Hola!
My name is Dhara Patel and I welcome you to my little space. My blog is more than just a blog for me. I created it to cherish the little moments in life. My goal is to inspire the readers through fashion, travel, food and beauty. I have always been someone who has followed several bloggers for many years and have always found them to inspire me in different ways. I never thought that someone like me, who works 9-5 full time job, is an introvert, has very little knowledge about the technical aspects of a blog, and someone who knew so little about photography would have a blog!
I started it to show myself that I can do this if I set my mind to it. Now looking back at the countless hours spent learning about how to start a blog to actually starting it, I find myself learning and growing with my blog as an individual. I am a new blogger but I really do believe that if someone like me can start a blog, anyone can! All it takes is determination and a willingness to learn. It requires a lot of work and balancing it with a full time job and continuing education classes is not an easy task. But that is the thing, when you find something you have a passion for, you have to chase it!! I want my blog to serve as a reminder that no matter what it is that you want, if you are willing to put in the work and place faith in yourself, you can do it!
Ever since I started traveling, I knew I had to find a way to document my travel experiences and that is how the blog first came into being. I decided to add fashion into the mix since I found myself thoroughly enjoying the process of planning outfits for travel depending on where I was going or what I was going to be doing. Travel inspired me to see the beauty of the world through the people I have come across. Exploring new cultures has helped me grow as a person and has made me realize how kind people truly are and these experiences are what I aim to share via the travel guides on the blog.
When it comes to fashion, I am of the opinion that you, as an individual, define what your sense of style is. Following trends is fun but I do not believe that trends dictate style. Style is personal and that is what I try to showcase via the fashion posts on the blog.
The blog also has a series called Screen to Screen through which I aim to connect with the readers by having real discussions about aspects of life and way of living. I am firm believer that leading a modest and humble life along with act sprinkling kindness towards everything around you is vital.
I invite you all to come join me on the blog to grow with me, to get inspired and for YOU to inspire me and help me grow.
