Travel Fashion

I'm about to jet set again. For a very short trip this time. When I travel, especially arriving or departing Puerto Rico, I have to keep in mind the climate. It may be very hot and humid out but don't make the mistake of traveling in shorts and a tank top because the air conditioning will freeze you out. When leaving Puerto Rico I generally travel in long pants of the non-jean material, with a tank top and something in hand to throw on over for when I get cold. When arriving to Puerto Rico I usually make sure I have sandals and shorts in my carry on to change in the airport when I arrive.

6 a.m. flight here I come.

Limpieza, Lemonade, y La Laguna

Happy Sunday! Today for me was the exact opposite of a Lazy Sunday. I was up before 10 and started cleaning. I had one last part of the house that was still abandoned and disgusting to take care of. And I tackled it this morning.

Cricket not helping me clean.

It was fairly hot this morning so I made some lemonade.

The color of the lemonade is due to the fact that I use brown cane sugar.

After the laundromat I stopped by the beach for a little bit to just sit and stare at the water.

I've been wanting to go to the Laguna Tortuguera for awhile now. But the gate is always shut when I go by. I remembered a way I went in with my boyfriend once where we climbed up to an overlook. I tried to repeat that trip but I think I took a different trail and ended up lost in the jungle getting freaked out by creaking trees. I wasn't actually lost but the main trail I was on was longer than I thought it would be and then split into three trails and I didn't know which to take. Decided to turn around because I was heading there to take pictures of the sunset and if the trail turned out to be even longer than I had already gone I didn't want to end up having to take it back in the dark in my worse than flip-flop shoes I had on my feet. I'll save it for another day when I have someone with me. Or not when nights about to fall.

What Am I Doing Currently

I am currently living in Manati, Puerto Rico. I just moved out here when I got back from Argentina on June 5th. The house I am living in has been abandoned for about three years. So my current projects all involve putting the house back into livable condition. This is because I am not staying in Puerto Rico permanently. In August I am going back to NYC temporarily for a job till November. Then depending on what else I am doing depends on where I will be. Fixing up the house serves the purpose of always giving me a place to escape to when I get sick of the New York winter.

So the next few weeks all my post will be based in Puerto Rico. In Manati or the San Juan area as I often have to go back there for work or hockey practice.

This Blog...

This blog is something I've been meaning to do for wahile and I have put off. I just turned 24 and I travel A LOT. Friends and family are constantly asking me about my travels and I figured that starting to document them in a form that is more easily shareable just makes sense.

If you are not my friend or my family and have stumbled across this blog here is a little about me: My name is Leticia. I'm currently living in Manati, Puerto Rico. I have spent the last two years living in San Juan. I grew up in the Mid-Hudson Valley of New York State.
I graduated from Columbia University with a BA in Visual Arts. And the thing that most dictates my life is field hockey. I have been playing since I was 9 years old. I'm currently playing for the National Team in Puerto Rico and my hockey playing is what has given me the opportunity to travel so much at a young age, Field Hockey is a global sport and there are opportunities to play all over the world.

On this blog you'll find posts about my travels, places to visit, and general posts about my life and what I'm up to. Enjoy!
