About Me

Born and raised in Hood River, Oregon. Daugther of Mexicanos that immigrated to the US and found jobs as Farmworkers. Proud Mexicana-Americana with many dreams. Sounds so cliché but, I am really just trying to live the life of my dreams and that involves a lot of exploring of the world ( Thank you lord baby Jesus for planes) I am so grateful for being born in the U.S of A because that means I have a passport, which is essentially a ticket to anywhere in el mundo (granted I have the money to travel, of course) I am grateful for that and recognize what a privilege it is. I hope to inspire you to travel through my adventures, especially women and POCs.

I am a nomad at heart and I think that is why I have two feet, and not raíces- I just need to travel and explore as much as I can be it my hometown, my country or across the world. I just have to, my body and soul needs it. I love learning and I am eternally curious. I believe in filling my heart and pockets with memories and not money. I believe it taking many pictures as a return ticket to places and memories I have created. I believe in internationalization and learning about other cultures that are not my own. I believe in good food and good people. I believe in happiness, and above all I believe in love. Mucho mucho Amor.

Con cariño,

Yesi

P.S Listen to what your heart desires, I promise you will find happiness there.

Koyo

"Before it's your favorite place, it's a place you've never been " It is Koyo ( the changing color of the leaves, autumn) season! I have always loved the fact that Oregon gets 4 seasons. Japan gets four seasons as well! The bright oranges and reds are just incredible here. I have been revisiting some of my favorite spots around my new town to see how they change with the seasons. Here are some pictures at Jogakura Bridge. 

Okinawa Get-Away

" Travel is the only thing you buy that makes you richer"-Unknown Heart shaped rocks in Oki Well I finally checked off one of the prefectures I wanted to visit off my list. Okinawa, Japan it has been called the Hawaii of Japan by many tourists. I have been to Hawaii and I agree that it is the paradise of the country. I went with my friend Anna and a new friend that made (friend of Anna's) Ben. We rented a car and three different AirBnB night accommodations while we were in Okinawa, at it was the best decision we made because we got to see everything we wanted to see! Granted the Island is not that huge but still, we checked off our lists.  Rainbow and unicorn bagels at Caracalla. Our first stop was Caracalla bagels, and boy was I glad we got our hands on these colorful bagels...because they had the last 3 when we got there! They sell out everyday and we went on a Thursday thinking we wouldn't have that issue. Phewww that was close. Lowkey (thanks Ben...

Ya'll asked for it so here it is: My 10 day itinerary for The Philippines.

Twin lagoon. Oh boy was it hard to pick what Islands I would explore. I had been waiting to visit this beautiful side of the world for soooo long and I kept putting it off because the planning for it is difficult. The Philippines is composed of over 7,000 islands and transportation from island to island is not that simple or convenient at times  depending which ones you want to see). But guess what I finally made an itinerary and it worked out perfectly and now I am back. I still can't believe I checked off The Philippines from my country list. I will be back one day to explore more for sure! Before embarking on this journey I knew it would all be beautiful but once there it exceeded my expectations. If you love nature, beaches, waterfalls, cheap food and learning about a new way of life this is a must country to visit. I did a lot and saw a lot below I will do a little bit of my favs.  My favorite activities where: Swimming with whale sharks Canyoneering Kawasan...
