New Changes All Around
I’d like to welcome and re-welcome some of you to my site’s new design. It took me quite some time determine the kind of design and functionality that I wanted, but I’m really happy with the result. I worked with a few designers through the website 99Designs.com in order to create a design I felt represented what I’m all about- just in time for the new year and its resolutions (which includes posting more)!
With the new design comes a few changes in my life as well. I’m moving, for one, so that my daily commute is nearly 1/3 of what it is now, and have also picked up a couple new projects. One of the  more recent developments, is my guest-authoring a blog that aims to help people design their dream lifestyle- Lifescaping, to put it simply.
In addition to writing, studying and travel, I’ve become quite an avid Twitter-er and have even met some really interesting people in the realm of travel and blogging.
Along with picking up some fun projects and tweeting, I’ve been planning another trip. I’ll be heading out of town on an 11-day RV road trip with very little planned ahead of time- just the way it should be! It is a much needed vacation from the daily grind. I’ll be leaving Los Angeles on the 23rd en route to various locations in Arizona including, Phoenix, Scottsdale and Tuscon. If you have recommendations of things to do or see, I welcome your comments here!
On that note, it’s time for me to start making my list of things to pack!

VERY cool Mia! Love the look of the site. I’m in the middle of quite the life redesign too, following a divorce and a little bit of dissolution w/ my job as a wedding photographer. I hope that your future brings you all the things you hope and pray for and that the adventures you are preparing for truly exceed your expectations! I’m not completely happy unless I am traveling frequently, so I certainly know the allure of travel and adventure!! Best! Kirsten Alana

Hi Mia.
The site is looking pretty. There are many nice elements to it. I had not seen horizontal wood previously, and it’s tone is friendly. The leaves at the top are a nice touch, and that border rectangle with spaces missing from it around your name on the header does the trick well. You gotta love how that RSS button is revealed after being broken behind the wood.
All looks to be in great shape here.
Thanks everyone for all the comments! I’m glad you all like the new design- I’m really happy with it
Thanks for stopping by guys, hope you’ll come back and read more!

Sounds like your RV trip will make for some interesting blog posts
Don’t forget Sedona while you’re in Arizona! Just think of the Grand Canyon in reverse. Also see if you can find a “vortex”, haha.
