Favorite quote: Jeremiah 29:11
“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”
Your recommendations for things to do in Florida for visitors:
- Explore Wynwood walls … walk into the art galleries … really study the detail within the art that’s created on every wall throughout the area. The stories are endless there.
- Sit in a local coffee-shop … one you’ve never heard of before and get to know the locals who surround you. Take out a pen and piece of paper and just let your mind wander. The creative energy within those hidden gems are unlike any other place.
- Take a walk along the beach or by the inter coastal at sunset or sunrise. The Florida skies are pure magic at those times.
Fave restaurant and dish/es to get there: My favorite coffee-shops down here in South Florida so far are Brew Urban Café and Ella Café, both in Fort Lauderdale.
I typically either get the vanilla or mocha latte.
