Blog / Travel Journal

The first stop on our trip after visiting our folks was Savannah, Georgia. I’m telling you, it is one of the most beautiful cities I’ve been to. Absolutely gorgeous. We had the privilege of vacationing with our friends Erin and Eric, who had been there before, and their daughter Evelyn, who was a first-timer like us. Erin is a planner, so we basically had our itinerary planned out for us. 😭 So amazing.

This blog post is inspired by my pal Claire Connelly who has been blogging about her breast cancer journey. Go check it out—she is hilarious and wrote a haiku blog post about her chemo treatment, which is much better than this one (and probably more correct poetically). While you’re there, check out the rest of her blog. She’s a creative genius.

Well, hello! James and I are currently in Asheville, NC. It’s been about a month since my last post. Turns out that balancing a 40-hour work week with driving, planning, actually seeing a city, and visiting with loved ones is harder than I thought. So I’m here to tell you that I didn’t die, I just haven’t prioritized blogging and sharing my life as much as I would have liked to. It’s called ~ * living in the moment * ~

Ope! Just like that, we’re on our way. After spending a week and a half with my parents in Franklin, James and I are now in Bloomington visiting his parents.

I’ve always wanted to take a year to travel. I’m a big believer in living life to its fullest, taking risks, and having no regrets. Life is short. There is no “perfect” time to follow your dreams.
