Into the Garden – Joining the Seacoast Artist Association

For a traveler setting in roots can be challenging. While I’ve realized full time travel out of a backpack isn’t my thing I find settling down particularly difficult.

100th Youtube Video

Posting my first online video was challenging. I filmed it at least 15 times and while editing it I criticized every little piece of it. My hair, my voice, my thought process.

Liebster Award : I’ve been nominated

I’ve been nominated for a Liebster Award! 

How exciting! 😉

Artistic Feature Friday: Illustrating Happy New Year

Moving to WordPress

After much hemming and hawing I have officially started the move from Wix to WordPress. It was a tough decision since WordPress.org comes with a huge learning curve. I love the ease of Wix and enjoy the look of the website but due to the inability to reduce site loading time and the inability to add SEO to individual posts I decided […]

Video: Gingerbread House Challenge

Spending Christmas so far from family is difficult part of living the full time travel lifestyle. Things don’t always work out the way you planned. Fortunately I still got the chance to visit my husband in South Korea and spend some time with him.

For fun we decided to build a gingerbread house and make a competition out of it. We filmed our […]
