ABOUT

i am. Isabella Ann Malatesta

& I am an open book. I started an Instagram blog to share my experiences with love, bullying, rejection, sex, insecurity, loneliness and fear. I did it to vent and learned that, in the process, I was helping others who were struggling with similar issues.

Since my beginnings as a blogger, I have begun to branch out into travel writing as well. You will often find me jotting down stories of my experiences abroad as well as searching for some secret local spots whenever I find myself somewhere new.

In my career, I am a natural communicator, an accomplished creative writer, an organization expert, and a forever student. I’ve accumulated over 5 years of experience in digital marketing and always try to find a way to insert hospitality and care into whatever I’m doing.

Testimonials

I have received 100s of messages from people ranging in age from 8-80, & this is what they had to say:

“i don’t know how i started following you, but i love how honest you are, because so many people only say the good things or only the bad and you say what’s really going on. it sounds cheesy but you make me think differently which i need sometimes and i guarantee i’m not the only one.”

“i just spent an hour looking at your account and reading your captions. i love your writing and your view on things, your whole blog is really inspiring! i don’t know why you followed my account, but i’m really glad you did.”

“i love your page and your energy. you’re a huge inspiration for me and i hope to make a difference somewhere in the world in a way that you seem to do.”

I am a graduate of the University of Michigan – Ann Arbor with a Bachelor of Arts in Communications, Creative Writing, and Digital Media.
