The best advice I can offer anyone is to stop worrying what others think or may think of you, to live your life authentically, to the fullest, all while loving and embracing who you are!
———————————————————
I get a lot of messages from people asking me when I transitioned and if it’s too late for them to do so. I also get a lot of people saying, “I’ll never be passable” or “my family and friends will never accept me.” ———————————————————
Being true to who you are in a world that seems to hate and fear us, can be terrifying so I understand the concerns. However, the hate you have to flush out the most, is your own. Stop beating yourself up, feeling shame and guilt for being “different.” The journey to authenticity has no age limit and “passability” is a false construct based on outward appearances of vanity. True beauty shines from within and is reflected through your smile and your heart. Love and embrace who you are…even the flaws!! Also, if your current family and friends won’t accept you, you’ll find a new, chosen family that will embrace you with open arms. Let go of the fears and chose to live your life

For me, part of the fun in cooking is figuring out what I want to make and then searching for the ingredients. My three main rules for cooking are it must either be 1. local, 2. organic and/or 3. authentic. I do my best to buy things that are in season and from local farms. If I can’t do that, I make sure what I’m buying is organic. If that proves impossible, I find the most authentic form of the…

One of my favourite views in Trinidad: from the tower of the Museo Histórico Municipal. You can see Topes de Collantes, Plaza Mayor and the Iglesia Parroquial de la Santisima Trinidad.

Walking along any street in Trinidad, it’s easy to understand why UNESCO included this beautiful city to the list of list of World Heritage Sites!

What makes you vulnerable makes you beautiful…there’s a word for it: authentic
Vulnerability is a scary thing. We don’t want to look weak. We don’t want people to pity us or judge us. We know we can’t be perfect, but we don’t want to seem too imperfect.So often, we think our imperfections are our flaws. However, we shouldn’t confuse the two or make them interchangeable. Because our imperfections…
Castillo Wedding | Austin, Texas
Shot a lovely outdoor wedding about a week ago in Austin for one of my lovely friends. She looked dazzling on her wedding day and everything was incredibly unique. Almost done with these edits, so be on the lookout for that!
