"Breaking the mold" by stepping out of the comforts of home in south LA, here lies details of my cross country adventures to Little Rock, Boise, Washington, D.C., and Raleigh. Begun as a way to chronicle my Child Life Internship process and summer at camp in 2008, I continue to document my self-proclaimed "gypsy life." Over the years, I embarked on new adventures as a tour guide in our nation's capital, counselor at a very special summer camp, and graduate student at N.C. State University.
