Hits and Misses of a Girl Wannabe.
Yes, finally, writing about our vacation that happened months ago in the island of *drumrolls* - SEYCHELLES! This country has been on my wanderlist ever since Prince William and Duchess Kate Middleton flew there for their honeymoon, because, well, Prince + Duchess + honeymoon - you get it, right? Well, it wasn't until last year when …

Hello, Happy New Year! I'm a little bit late - as usual, but then again, better late than never, right? 🙂 Last year has been a whirlwind of mostly ups and occasional downs. Everything went by so fast that the next thing I knew, we were already welcoming a new year. 2017 kickstarted with a …

Already more than a month ago and the perpetual summer we had on this wondrous place still lingers in my mind. Its fine, white sand perfectly complements its calm, turquoise water that is so refreshing, we almost never wanted to stay dry. Three days of isolation (no wifi and phone signal) and an unspoilt island …
