Photo Essay: Santo Domingo Street Art

December 2, 2016 by Caroline Leave a Comment

The capital city of Santo Domingo is highly underrated when it comes to tourism to the Dominican Republic.

November 29, 2016 by Caroline 1 Comment

It's the most delicious time of the year! I love looking back at the last 12 months to see what all deliciousness I was able to consume.

There are oak trees over 100 years old near my house and my hometown is one of the greenest, literally not eco-friendly, cities in the United States.
