๐Ÿงก Personal Milestones

๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ช Rodri spent some days on the beach! I spent some super relaxing days on the beach and the weather was 10/10!

๐Ÿ‡ต๐Ÿ‡ช Emily shares with us her trip! I visited Cusco after 10+ years and it felt like the first time! It was such a magical trip ๐Ÿ’š๐Ÿ”๏ธ Machu Picchu was misty and extremely green, adding to the mystical aura of the place. Also drove a four-wheeler for the first time - and dang is it hard ๐Ÿ˜‚ I would however 1000000% recommend doing it! It is so much fun and the views are beautiful. Although it was rainy season, we were lucky to stumble with heavy rain only once and even that was fun. It was the best start to the year!

๐Ÿ‡จ๐Ÿ‡ด Meli shares photos from Aleja's bachelorette weekend getaway! We had an amazing weekend; we held a Reiki ritual setting intentions for Aleja's marriage. The next day, we were on a boat navigating through Guatape, which is very beautiful, and we stayed until Sunday. It was an incredible and unforgettable weekend โค๏ธ

๐Ÿ‡บ๐Ÿ‡พ Euge spent some days in Uruguay. We took a weekend trip with my boyfriend to Colonia del Sacramento and Punta del Este, it was beautiful!

Aleja's Wedding Album ๐Ÿ’˜

Meet Aleja's pets, Emma and Milo!

Here are some fun facts that Aleja shared about them:

๐Ÿ• Emma (Golden Retriever): She adores being around people and is very spoiled and affectionate, but she's incredibly lazy. She loves sleeping all day long. When I take her out to play fetch, within 15 minutes she grabs the ball and heads straight to the door or lets it roll away so she doesn't have to retrieve it. I've had her since she was a baby.

๐Ÿถ Milo (Beagle): He also loves people, enjoys sleeping in his bed or mine covered with a blanket and flips onto his back for belly rubs. He's playful and a bit crazy but doesn't get along well with other dogs, except for his sister Emma, whom he idolizes and follows wherever she goes. He was adopted and came to us when he was 1 year old.

A Day in the Life ๐Ÿ“ท

Choose a day from your typical week and tell us about your routine. Meli B chose Thursday!

  • When I wake up, I turn on the computer, check my emails, and get ready for the gym. 

  • I head to the gym to exercise, which clears my mind. After returning home, I make breakfast and start work. 

  • Around 2 pm, I take a lunch break with my family before getting back to work. 

  • I tackle simpler tasks in the afternoon, as I'm more productive and efficient in the morning. By 5 pm, I've completed all my work tasks.

  • Post 5 pm, my activities vary; sometimes I catch up with friends over coffee, a meal, or ice cream, or I might stay home and watch a series with my mom or spend time with my nephews.

  • At 9 pm, I start my nighttime routine, which includes watching a bit of TV before going to bed early to ensure I'm up early and productive the next morning.

๐ŸŒŸ Welcome to our updated section: Ask Me Anything!

Discovering more about Euge Farace, Content Developer

๐Ÿ’ฌ What hobby or skill are you learning or want to learn? I want to start learning the guitar.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Would you rather speak all languages or be able to talk with animals? Why? Talk to animals! My dream, and the career that always lingers in the back of my mind, was to be a wildlife photographer.

๐Ÿ’ฌ Whatโ€™s one piece of advice you would give your younger self? Enjoy the moment and be thankful for now. We often chase the next goal without realizing we're living in what once was a dream. We miss the worth of our present by focusing too much on the future.

๐Ÿ’ฌ If you could live in any TV show, which one would it be? I'd pick Ben 10 because I always wanted the Omnitrix watch when I was younger. But my adult answer would be Modern Family for the laughs and the feel-good vibes.

๐Ÿ’ฌ What are some of your personal goals for this year? One of my goals is to step out of my comfort zone more! My most significant growth has happened when doing that. I'm usually methodical, believing in specific actions for specific results. Although I like this, I also want to relax a bit more and not overthink things so much.

๐Ÿ’ฌ What's a small thing that always makes your day better? Hugging my dogs and listening to good music! Listening to Earth, Wind & Fire, especially September and Let's Groove, always makes my day better.
