There’s A Reason Why I Love Quetzal Already

I’ve said it before, and I’ll say it again. I must have been Mexican in a past life. From sitting on the beaches of the resort towns with my husband, to almost surreal spiritual moments exploring the temples of this iconic country, there is something tangibly beautiful about all things Mexican for me. Did I also mention that I am almost always going to order Mexican and Latino food if I get to pick what we are eating?

Some of you will smile, and others will curse my name, but it is technically coming up quickly. I should explain a little something for those of you who don’t understand the BTS of working in the media – the brands and events that we are attending right now are getting excited for the holidays because in our world we are always looking to the next big season. It may seem a bit backwards, but it’s also kind of exciting. So while I sift through gift guides and all things holidays (planning content for us well into December already), I wanted to bring you BTS at some of my favourite items I hope are waiting for me under the tree this year.
