Hi, I’m Chantal. By day, I build partnerships and communities in gaming and creator worlds — that’s my work →. This is my personal corner of the internet — travels, photo journals, and life off the clock.
I grew up in the Philippines, spent a few great years in Malaysia, and spent time exploring the world with my husband, Alex, as digital nomads—living off just two suitcases each as we moved from place to place. These days, we’re settled in the Pacific Northwest alongside Chauncey—our senior deaf cat who randomly showed up at our door one day, moved in, and now spends her days happily soaking up the sun.
When I’m not working, I’m usually cycling through a million hobbies—I genuinely love learning new things, whether that’s sinking into RPGs, strategy, and simulation games, or getting hands-on with cooking, baking, and sewing. I’m happiest outdoors with a camera in hand, taking photos, exploring new landscapes, and taking in nature.

This blog is my digital scrapbook where I document our travels, photo journals, and life along the way.
