If I had known quotes would be so popular in the 21st century and nearly a guideline for everything we do, I would have kept my notebook filled with quotes I came up with, while growing up.

Have you ever passed by something which caught your interest and then took another look, but this time in utter admiration or appreciation or longing? Where here’s what will do for it for
Ooccasionally, while thumbing through beautiful things that make me feel amazing and blogging about it, I find that, I need to touch up on every day realities, which are often times swept under the rug.

For that thought and of course a romantic destination recommend, I suggest Casa Angelia.
