3. Thrifting

As a fashion & sustainability enthusiast, I always find myself at thrift stores or at thrifting events. I love the community aspect of thrifting in PDX too, so I always have the best time supporting local markets :)

4. Traveling

Costa Rica 2025: I got over my fear of heights, tried plantains for the first time (highly recommend), and explored the local towns. #PuraVida

I find so much inner-fulfillment by venturing out and expanding my horizons, even if it means I have to step outside of my comfort zone. Traveling and immersing myself into different customs worldwide has allowed me to gain a greater appreciation for humanity, mother earth, and the little moments in life.
