let out long, drawn-out groans—sounds I had never made before but felt so instinctive and primal. With each push, I kept saying, "I can't do this," but everyone around me assured me I could. And with the mirror, I saw myself and everyone bringing Liam into the world, one push at a time. The next thing I knew, Liam was on my stomach, and a huge rush of love overwhelmed me. I don’t know how to explain it, but it was as if I was high on love and nothing in the world around me mattered except for Liam, looking at me. I cried and fell in love with him instantly. There was an undeniable connection between us, as if we had been waiting a long time to meet each other. I cried out for Vivek and kissed him. We're a family of three now. My healthy boy was born on 11/24/24 at 2:43 PM. 7lbs 8oz, 50cm long. He's a fiery Sagittarius and came out so quick, like an erupting volcano 🌋
40 weeks. 10 months. Thousands of kicks, flips, an 40 weeks. 10 months. Thousands of kicks, flips, and hiccups later—here I am. I officially hit my due date yesterday, and now I’m waiting to meet this little soul who’s been growing inside me. 🤰💙 Weeks before I even knew I was pregnant, I had a dream. I was chasing a toddler, my toddler. He was running too fast, and I was out of breath trying to catch him. It felt so vivid, so real. Now, I can’t help but think his soul chose me long before I knew. And here I am, days away from welcoming his soul to this world. It’s wild to reflect on how much of life is spent waiting. But this wait feels different. It’s not just about patience—it’s filled with anticipation, love, and a quiet trust in allowing things to unfold on their own. I don’t know exactly when this journey will shift from pregnancy to motherhood, but I’m learning to embrace the stillness, the unknown, and the magic of this in-between moment. Some transitions can’t be rushed—they’re meant to be felt deeply, one breath at a time. #40weekspregnant #pregnancyjourney #pregnantpetitegirl #momtobe
The moment I started warming up bacon fat, Kimchi The moment I started warming up bacon fat, Kimchi hopped on the counter, plopped himself in a nearby bowl, and watched me cook. I'm pretty sure he was waiting for bacon to appear 🥓 #38weekspregnant #waitingtopop
