On this day, I head to nearby Ocean Park for a stay at a holistic bed & breakfast. I also take in the street art of Calle Cerra in Santurce and danced the night away at a local spot with live music!

Puerto Rico: Day 3, Part 2

“Steady”
“You said I said ‘I love you’ like I would give you anything… and I would.”
On Forgiveness
“Show yourself compassion. What you know and understand now, you didn’t know before… that’s why it’s a lesson. You did the best you could at the time. Don’t hold onto anger, sadness, resentment, confusion, hurt and negativity. You are only losing precious moments of YOUR life.”
Puerto Rico: Day 2
“Jumping from the falls was such a spiritual experience. I truly think that solidified a turning point in my life and how I trust my Self…”
Puerto Rico: Day 1
Come along as I set out on my first solo trip for pleasure and relaxation. I head to Puerto Rico for a 4-day stay in Old San Juan. Upon arrival, I try some local cuisines, and visit the Poet’s Passage and Galeria Exodo.

“So many outside influences have tried to tell me who I am, what I can do, who I’m supposed to be; they place all these limitations on the full expression and progression of the very things that make me unique, that make me sacred.”
