Birthday wishes and Boarding passes
Its officially my favorite month of the year… May 💗🌸 May feels like the month where everything starts coming back to life again. Flowers start blooming, the weather gets warmer, sunsets stay longer, and suddenly life feels exciting again. For me, May has always felt a little extra special because it’s my birthday month. This year, I’m turning 25… and honestly, I still don’t know how I feel about it. It feels strange in the most beautiful way. I don’t feel old, but I defini

Miles away from who I was
Back when I was 20, I packed up my life and left my hometown, chasing a dream I had for years — to move to Tampa, Florida. When I first got to Tampa, everything felt so new and exciting.

So I decided to find a photographer in Charleston and reached out to a

All about Romance
Leaving Italy was a lot harder than I expected. I had such an incredible experience there that I wasn’t ready to let it go. So when it was time to head to France, I wasn’t as excited as I thought I would be. In fact, I cried and called my best friend for hours, trying to find ways to stay in Italy. Since I had already paid for this part of the trip, I had no choice but to keep going and explore another unfamiliar place. This was week two of my solo trip, and my social battery
