Manifesting chill vibes for 2021✨☕️
During the first months of the year, right after the holiday season, it’s easy to feel unmotivated, tired or just plain sad! Seasonal depression is real y’all. Especially when you were JUST surrounded by all of your loved ones back home and now... you’re in quarantine and every day feels the same lol 🙃.

So, to make sure I enjoy this season, I surround myself with all things warm and cozy. I truly believe in !
I start with my daily cups of tea, obviously. What’s more warm and cozy than tea?! My friends at me their Discovery Box membership. Every month, I receive a box of personalized teas based on my preferences. I love to switch up my tea flavors so this is such an exciting idea! If you’re a tea lover like me, you HAVE to check them out!❤️☕️🍵

Here we are.
It’s been SEVEN WHOLE YEARS since I packed my bags and moved to Chicago.
Sometimes I catch myself wondering what my life would’ve been like if I just stayed in Milan, or if I went back after a year like I had originally planned to. Moving across the world ain’t no easy task, and there’s always a part of you who’s gonna miss “the life you never had”, the “you” that you would’ve grown into if you just... stayed.
But then I look back and tell myself: WOW. I grew into a COMPLETELY different person from the girl I was back home. I’m not scared of being exactly who I am, I’m proactive, confident, determined. I’m happy, and I take pride in being positive. I have the extraordinary chance to inspire others whether that’s with my blog -who turns 2 today🎂- where I racked up 1.3k monthly viewers, or simply with what I’m doing over here, with my life, living far away from home, earning degrees and getting a job I love. If I can inspire anybody to travel, move abroad or go after their dreams, then my job here is done. Moving here shaped me into this version of me. And for that, I’ll be forever grateful. Thank you for seven long years of absurd weather, Chicago❤️
