I'm Karina, Kiki to many (a nickname that stuck in high school).

Welcome to the space I've been cultivating since 2012. What started as The Unstocked Pantry, a collection of recipes and restaurant finds, has grown into something I couldn't have predicted: a personal archive of travel essays, wine discoveries, skincare obsessions, and the occasional book I can't stop talking about.

Just telling stories about what I love.

It’s where form meets feeling.
