Hi!

I’m Amanda

I want to help people find happiness and beauty in their everyday life, no matter what each day brings. I love learning new things, traveling, caring for the people I love, and creating a life that makes me feel satisfied at the end of the day.

I look forward to sharing my excitement and experiences with you, and I hope they bring you inspiration and add a little sunshine to your day.
