It’s been forever since I’ve posted anything, thanks to the stress of school, work and extracurriculars. This has been one of the busiest, most stressful semesters, but also one of my wildest, most fun semesters (semester reflection coming soon, so I’ll save more for that).

Both of my blog posts last week were about Mexico, but I love writing about travel-related things, so here’s another one. There’s so many things to do in the Quintana Roo are (where many popular tourist destinations in Mexico are!). I actually felt that my family could have stayed longer, but I guess this just…

Even though I’ve been back home for nearly a week already, I’m still missing my time in Cancún, Mexico. I love traveling, and Mexico makes the third country I’ve been to this year (which is exciting!). I’ve been feeling the urge to just go and travel a lot more lately, and I’m chalking that up…

I’ve been in Des Moines pretty consistently for about two and a half years now, and that’s given me some time to find great places to hang out and eat around the city. Des Moines is on the rise, and even though it’s a pretty small city, there’s still some fun things to do, especially…

Winter may not be over yet, but I had too many cool pictures to share, so I rounded up my favorite photos I’ve taken so far this winter. Most of my photos are from my adventures in Spain and Portugal, while some are senior photos I took in snowy weather for one of my close…

While there are many different regions of Spain, and they all have their own differences, I decided to write a post about what to expect when traveling to Spain. I just arrived back home not too long ago from studying abroad in Portugal and Spain for two weeks, and it was an amazing experience that’s…
