on my mary way mondays: week one

on my mary way mondays
week one 
“Traveling leaves you speechless and then turns you into a storyteller.”

why now, why me:
I moved to Costa Rica about six months ago and have been searching for a way to share my experiences with family and friends, in a real way. Of course, I have a travel journal, but sometimes talking to yourself gets lonely. So for fun, sanity, practice, and much more, I give you
on my mary way mondays. 

here’s the plan
I write, you read.  As promised (long ago) I will share the real deal with those who choose to join me for the ride.  I plan to make you think, giggle, and hopefully feel.  Every Monday I will drop some info and insights straight to your inbox (because who says Mondays have to be all bad?)!  
If there is something you are curious about, write me.  Want to know more, tell me.  It is my sincerest hope to create a space for engagement beyond the "like" button.

thanks in advance
This week is about getting the ball rolling.  The first official on my mary way monday will begin next week. In the meantime, tell your friends and get excited! Cool things are about to happen. 

tip of the week
Oversleep your alarm. This week I overslept my alarm. Twice.  It is important to remember to allow yourself to hit snooze, put your feet up, and even - every once and awhile- take a vacation (even if it  is just to read a good book with a glass of wine in your own backyard).
