welcome to salyna @play

Just trying to push outside of comfort zones and learn a few new things along the way.

I am thrilled to have you here and invite you to discover my world of play and learning. As someone who is passionate about exploring new ideas and discovering new interests, I have created this area to share my journey with you.

My Personal Blogs

Have you ever said you were going to do something, and then *POOF* many years pass by and you still haven’t tried or done it yet? Or if you did succeed, upon reflection, it took you YEARS LATER to actually get around to it? I HAVE!Β 

Laying it [almost] all out there, my blog is a collection of my “I’ve always wanted to” moments as captured from one of my many journal entries.Β 

In doing so:Β “I hope I will become more motivated to realize my dreams quicker, do all the things I’ve always wanted to, and hopefully inspire a few souls along the way.”Β 

Who knows where or how this blog will evolve, I just know where it started… Because “I’ve always wanted to launch a blog!” #Enjoy #SalynasWorld

Journals – Writing to Forget

After reading a few of my old journal entries, I realized recently that I didn’t write to remember, rather I wrote to forget. Because it’s …

Wait, I'm a Vlogger now?

Yes, a casual hobby – but a hobby no less. How it came about? First, it was #karaandnate #vanlife and #youtubevlogsareaddictive. Then it was trying to answer a daunting question: “What if one day you woke up and forgot everything? Have you ever met anyone with Alzheimer’s?”Β 

So here’s to sharing an archive of my Vlogs & videos. Enjoy! And if it made you laugh or smile [even the slightest], please show some love, like, and subscribe!Β
