Adventures at home – get outta town

If you’re an explorer, you’re an explorer. There’s nothing you can do about it. I found me and my best friend once a week we would get away, just for a few hours drive to a rural town 30 min away, see new sights, eat at a new restaurant (restaurants were open at this time.)…

Sometimes you just need one.

That one person who knows you can make it. That one person who reads your post. That one person who is there. Who will stay by your side, who will fly anywhere with you and pursue anything.Sometimes you just need that one person. That one person who believes in you. Who will watch you play…

Adventures at home – cooking

Baby I went from hating cooking to actually really loving it recently, so listen up. Why I started trying to like cooking You have to eat to live. That’s all. And I realized I was spending about $500 a month eating out (my eyes are covered, I’m embarrassed) which is $500 I could be saving…

At the end of the day I think everyone benefits from travel, and if this article describes you, traveling actually might be the…

Travel vs. Vacation

Dreams that wait….

Not every dream happens overnight. I’m in this weird place right now where I decided to go on a long, indefinite backpacking trip. Yet I am finishing out my semester of dance, staying at my job I love a little longer, spending time with family and friends a little longer. And it freaks me out…

I’m staring at the back of a shirt as I wait in the clinic of one of my 5 jobs. Difficult? Yes.Impossible? No. It says. Amen.
