This week has been life changing. Being away from home has never been so difficult.
A category 5 Hurricane Maria hit the Island of Puerto Rico causing vast devastation of its natural habitat as well as the destruction of thousands of homes.

At the moment, millions of people are without electricity, water, gas, food, creating a humanitarian crisis that needs to be dealt with. I had barely no communication with my family or friends, and knowing that they're hurting breaks my heart.
This magnificent place has brought so much happiness to me, my husband, our family, friends and tourists from all over the world (with it's beautiful beaches, delicious food, rainforest, music and lively spirit) needs us. It's time to give back and help those in need. I've listed many non-profit organizations and drop off locations where you can donate, give your time or just help anyway you're able. You can click on each photo or title in order to get more information about each of them.
