About Frida’s Cafe

¡Bienvenidos a Frida’s Cafe! I started this blog in 2010. I wanted to express my thoughts and opinions as a single woman in her late twenties. At the time, I was focused on my career, volunteer work, enjoyed solo traveling, and running. I enjoyed writing about all of it including sexuality, feminism, my personal journey…

Making time for…

In my last post I wrote about time and making time to do more of what brings me joy. After taking a life changing step last month, I have been focusing on using my time intentionally. I take time to think and practice self-love. Reflecting during this time has allowed me dig deeper, get out…

It is hard to believe today he is 10 months, just 2 months shy away from being 1 year. I remember the days when I could take a photo with that zebra to show his growth from month to month. Now it is hard to get him to stay still. He crawls non-stop, stands on…

#naphopomo 2013, Day 19: One of my role models
Tonight I ran into one of my role models, the wonderful Teresa Farfan. Turns out she is one of co-workers sister. Teresa inspired me to study journalism when I was in High School. I used to watch Teresa in the late nineties when she was one of the main reporters/anchor on Univision. She later move to…

#naphopomo 2013, Day 17: Dinner en nuestro hogar
Tonight Gael and I hosted a dinner for a small group of friends at home. This was a first for me. I’ve never really had more than one friend come over for dinner. It was really nice. It’s was our usual sunday breakfast bunch- Rafa, Pau and Ale. I managed to cook a pretty decent meal…
