31 day submission: Caryl!

I don't even know Caryl, but i'm pretty sure that we would get along. She's friends with Lisa and she is currently in Quito...and she has sweet hair. I'm sort of obsessed with natural hair, beautiful curly hair right now ever since I chopped my hair!

Check out her blog!

Yesterday I was hanging out on facebook and saw that one of my friends, Lisa, had joined the FB group 31 Days till Summer challenge. The idea behind this group is that there are 31 days (fewer now) till summer and that you should come up with 31 things/habits you’d like to do/get going during the next 31 days. I happen to be in Quito at the moment, the city of eternal Spring, but that’s not going to stop me from joining in in a bit of self-improvement. Anyone that knows me or have followed my blog for a while knows that I’m pretty obsessed with setting goals so this sort of challenge is right up my alley. Now to think of 31 things I’d like to do during the next 31 days.
