Blooming through experience. Memories through adventure.
This summer has been a very busy one! The first part of this blog post, where I talk about my trips to South Carolina and Colorado, can be found here. Following these short trips, I still had a few more fun weekend adventures planned. Between these, I continued working 50 hour-weeks, filling my time off [...]
One of my biggest motivations to get the COVID-19 vaccine was the ability to travel again. Traveling is one of my favorite things to do, and so many of my friends live in other states, so I have to fly or drive long hours to see them. The thought of getting on an airplane without [...]
