Isa Ostrovsky

Welcome! I'm Isa, and I am a 20-year old Ecuadorian American who apparently speaks with a Russian accent! I love cats, sleeping until noon, and listening to classical music. Please sit down, relax and join me on my journey as I write about anything and everything --fashion, travelling, culture, identity, beauty, and love.

Some may say I am very intuitive for my age, but I'll let you decide that for yourself. And I may be an open book, but know that my chapters are interesting. Cheers xx

The Truth About "Loving" Yourself

"You have to love yourself before anyone can ever love you." I heard it all the time. I knew those who said it meant well, but I'm going to be the one who will tell you what you actually need to hear.

How my first kiss, first time, and first heartbreak happened within half a year.

This is the story of the greatest emotional roller coaster in my 20 years of living. And this is how I am healing. If I can do it, then so can you.

If you don't do these things before traveling internationally, you're screwed.

I have traveled overseas before, but at times I forget to do something important before leaving. So I finally made a pre-departure checklist to help you and I maintain our sanity before lift off.
