Hi there lover!
My name is Jessica Maria and I am the creator of Let’s Fall in Love Blog. I am 26 years old and have lived in Miami, FL (USA) my whole life. I believe in taking time out of each day to find beauty in little things, expressing gratitude and spreading love. I am so happy you found my blog and I hope you enjoy it! Here are a few general questions to get to know me better:
Why did you start a blog?
I started this blog in March 2014 to create a space for the things I am passionate about and as a place of inspiration for you. My passions include fashion, beauty, dancing, reading, traveling, organizing and trying new things. Starting my blog was an idea I dreamed of, long before I actually did it. I realized that I am more creative and artistically driven than anything else. I really wanted to create content and have a space where I could keep it all.
Where are you from?
I was born in Miami, FL, and both my parents are Colombian. My entire life I’ve loved having Colombian heritage. My maternal grandmother was Brazilian and I have a lot of love for the Portuguese language and dream of visiting Brazil one day.
Some things I enjoy:
I love kids and light up around them. When I was little, I wanted 4-5 kids and now I can settle for 3 haha. I like watching movies or binge watching a new favorite show. Like a true girly girl, I love shopping! I go through phases of what I enjoy shopping for the most. Right now its a mix of clothes, home decor and baby items. I love God and feel strong about my beliefs. I absolutely love reading hard cover books. I love to travel and go to new cities that I’ve never been to. I’m fascinated by culture, people and trying new foods. I love heart-shaped anything and I think this ties to the hopeless romantic inside me. I love doing laundry. Organizing and cleaning my house are ways I de-stress.
What are your favorite foods?
I have a VERY sweet spot in my heart for pizza, pasta, chocolate chip cookies and cheese. My drinks of choice are wine, Prosecco or a fruity cocktail.
How many languages do you speak?
2.5 – Spanish is my first language {thanks to my Colombian mama} and as soon as I started school, I learned English. I’d say English is my strongest. I attempted to learn French several times and never fully caught on. I loosely speak Portuguese and understand it pretty well.
What is your workout routine?
I have tried many ways of working out and the only ones that I stick to are the ones I enjoy the most: a dance class or a spinning (cycling) class. I tend to be more consistent when I can work out in a group setting.
Who takes your blog pictures?
My amazing mother. She is the most creative person I know and has a great eye for angles. She didn’t know much about “manual” settings on a camera, but together we try to do our best.
Do you make any videos?
Yes! I have fallen in love with creating videos and expressing myself that way. I feel it’s more personal when you can hear my voice and see my facial expressions. The name of my channel is Jessica Maria and you can see it directly here.
