Now in 2026, I so look forward to more learning, more traveling, and more meaningful interactions. 🧳

Laurita, a young, light-skinned Latina woman wearing dark sunglasses, stands and poses in front of a metal fence in Paris. The Tour Eiffel can be seen behind her, at a distance. Laurita is wearing a light-blue blouse with an embroidered blue floral pattern, and she is leaning against a tree.

A new year brings hope and new possibilities, and opportunities for personal growth. ✨

I feel as if I lived a whole lifetime last year! This photo was taken in Paris on July 14th during one of the most iconic months of my life. ❣️

Mi gente, I just saw the first Coca-Cola “Santa Packs” ad of the season. Welp. I guess it’s time to bring the tree out.

Also, if someone could please defrost Mariah, that’d be great.

Please, if this is you, take your racism elsewhere. I love to watch shows like SNL that help me find some levity in the darkness, and so I can enjoy a good laugh— in English or in español. 🇵🇷🇺🇸
