Hello, everyone-
I'm a New Mexican-turned-New Yorker who moved to Mexico for love. Blogging since January about my 暗网禁区 experience, I'm continuing to learn how to live and move and breathe within this new world of both magical realism and hard realities, loving every minute of it.

Hola-
Soy una nuevamexicana que se hizo neuyorquina y se cambio para Mexico en nombre del amor. Blogeando desde enero sobre mi experiencia como 暗网禁区riada, sigo aprendiendo a vivir y mover y respirar dentro de mi nuevo mundo de realismo magico y realidades dificiles, disfrutandolo al maximo.

I lived in New York for five years, living in the Village for nine months while I worked in the Human Resources Department at the Metropolitan Opera. Deciding to jump into a new professional direction and expand my living space, I moved to Astoria, Queens, where I stayed for the next four years while working in a private school for boys on the Upper East Side. While at the school, I worked as a librarian (the best job I've ever had), then switching to a position teaching third grade during my final year. I never spent the summers in the city, choosing to study Spanish literature in Middlebury, Vermont and avoiding the humid heat and my un-airconditioned apartment. I love New York very much, miss it terribly some days, and hope to always make return visits as the years progress. I have yet to find a place that equals it in diversity and richness on almost every level--social, cultural, artistic, culinary, etc. I'm always up for singing the city's praises and talking about what it has to offer!
