just hold on, we're going home

In the depths of the northwest winter, one question, and one answer changed the course of my life.

how can one simple moment, change the way you completely feel about one person?

for the better. for the goodness.

he popped the question. I accepted. 2014 begins with a bang.

one thing I can add to my list: get married. settle down.

I might be committing, but our adventure is truly beginning.

born to explore!

I have always craved adventure. And I always was striving for the next one. When you begin to work every day, all day and only have a couple days off a week, you begin to need adventure.

I need to feel uneven ground, get a little dirty, and feel the demand of my body to move forward. I need to feel the air outside… oh what a concept. Outside. I sit in a cubicle, 8 hours a day, 5 days a week. I am blessed, like I say all the time... I have a big window. I’m blessed again, but I want more than to look outside while breathing inside air.
