Welcome to…

The Maye Flower

Hello, World!

Hello, I’m Andreea!

As a bay area native, I work in Emergency Services Communication by day and I have worked in related industries for over 16 years. Helping people in some capacity has always been a part of my calling, but now it is time to expand into my own ventures.

My blogging journey has been just that - a journey. It has taken many years and experiences to bring me here, where I am finally ready to share.

I first started blogging around 2018 when I had a short-lived blog with my older sister (if you know, you know). Life changes ended that blog, and then I started my own blog again in 2019. But, once again, life happened. I grew more comfortable at my job, started traveling, made new friends, and worked A LOT. Ultimately, at that time I lacked the discipline to put effort into manifesting my ideas the way I wanted to and so, once again I put the blog back on the shelf... until now!

TheMayeFlower is my comprehensive guide to the things I love most in this beautiful life - Traveling and Home. A friend once told me her father used to always say “there are many places I want to visit but only one place I want to live,” and that eloquently sums up exactly how I feel. I am a proud homeowner in San Francisco. I am a proud civil service worker in San Francisco. I love my city, and there is no place like home. With that being said, I love to explore. Traveling rejuvenates me and has contributed to my personal growth and mental health tremendously. This blog is comprised of all my favorite things, places, and sprinkled with great tips for you to enjoy. It is the best of both worlds that shape me.

I hope as you read through TheMayeFlower, you find inspiration, joy, and maybe a few useful tips for your own adventures and home.

May this blog be a source of positivity, and reminder to embrace the beauty in both travel and the comfort of home.

With gratitude, Andreea Maye
