If anyone out there is actually reading this, welcome to my new little corner of the internet! My secret New Year’s resolution was to start a blog and we’re somehow already almost 4 months in to the year but better late than never, right? My not-secret New Year’s resolution was to floss every day but that’s already gone to sh*t so I’ve got to keep at least one of them.
I suppose I should really start by sharing a bit about myself. Hi, I’m Clara…
…lover of books, adventures, afternoon tea, and dessert. I was born and raised in Austin, Texas but am currently enjoying life in Morgantown, WV. I’d kill for some Whataburger but the peperoni rolls up here are hard to beat.
I’m terrible at talking about myself but the most important thing to know about me is that I would be happy to only eat macarons for the rest of my life. My odd hobbies include collecting a Harry Potter book from every country I visit in that language and watching Pretty Woman on repeat. I’m hopelessly nostalgic and while I pretend to be (attempt to be?) a realist, I think I’m a romantic at heart. If you enjoy planning exotic getaways you can never afford, getting lost in libraries, and sarcasm, we’ll get along great.
Career-wise, I do a mix of communication design and marketing. In college I studied graphic design and am half way through my master’s degree in integrated marketing. I love having a hand in each jar and hope to find a career in life that lets me combine both tracks into one fabulous job. For now, I’m still trying to figure out where I fit in in all this – my career path, life, the world, etc.
My hope is that this blog will become a way for me to share thoughts and ideas with anyone who may be out there listening. For now, you can expect posts about my intense love of travel, my newest book obsessions, and life in general. I’m not sure how this will all work out but at least it’ll be fun! Stick around and see what happens.
