(aka Bella Muerte/Lykishkeane)
I’m the creator of Sauntering Boots and also a Freelance Writer/ Blogger/Amateur Photographer/ Illustrator/Potato Junkie based in Japan, who is constantly looking for scenic spots to write and shoot with my ‘Instagram Husband.’
When I was still residing in my home country, the Philippines, I had the benefit of just asking my friends and family for support, but I lost that when I moved to Japan for work. This was the moment that taught me how to be independent. I then became resourceful in solving my problems, which is mostly asking Google for help. But because of this, I discovered tons of blogs that gave me useful ideas and solutions, motivating me to help others through my writing.
I then started writing blogs about my life in Japan on City-Cost, share my travel experience on Instagram, and luckily became a Freelance Travel Contributor for Gaijinpot.
And now, I’m pursuing this quest in Sauntering Boots.
Sauntering Boots
I love aimlessly walking around while listening to music and day-dreaming, hence I used the word ‘saunter’ and combined it with ‘boots’ because I love wearing them, especially when I’m lazy to dress up, yet I still want to look great!
Maui
It’s my nickname.
Bella Muerte
I mostly use this when I write or do some illustrations. I got it from My Chemical Romance’s The Jetset Life is Going to Kill You— one of my favorite songs.
P.S.
I know what it means. And yes, I had an EMO phase LOL.
