Musings of an Eagle-Eyed Coder & Designer in the Making
This new year, I’ve had a great desire to seek a new career opportunity, because I need a new challenge this 2019.
I have more to give than giving screen announcements and running around until I get so overtired that I can’t sleep at night. Also, I really want to be part of a team that supports each other and I actually feel included within.
Despite my heart’s desire, it hasn’t been easy. Continue reading “Turning Rejection into an Advantage”
Since it is International Homo/Bi/Trans Phobia Week,¹ I strongly feel I need to point out that another kind of phobia exists:

In the States, I adored the Mexicans and met many people from El Salvador, which was new for me.
All my life, I’ve been very fortunate to travel to many places, but something changed by being in North America… Continue reading “Travel Tuesday: There Is So Much of the World to See!”
Now that I’ve ceased travelling for a bit, it really is time to write about all my experiences in North America.

On the road, I always wanted to be out there experiencing all that my new cultures had to offer. Not sitting inside writing about it. Plus, by going out and exploring, I would get the inspiration…
