    I’m trying to get back into reading blogs in hopes they’ll motivate me to work on my own. And with all the great content out there, it’s not a hard task to take on. Today I’m rounding up a few links that caught my attention. I hope you enjoy reading and have a great weekend!

    I. 10 Healthy Recipes

    I’m not one to feel guilty about my eating habits over the holidays. After all, I don’t get to eat my mom’s tamales more than once or twice a year, so I might as well indulge. But, I am a fan of putting healthy things into my body any time of the year, and this post from Design Lovefest has some great meal ideas.

    II. How to Recover if You Overspent During the Holidays 

    One thing I am feeling after December is broke. Buying presents for a family of six and travel ain’t cheap. I’m making it my goal to get back to saving this month, and this post from the Everygirl provided me with some great tips on how to get back on track.

    III. 30-Day Decluttering Guide

    I’ve also been on a cleaning spree and this guide from the Glitter Guide has made the process seem more manageable. It provides you with a different task to focus on each day, so you’re not trying to do it all at once.

    IV. 10 Non-Alcoholic Drinks for A Dry January

    Are any of you joining me on a dry January? Then this list is for you. I suggest you bookmark these recipes to share with your bartender, just in case you still want to hit the bar with friends.

    V. My 5-Day Tulum Travel Guide

    I don’t shy away from shameless self-promotion. This is my first lengthy blog post in a while and it has some great suggestions for how you can spend your vacation in Tulum.

    My Tulum Travel Diary

    Bike Riding in Tulum, Quintana Roo

    There’s no denying that turning 30 is a huge milestone. That is why I knew that I couldn’t go without doing something big to celebrate. With that in mind, a few months ago, my sister Ale and I started planning a trip to Tulum to celebrate me entering into a new decade.  Although my birthday is in January, we decided that December would be the best time to head down. It’s right before the high season and I could combine my work holidays to get more time off.

    Tulum is small compared to other tourist destinations like nearby Cancun, but that doesn’t mean there’s not a plentitude of things to do. Ale and I had more than enough ways to spend our time during the 5 days we were there, and that’s without leaving the city. So, if you’re planning a trip there yourself, I’ve summed up our daily adventures to offer you some inspiration.

    Wishing You A Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!

    My Christmas Outfit

    I wanted to take a moment to wish you all a merry Christmas and happy New Year! While I’ll usually do a roundup to culminate the year, I took a hiatus from blogging most of 2018. However, if I had to choose a few highlights from this year, I’d pick New Orleans and Palm Springs.

    Focusing on other things has been good for me. During my break, I have been making fun memories and getting tons of rest. And, I can wait to share some of those fun moments with you in the new year.

    One of those adventures was my trip to Tulum this month. My sister and I made the trip to Mexico as an early 30th birthday celebration. It was refreshing to spend time by the beach, explore nature and get to know more about the history and culture of my motherland.

    I also have a few outfits that I photographed a while ago, and quite a few ideas for future posts. Mostly, I want to share more about my everyday life in Portland and DIY projects. So watch out for new things in the new year! Until then, I hope you continue to enjoy the season with family and friends!
