Hi! I don’t know how to write this post. I love you. I say that to people a lot. And it means something different to me depending on who I’m talking to, but that by no means detracts from what it means in its entirety. And it doesn’t mean that I use it recklessly. It Continue reading

Hiiii! I turn 21 tomorrow! When I turned 19 I did something similar to this, but then forgot last year, so I’m bringing it back! I love love love birthdays for everyone. Another year of life! YES YES YES! I’m so happy to have you here! ANYWAY, 21 Things I Know To Be True Things Continue reading

This post may quickly devolve into nonsense, but I am just desperately trying to get my thoughts into some sort of order.

Don’t get me wrong, I really really struggle with the willingness to tell people how I’m really feeling. I create all these lies in my head about why I shouldn’t Continue reading

Hey! It’s Thursday! Today my heart feels so full to the brim. It’s a beautiful day, I’m surrounded by the most incredible people, and I feel so grateful. Today wise ole Mar Stutz told me “these moments demand your savoring” and she is 1000% right. I can never explain exactly why I feel the way Continue reading

   Hi, I’m coming at you live from our AirBnB in Cusco. The lights are off and my energy is still strangely high because life’s just so good. Like ridiculously, incredibly, brings-me-to-tears good.
