​La brecha // the gap

​Alongside co-writer Andrea Archilla, this multi-lingual blog dives into diverse Latino cultures. Focussing mainly on Puerto Rico, the two authors also speak on the array of beauty found throughout the Caribbean and Latin America. Beyond this, Lillian and Andrea discuss how each of these communities face both past and present adversity, as well as, how each of us can aid in making a difference. In the future, the bloggers hope to have the opportunity to interview others on their own personal experiences, and their opinions on hot-topic issues plaguing the Caribbean, such as climate change, power outages, among others.

Around the world

​
Described by readers as real, relatable and riveting, through this blog, explore what it's like to be a child living overseas through the eyes of Lillian; a young girl who was grown up most of her life away from her birthplace. Included in these experiences will be the lessons she has learned, and the communities that have touched her heart in remarkable ways. Readers will learn what it means to be resilient, as Lillian and guest-writers post blog entries that will take you around the world and back again.

A field of Bluebonnets

Serving as a written gallery for every day events, Lillian gives readers a glimpse into her everyday life, including the family & friends that motivate her. Originally born in Dallas Texas (where the bluebonnet flourishes as the state flower), hear about Lillian's moves to Peru, Puerto Rico, and The Bahamas, the friends she has made along the way, and the choices that have lead her to where she is. Hobbies, interests, favorite authors and pieces of literature will all be shared and explored.
