Alone in the world

"Where is Home"

Home could be anywhere but at this time and moment in my life I’m choosing here,

These are some of my favorite paintings lately,

See you around this piece of earth.

Hawaiian palm trees in Noir

I love driving around this black and white Paradise, I love blasting music in the car and getting lost in the corners of the island, I’m surrounded by beautiful palm trees, away from all…

Birthday chica

Another year far away from everything, I’m grateful to be here and be able to have a roof and enjoy the ocean.

it feels like this is just a life experiment to me, I’m learning and loving myself in many ways, Happy Birthday to me.

año 1

1 año living on a Distant Island

Clouds over mountains

I’ve been tricked and trapped on a different dimension, I don’t have any clues of how I got this far but I’m here for an unknown amount of time, could be forever. I feel on hold, like I’m between eras and in between people I don’t know at all. I’m also unknown.

Soy las rosas, you're my ocean

I will never stop doing what I love,

I love the simple things in life,

the ocean brings me joy, it reminds me of how big and tiny things are,

I see so much beauty everywhere

and at the same time so much dirt and crazyness.

This is a whole new world.

being hard on hardboiled eggs

Hi,

This is just me venting about hardboiled eggs, I usually cook them myself but today I ran out of them so I went to the local market to get some, I think it’s the last time I get hardboiled eggs from anyone else, I’ve been disappointed 4 times already, at the same market!, I keep thinking It was just that one time but no, again, the eggs weren’t cooked right so my question is, how can you not cook an egg correctly?, This is the easiest way of cooking an egg, you don’t even have to open it!!!

I’m conflicted with myself because I feel so irritated for this, food is so sacred to me and when I crave something so simple like this I expect nothing but to enjoy it and try to go back home mentally as there we have some egg tacos I used to eat, made with fresh corn tortilla and Mexican rice and salsa, sometimes with a Chile relleno in it too, whatever!.

I’m grateful for being able to eat well and to satisfy all my cravings. I know there’s people out there dying of hunger and they would love a bad hardboiled egg. But it was suppose to be a delicious first bite of my day and it got all ruined. So there, I’m done!

I know I need to chill about it but I also needed to express how I feel, I get very irritated when I don’t eat what I want.

I don’t care if I’m right or wrong I just wanted to vent about it, Thank you for reading me and I hope you never get an egg not cooked how you liked and I also wish you never have to starve.

I’m lucky! Just not happy when my eggs are not cooked well.

Okay, thank you and BYE!

Coming to an end

Hey,

As March coming to an end I’m feeling proud of how I’ve manage to stay afloat and hopeful to an unknown future, I’m certain more challenges are around the corner for me and even tho I can’t make as much art as I’d want to, I will try to stay creative at my 2 jobs. Always grateful for the people who gives me the opportunity to work.

I’m so lucky to be here, I don’t understand how I even landed so far.

Cheers to the last week of the month and I can’t wait to see what’s in the books for this Spring.

Thank you,

T.

Thank you for the Birthday wishes

I feel incredibly grateful to be able to celebrate my time alive in such a beautiful place with good friends I love, I felt loved and got the blessings of a double rainbow the following morning of my actual birthday.

I couldn’t do everything I had planned because is just impossible to do so much in one day but I took myself to the Botanical Garden in the morning, had ramen for lunch, did some Grocery shopping and I went to my favorite bar at the beach for a Piña Colada.

My favorite part of the day was my time with my friends Luis and Dora and a fun Facetime call with my favorite NY peeps!, we went for Happy Hour at another favorite bar on the North Shore and had dinner at a Tapas restaurant we all tried for the first time.

My mom called, my best friend’s called. Thank you all for the Birthday wishes, YOU ALL MADE ME SMILE…

My dessert was banana empanadas with Vanilla Ice cream

Surfing with mi amiga aDora-da

Michelada the Day after to keep the vibe going

I had to make my favorite lunch from back home, these are called “picadas”
