Wellness
Over Christmas dinner the other night, my boyfriend’s parents asked me how I was adjusting to the altitude and weather. I chuckled and told them that I was doing great, and that that was somewhat surprising because at the start of winter for the past 4 years I’ve been taken down by a crippling, rare strain of strep throat.

Merry Christmas!
Well, I have to say it’s even more gorgeous than usual up here in Summit County, and I’ve just returned from a glorious morning on the slopes. Apologies for my lack of updates as of late, but this is my first day off in more than a week, so time has been short.
I will write a more detailed post in the next few days, but for now I just wanted to wish everyone a Merry Christmas. Being away from family at the holidays is hard, but I’m lucky to have a great support system up here in the mountains – not to mention an amazing view – to help me through it. I am so thankful for all of my family and friends today. Every morning that I wake up in this beautiful place I feel more and more amazingly blessed, and it’s really in large part thanks to you guys that I am able to be here. It’s thanks to growing up around such incredible people that I’ve had the strength, courage and outlook necessary for this little adventure.
I love you all. I miss you all. I can’t wait to see each and every one of you. And I hope you have the merriest Christmas possible.
So much love,
Mariana
Winter Wonderland
That’s it. I may have just witnessed the most spectacular sunset ever. And that’s saying something after growing up on the gulf coast and spending 6 months at Canyonlands. Check this out:
And the best part? I watched it from my living room.
I repeat: my life is awesome.
