Link Love August: Papayas and Pet Projects
Happy August, friends! The past few months have been a whirlwind, but I’m excited to be back to share more exciting content with you. Since my last life update, I’ve been to a socially distanced ambient concert, been interviewed for a couple of podcasts, participated in a weeklong influencer challenge and even visited family in South Florida for a while. We’ve all been mostly quarantined at home, so it was nice to spend a week and a half working from my parents’ house and getting some much-needed time with the dogs!
I have some exciting projects coming up that I’m excited to share with you all soon. If you’re not following me on Instagram already, pop over to my page @wellnessandwanderlustblog for exclusive content and other updates!
