THE YEAR OF TRAVEL

I wrote an article for The Village, which will be coming out next week! I'm super excited to be a part of their work, but I wanted to share a little snippet of what's to come. Plus, I've been dying to show you all more pictures from our amazing little getaway to Wallace this Christmas break (besides the ones you have already seen on Instagram). Enjoy!

"It’s 2015, and with any new year brings endless possibilities and a string of new years resolutions! If you are anything like me, this will be your umpteenth attempt at writing out a laundry list of tasks to complete followed by months of regret for not getting any of them done. Not this year. This year I mentally jotted down three simple things I wanted to accomplish this year, and I am feeling mighty confident in myself.
1. TRAVEL OFTEN. No more excuses of not enough time or not enough money. I think people take for granted how easy traveling can really be when you take a step back and see it in smaller pieces. Yes, traveling to exotic destinations would be amazing, but those aren’t the only types of travel I am talking about here. Step outside. Take a day trip to a nearby city of yours that you haven’t had the opportunity to fully explore. Try new restaurants, take a weekend road trip to the next state over, go camping, go hiking, and if money and time allows, by all means travel the world! But don’t let excuses get in the way anymore. Traveling is right outside your door. Make this the year of travel! So much good will come to your soul by exploring the tiniest of nooks to the highest mountains."
Make sure to read the rest come next week! xo
