I’ve always found the hardest part of any project is the beginning. I can find a thousand reasons to delay or tiny details to fuss over, but despite (a pandemic long) of procrastination, a new start is here for me. 

For years, I’ve wanted to share with you the three things I love the most: travel, tea, and poetry. In January of 2020, I had it all planned out, how I would spread so much positivity, inspiration, and passion through my writing. I had trips planned to Japan and to Boston, Massachusetts. 

Needless to say, there were some unforeseen events - like an international pandemic - that got in my way. I’ll have to forgive myself for the procrastination this time around. 

I am still keeping travel to a minimum, but as we slowly, and mindfully, begin our new normal, it was time to come back to writing. A two-year hiatus was by far long enough. So, with that, welcome to MarinaProse.
