My name is Leslie; I’m 23 and live in Manhattan with my older sister. Health and nutrition are important factors in my life, but of course they aren’t the whole story!
A few fun facts:
- I adore creative environments and have dabbled in film, theater, fashion, and writing. If I had all the time and money in the world, I would spend every day in a gallery or museum and every night in the audience of a theater.
- Throughout the past few years, I’ve been lucky enough to spend quite a bit of time in Europe. Living abroad had a profound effect on my views of both the world and my own roots, and traveling remains one of my greatest passions.
- I am at my most peaceful and relaxed when on the beach. I don’t think there is a single more rejuvenating thing than ocean air.
- Fresh produce is my favorite thing to spend money on, closely followed by vintage clothing and decor.
- I adore running, but a knee injury has held me back from really pursuing it. Yoga has been my saving grace.
Since moving back to the US, I’ve been navigating our unpredictable economy while trying to get comfortable in my semblance of “adulthood.” I’m very much a work in progress and couldn’t be happier about it!
Hi! I just found your blog after you left a comment on mine. Your blog looks absolutely fabulous- you are an amazing writer and clearly have a keen sense of aesthetics. So far your meals look incredibly delicious and inspiring. I can’t wait to continue reading and to learn more about you! Welcome!
So I just read your AMAZING post and decided to read your about page. I’m in Manhattan for the summer and I was wondering if you knew of any nice healthy Restaurants I should try? Feel free to email me. (I wanted to send this comment in an email but didn’t have an address.)
Yoga is my saving grace too
Thanks for the comment on my blog yesterday!
I totally agree about the beach – and yoga! I still run, but I love both of them equally.

just found your blog and wanted to say hi~~ Your pictures are stunning!

Hi- I just stumbled on your blog, but I feel the same about yoga.. Being super injury prone has been a big obstacle in my love for running, and honestly I don’t know what I would have done if I hadn’t discovered yoga. You have a good outlook on life!

Agreed about the fresh ocean air. In fact, the details of a great FL beach experience are fully reviewed (and photographed) in a previous “Mastering Public Health” blog post!
