Over the next few months, stay tuned as I share stories, reflections, and articles surrounding holidays and life events from this past year. In a matter of 12 months, 8 countries, 2 US/Scotland roundtrips, and a summer camp, I have met so many amazing people. I have seen God work, and want to share what I encountered with whoever is willing to read.

As Spain will forever hold a place in my heart, I want this site to grow into something more. If any of you awesome readers have a travel story you want to share, or want a message God is putting on your heart, do not hesitate to reach out! Please email or message me and I will gladly help publish your articles!
