I also started a business, Mela & Roam, selling exclusive handcrafted linens and curiosities discovered during my Southeast Asia travels. Each 'dohar' and throw is one-of-a-kind, so photographing every piece is a slow process when the tiny lips above need constant smoochin'. I love sharing part of my travels and found treasures through Mela & Roam, and the blankets—ranging in size from Baby to King—have been incredibly well received; I can hardly keep them in stock!
Malaysia taught me a great deal about seizing every possible moment, accepting [and loving!] change, and adapting no matter what life throws your way. Detaching from a computer for, oh, so long allowed me to focus less on 'reporting' and more on actual living. I'm still learning how to juggle baby, business, and blog, but I'm doing my best to live in the present if nothing else.
