About Me

Hello & Welcome to my Blog,

My name is Katherine - a mother loving foodie, wife to an amazing man, mother to three silly and lovable children + one rad dog, Disney Mouseketeer, nature-crazed tree hugger, road trippin photographer, college graduate, dog crazed lover, & Reno's #1 Fan.

I've been drawn to life and its' beauty ever since I could remember. This gift of life is something I want to share with others, aiming to inspire people to "stop and smell the roses," by helping them do so with easily accessible & useful information. I hope to help people gain experiences that will help encourage growth and help make life a bit more wholesome.

Please join me as I discover Reno and its surrounding areas, offering tips and recommendations along the way on good eats, local businesses, amazing sights, fun adventures, & rad experiences.

Every day, I pinch myself in disbelief of how lucky & fortunate I am to live in a city that offers so much. I am genuinely thrilled to share everything I love & adore about living in Reno with you all.

Thanks for being here,
Katherine
