Pepsi, take a lesson from Heineken.

It’s a big world after all.

As I’ve been doing more and more travel in the last few years, I’ve come to use AirBnB more frequently. I really only registered some time late in 2016, and so far I’ve really appreciated this as an alternative to accommodations.

Go, go, Maritess! Happy Friday, everyone.

Here’s a little pick-me-up if you’re feeling down this week.

Just remember: there will be people there for you, and just be who you want to be.

Be beautiful.
