About

Hello!  My name is Anita Kalro Patel.  I’m originally from New Jersey (yes, I’m a Jersey girl!) but currently live in Tampa, FL with my wonderful husband of almost 9 years. The two of us love to enjoy everyday and exotic adventures, explore new places, try new restaurants and spend time with family and friends. I take tons of pictures (almost daily) to capture both the big and small moments of our lives and love to document our experiences through scrapbooking.  For many years, I worked in corporate America and was most recently in a role that required lots of cross country travel so I didn’t have much time to pursue my creative interests.  Last year, I left my corporate job and very much appreciate the opportunities I now have to explore new creative outlets.

I decided to start this blog on my 40th birthday as a way to celebrate the past, present and future.  Over the next year, I plan to share 4 series of 40 which you can read about on my first blog post.  I have lots of stories to tell and am thrilled to have a place to capture them all.

I hope you’ll join me on my journey to WANDER, EXPLORE and CREATE.  Please say hello any time.  It’s always fun to meet new people who share similar interests and enjoy so many of the same “little things” that make me so happy!
