One of my biggest life’s beliefs is to not reinvent the wheel.  I’ve learnt time and time again that I don’t always have to hurt my brain to develop new solutions when there are so many real life ‘been there, solved that’ examples, just waiting for me to use!  You know how it is: I have so many other challenges in life to work through daily that when it comes to my passion, if there is already a solution on

I love to travel, always have.  It has been a part of my life since I was a wide-eyed little girl visiting New York for the very first time.  Back then, it was more about shopping, another of my great loves.  However, as I got older, and my interest in travel matured, my lust for all things shopping evolved into an intense curiosity about people, their daily lives, their culture and their history.   Nothing brings me more pleasure than sitting in

Let me break it down for you: I am an over-full-time employee at a local company in Trinidad.I have twenty days’ vacation leave per year. I am a mother and have to feed a twenty-year-old son who will soon start University in September. I have a mortgage and the regular household bills that come with that.I like clothes and jewelry…A LOT! I do NOT have a trust fund however hard I wish NOR do I have a sugar daddy, yet!  Just kidding! But despite all
