Hello, I'm Trinity Abagail and welcome to the blog! When I was young, my absolute dream job was to become a National Geographic journalist and photographer. I aspired to travel the world and share the untold stories that needed to be heard. I dreamed of inspiring people to work towards a better world and future. Sounds pretty ambitious, right? Well, it is, but so is any dream that becomes a reality. Okay... so, I may not be working for National Geographic, but I'm starting out small and working towards something great in my own way.
After obtaining my bachelor's degree, I moved back home to save money, but more truthfully, to focus on my health. I never imagined I would be here this long, and it has been a difficult journey to say the least, but I am grateful to have such a supportive family through this whole process.
This blog, however, has been a long-time dream which never intended to be more than a fun hobby to help reignite my love for writing. As life is full of surprises, this blog has become so much more than I ever anticipated.
My Story
Homegrown Roots: How We Came to Be
To be completely honest, the blog began as my own
personal traveling cookbook: I wanted to be able to easily take my recipes with me anywhere and not worry about lugging a rather chaotic recipe book here and there. Yet, the more time I spent designing and redesigning this website, the more I found myself enjoying the process, not so much the actual recipes. It never dawned on me the creative freedom blog writing could offer. I wanted to create something real, something personal and more... me. This Homegrown Roots blog allows me to connect to and share with all of you, and I couldn't be more excited or grateful! Join along on the journey for stories on my personal experiences, along with my thoughts on the nuances and complexities of humanity, physical and mental health, and the overall pursuit towards a fulfilling life. Of course, there will also be some fun stories in there, along with actionable advice, some recipes, book recommendations, hobby journeys, and just some silly times. The purpose of this blog is to help you find the beauty within the simple moments and in the interconnectivity of us all. I hope by telling my story, you may be able to connect to my words and feel less alone. If at the end of the day my words help one person, even if only a little, then this all would be worth it to me. Thank you for stopping by and I hope to see you again within the Homegrown Roots community! For now, human bean signing out.
