Hello everyone, Kelly here! 👋

Originally from Rio de Janeiro, Brazil - the country of football, I've been wandering through Europe for the past 7 years. The last 4? Bracing the Finnish chill. Yep, I miss the beaches and the food, but Finland has somehow become home too. ♥

I hold a degree in Marketing and am an MBA student by day, and a freelance writer by... also day (because, really, who needs sleep?). I'm super passionate about life, inclusion, jet-setting around the world, and lending a hand at the International Blue Cross.

I've experienced the parenting rollercoaster in unique ways – first as a super young mom (think: teen mom drama without the reality TV show) and then again, at a more, let’s say, 'conventional' age. I have an 18-year-old who’s practically my buddy and a 4-year-old princess who still believes I’m the bee's knees. Two very different mom vibes for sure!

Life's wild rides made me a mom, entrepreneur, student, and travel-lover all rolled into one. Yep, I wear many hats... and not just the woolly ones for Finnish winters. Sharing stories and thoughts? Swapping moments and experiences? That's my jam! It truly adds spice to my life. And I absolutely love animals, especially our oversized furball, a Saint Bernard named Buba. He's... sizable, to say the least. 🐾

While I might not be the next J.K. Rowling, I've recently developed a deep fondness for writing. Think of it as therapy, but easier on the wallet. I pour my heart out, learn a ton about myself, and genuinely enjoy the process. As for opinions? They're welcome, whether you love or loathe what I say. But I value a dash of empathy, respect, and good vibes. Anything less? Well, thank you, next.

Here, I share thoughts, feelings, and snippets from life's rollercoaster. If any of it resonates with you, why not connect and share? Enjoyed what you read? For more, subscribe here. 💌
