Photo Flashback: La Isla Del Encanto



The island of enchantment. I finally got the opportunity to visit the homeland I always heard about in 2007. I was born in NY and never visited Puerto Rico, although my father was born there and my mother lived there briefly. I planned on wearing white when I did see El Morro. Have you visited the your homeland? Where is it and what did you wear?  And what songs remind you of your homeland? I'd love to hear about your experiences and adventures!

This song and video captures the feeling of Puerto Rico so beautifully...
La Perla by Calle 13 with Ruben Blades.
It's about food, family, music and growing up in PR.




Here's a similar look to my dress...

  2. Looks so pretty - I have always wanted to visit! I have only been through the airport there, but about ten people can up to me to ask me questions thinking I was a local! Haha!
