Viva La Vida
Viva La Vida is a magazine that focuses on lifestyle, travel, and story shared. The name which translates to “Live Long and Happy Life”! As the editor-in-chief, I share my travel tales with readers throughout the year. Viva La Vida stands out by providing readers with a first-person and immersive journey from the editor’s perspective. It’s not just a lifestyle magazine; think of it more as a journal or story that invites everyone to explore deeper layers of experience and emotion.
Beyond showcasing local cultures and recommending activities, accommodations, and restaurants, Viva La Vida aims to convey a lifestyle.
