This pandemic has really thrown everyone into a spiral. At first I felt pretty fine being home, as a natural homebody, but then days turned into weeks and weeks have turned into months and now it seems we’ll be closing this year the same as we started.

What has maintained me afloat has been the little things. Little pleasures that create a sense of routine, self care, and just overall wellness in my mind.

I would say body but let’s be real, I don’t exercise and really don’t like it haha. Probably should though but eh, it’s just the truth so I’m not gonna lie, ha!

Anyway, we recently went up to the mountains and stayed in a cabin. Then we got word that a really good friend was going to the mountains and so we jumped on the opportunity. All with safety precautions and we wore masks and the whole thing.

It was fun and so great to smell the fresh air and be in nature where our cell phones didn’t have signal. The best part of the whole trip? The actual drive there and back! It was drizzling and so we got to see waterfalls the whole way up, insane fog rolling among the mountains, and it was actually cold.

Puerto Vallarta doesn’t cool down until late October so it’s nice to be able to be in humid free cool air.

I posted a couple of images on my Instagram stories if you’re interested in snagging them as backgrounds for your tech.

All the photos were snapped on my Huawei phone (not an ad, although let’s talk Huawei?!) and it takes pretty stellar photos.

Hope you are all find small ways to keep afloat.

Today, for me, it was enjoying a great tasting coffee and remembering great trips into the forest.

Xoxo,
