When I first had thoughts of starting a blog back in 2019, I knew I definitely wanted it to be about food. Fast forward a few months and I realized there was so much more than just food that I wanted to offer my community. That's how I came up with the name Sonya's Food For Thought. Now, not only can I talk about food, but also my other life joys such as fitness, photography, travel, life, arts, and fashion. I started this blog to help me maintain a balanced lifestyle on top of my studies as well as giving me a medium to channel my creative nature and share my exploration of the city with others. With the start of the COVID pandemic in early 2020, I made it my main objective to use my platform to support local restaurants and small businesses, in addition to introducing people to new things, spreading kindness and positivity in my community, and sharing all the things I love about life in Richmond! ☺ If even just one person feels inspired or learns something new after reading my blog posts, then it makes this all worth it.
