LA vs. Miami

1. THE WEATHER LA is the clear winner in this category. Florida is called the Sunshine State but that isn’t even accurate. After living here for a couple months I have realized rain comes whenever it feels like it for however long it feels like. Also, humidity is quite possibly the reason that television was […]

What inspires me and makes me crazy at the same time?

Getting leis, wigs and other things… What inspires me and makes me crazy at the same time? At simple sight, I’m just a regular girl. I don’t seem too extroverted or talkative and sometimes I can be a little shy. Only those who get to talk to me or spend time with me around the […]

Visa Design Challenge, Reviewed

This piece of work is one of my favorites. For the Visa Design Project, Anifer Pita worked alongside the lovely Irina Zabelina, a Russian Native, and also the edgy Eden Paineau.
