train! For $29, I have a business-class seat for the hour-long ride to Los Angeles! It’s so scenic and relaxing!
At almost 37-years-old, still, about a month or so away, I can say with all my heart ♥️ that I am in the happiest space, by myself on a Friday night, waiting for the sunset — full of self-love and lots of gratitude. And it has nothing to do with a guy or my career, just me. 🫶🏽
Life update! I have been accepted into Grad School for the Master’s Program in International Relations in beautiful Aix-en-Provence,

I once dated a guy who told me, “What guy would date a woman who travels as much as you?” Ouch!!! Has any man ever been asked that? I truly want to settle down, and eventually start a family. Where is the guy who wants to travel the world with me? 🙃
When I was 16, I wrote a letter to the Editor of Cosmogirl magazine after seeing Jennifer Lopez (

Last night, I went out on a date. It’s been over a year for me. I have to admit, guys and dating have been the last thing on my mind. This guy did his homework. Flowers, dinner, and a great three-hour conversation.
This morning, we did a 6:00 am meditation at world-renowned yogi and visionary

’s Isha Institute. Afterwards, we hiked in nature. What a peaceful Sunday!
I absolutely love the train 🚆 system here in France. 🇫🇷 It’s simple to navigate, cost effective, and more environmental friendly. This week, I have taken the train to many places, including Monaco 🇲🇨 and Provence in

Another first for me was flying over Teotihuacán in a hot air balloon during sunrise. It was worth the 4 a.m. wake up call time. 🎈What an incredible way to see the pyramids from above! 🇲🇽

On this recent trip, I spent time in
#Cannes
and
#Paris

I miss you, Dad. 💔🙏🏽
It’s only been a few days. I stay awake at night crying, wishing you were still here. As we prepare for your funeral, I can’t believe you are gone. 🕊 My heart can’t accept it. Please watch over me.

Today is México’s Independence Day! 🇲🇽 As a Mexican-American, I am always very proud of my roots, culture, and heritage. Growing up, I spent summers with my grandparents in México City. My mother’s from México City & my father was from Michoacán. Earlier this year, I went back!
My Mom is home and recovering well from surgery. My Christmas🎄 wish came true! 💫 Thank you everyone for the prayers, thoughts, and love. Wishing everyone a Merry Christmas!
Next month, I will be the moderator for a major television network’s event! Ahh, I can’t even believe it! I’ve been watching this channel since I was a young girl. 🥳 More information coming soon!
I am turning 35 in a few months. While some people say, “you have plenty of time!” I get worried that time will just fly by. Now, I am really accepting the fact that I’m not married or with kids, yet. Sigh. 😔
Feeling THIS close to my biggest dream of all time. I woke up to an email that made me want to cry tears of joy. Over the years, I’ve put so much heart, passion, time, and vision into this life-long dream. This is the year! I feel it! ✨✨✨✨✨✨✨

I have not heard from my sister, who has been in Tulum since last week. 😳 If anyone knows when the phone signals start working there again, let me know.

Today marks one year since my father passed away. 🕯️ It went by so fast, yet, so painfully slow. People told me the first year would be the hardest. It’s so true. Grief is a beast. You do the best you can on how to carry it. I miss you and love you, Dad.
Happy

Today, my mom starts chemotherapy. Thinking of her and so many others who are facing cancer right now. It took me two months to process that she has Lymphoma. I am sending her all my love and strength. If you can keep them in your prayers. 💞
