Christmas in Sarasota
I spent the holidays with my mom, boyfriend and his family in lovely Sarasota, Florida. We had a cookout on the beach and it was still a beautiful day in the Florida winter and it was a great beach for finding shells. I have a glass covered coffee table filled with shells I and my family have collected over the years, it is truly unique and beautiful, and serves as a keepsake of all the family trips to the beach, and this year I added some new shells with my boyfriend. My boy

Taste of Nona: Diamonds and Denim
Had so much fun at Taste Of Nona! It’s an annual food event with live music, where you can sample food from a fantastic selection of local venues like Bolay, Jeremiah's Ice, Canvas Lake Nona and Chroma Lake Nona. It was amazing to walk around and have a selection of fresh local food! Drinks were by Boxi Park Lake Nona, and my boyfriend and I walked around there for a bit after the event. This is the seventh year of Taste of Nona, it is put together by the Lake Nona Regional C

Dine with an Astronaut
My boyfriend and I went to Kennedy Space Center's "Lunch with an Astronaut" and it was an enriching experience where you get to hear first hand accounts of space missions. It is in a group setting where the food is buffet style and the astronaut gives a presentation up on stage about their experiences. He had been on quite a few missions and was very insightful. The food menu includes arugula and carrot salad with lemon vinaigrette, chipotle roasted cod, southern fried chicke

Exploring Florida: Devil's Den Springs
Finally made it to @devilsdenspring! It’s a prehistoric natural spring inside a cave. The cave has a circular opening which the early pioneers thought was a portal to the underworld, and apparently when it’s cold outside steam rises through the hole, hence the name of the spring. However the water is a bit chilly but it gets comfier to swim in once you get your whole body in! We rented snorkeling equipment and it was a lot of fun, I didn’t dive down to the bottom but it’s abo

CEO Gaming Convention in Daytona Beach Florida
From our trip to Daytona Beach for Ceo Gaming Inc. It was held inside the ginormous beautiful Ocean Center convention hall, there were so many people there! We stayed at the Hilton Daytona Beach which you can see behind me, they had the most amazing brunch! You could see the ocean from our room and the Daytona Bandshell where they host live music. Overall I’ve become a fan of Daytona! 📸 @gmsmith8490 🌴🌊🎮 The convention itself featured games such as Street Fighter 5, Tekken

First Time Surfing : Surf Lessons with Vast Oceans Surf and SUP School in Daytona
I had an amazing time in my first ever surf lesson with @ragansurfs! In the morning on the beach in front of the beautiful @shoresresort we went over safety, technique and style, and practiced the surfer pop-up technique to stand up on the board. When we went out into the water he helped me catch a lot of waves, and gave helpful feedback each time on how to improve even more. I even stood all the way up on the board a few times! He was dedicated to making me feel confident on

Exploring Florida: Sarasota
Visiting the boyfriend’s family in Sarasota. Sarasota is a boujie Florida town that’s right by the ocean with a historic downtown district and lots of cute shops and places to eat.

Dunkin's New Chocolate Cherry Cold Brew
Enjoying the new Chocolate Cherry Cold Brew from @dunkin! The rich chocolatey flavor meshes well with the cherry and enhances the deep flavor of the cold brew. The slow cold brewing process takes twelve hours in small batches, and enhances the flavor of the coffee like a fine wine. Even better, right now a medium is only $2 from 2-6pm! Now is the perfect time to add Dunkin’s new Chocolate Cherry Cold Brew to your afternoon lifestyle. Definitely enjoying this coffee happy hour

Experience Japanese & Hawaiian Fusion at Hi-5 Poke and Sushi near IDrive
Had an amazing time at @hi5pokeandsushi! A one of a kind family owned place that combines Japanese and Hawaiian style and cuisine, they are conveniently located in the IDrive district of Orlando. The Korean BBQ wings are one of their most popular dishes and I can see why, with its incredible flavor and spices. They have a really unique take on nachos with tuna, avocado and spicy sauce over wonton chips, which gave it a signature salty flavor. The tonkotsu ramen is a classic t

Don Julio's Authentic Mexican Food
The food at @donjuliosmexican is phenomenal! Sitting outside gave such a nice atmosphere. The Mexican street corn was full of flavourful spices, cut by the creamy sauce poured over it, and served grilled and sizzling. The shrimp stuffed avocado was both healthy and delicious, I could eat that every day. In contrast, the fried ice cream was drool worthy and an amazing indulgent treat. Overall, would go again!

Little Greek Fresh Grill Review
The food at @littlegreekleevista is an authentic taste of Greece! You can find classic gyros, baklava, spanakopita, pita and hummus, and other classic dishes. They said that they source some of their ingredients from Tarpon Springs, Florida’s historic Greek town nearby Tampa. It’s one of my favorite less exposed places in Florida, and the food there is always phenomenal, so it makes perfect sense that they are connected! Now you can find a piece of Greece right here in Orland

Captain Marvel Opens on International Women's Day!
Captain Marvel opens today! I was invited to a special pre-release screening in IMAX, and it definitely exceeded expectations! I don't want to give away any spoilers, but Marvel fans will be pleased with this movie. At first I was a little worried that such a strong female character would be portrayed as a caricature, or be sexualized, or have some kind of makeover montage scene, but it was none of the above. Carol Danvers is a three dimensional American girl, with a matter o
