Us

Hi!  Welcome to my little space.

I’m a mama of two little people that are growing too fast. A wife to a beautiful man. This, my family, makes me want to be a better person.

I’m originally from Chile but I’ve lived my adult life in Oregon. I’ve learned and grown up in this beautiful place. Funny how I’m so far away from where I was born and these places are so similar in many ways. Maybe this is why Oregon feels perfect.

We are a life-learning family. We like adventures, camping, crafting, and doing fun things together. But we try for the most part to not forget to be *here*. Right now.

I love to take photos.  I also love to knit, sew, draw, do paper crafts.  And in reality, I enjoy learning to do new crafts.  I’m learning to sew and quilt and love the quilts I’ve made so far.  Most of them have been made for special people.  I also enjoy cooking, and canning and preserving our foods.  I believe it’s much better to grow your own foods and see them grow and know what you are feeding your family.

This year we also made reality an idea we’ve had for almost 20 years.  We finally have our own bees and we are learning so much about them.

We are planning We are living a big adventure in our lives for this year  and can’t wait to see what life brings us our way.  We will be are sharing as much as we can here in this space and I hope you enjoy it.

We lived in India for 5 months, a big adventure for our family, and we learned and experienced so much.  I started this blog then, so we can go back and remember more details of our days there.  Since back, I have continued to write in the blog, to keep in touch now, with our friends from India, as well as our families and friends, and anybody interested in what our days are spent.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy my small creative space here online and come back soon! Leave me a comment.  I love reading them it makes it more of a conversation.

Have a beautiful day.
