It’s been two years since I’ve moved out of my beautiful hometown of New Braunfels, Texas.

*Nostalgia hits hard… I absolutely loved college. It was hands down the best four years of my (22 year old) life. I gained friendships that I know will last a lifetime. I learned so much more than I ever thought I would. I traveled to different countries and became friends with people from all over …
Last night I had a dream where I was saying goodbye to my grandpa. I gave him the biggest hug, and it felt so real. He told me he loved me and I told him I loved him back, I couldn’t fight the tears… they were streaming down my face just as they did when …
