I'm very excited for this new creative endeavor! For a few months towards the end of my first year teaching I found myself questioning what my passions were and how I could nuture them. Well it turns out I have a lot...no I mean...A LOT of passions: food, travel, literature, fashion, diy, and a deep love for my home New York City.
Then I remembered how much I used to love writing for my college newspaper, The Bottom Line, where I was the lifestyle writer there. Well after much pondering one thing led to another and I decided to create this lifestyle blog. It's very much in the baby stages and there is a lot of work to do still (hello blog interface!) However the full version of the blog should go live by early October.
I want this blog to speak to the experiences 20-somethings are going through as we are all trying to establish ourselves in our careers, community, and identity. Posts such as: how to go more "green", traveling on a budget, entertaining, dating in the city (oh dear), finance advice, fashion choices, etc. is what you will find here. I know this blog will evolve and grow and I hope that you come along for the ride.
Thanks for taking the time to read and have a wonderful labor day!
P.S. A great article in the New York Times about the price 20-somethings pay to live in the city
