About me!

also me

Hi, my name is Marc, and I like making things. It's why I made this website! It's called 'Dolce and Vita', because I love sweets and the PlayStation Vita.

My hobbies are traveling, baking, studying languages, Asian Pop music (mostly Japan, Korea, China, Taiwan, and Kazakhstan), music games, and of course, working on this website!

I'm a married man, too. I've been with my husband David for almost 10 years, and we've been married for almost 3 years!

After a 3-year healing journey that overlapped with a global pandemic, I began travel writing and vlogging more. My goal with sharing my travels is to get people curious and excited about our world, to entertain people with my knowledge, to challenge our perceptions of our world and society, and most importantly, to show people that our world is beautiful and worth loving.

My links and socials

My main blog is chimastyle.com - this is exclusively my travel blog, where I also post my travel and outdoor-related content!

If you want to check me out on social media, you can find me on Instagram, Mastodon, and Lemon8.

I also have a Japanese travel blog on Note - it updates whenever I'm outside of Chicago!

You can also find me on tumblr, but... I'm not giving that info freely.

You can also check out my Youtube channel ←, where I share my traveling, baking, and outdoor life!
