Oregon Road Trip

After a couple days spent milling around Portland in the near 100 degree heat, we decided to rent a car and flee to the cover of the woods.

The International Rose Test Garden [Oregon]

My favorite day in Portland was when we took to the edge of the city to explore the International Rose Test Garden.

Bainbridge Island [Washington]

Our second full day in Seattle saw us ditch the city for a ferry ride to the nearby Bainbridge Island, set on squeezing in a hike during our short visit.

Seattle, Washington

I spent my youth pining for Alex Karev and Derek Shepherd in those precious after school hours where I could curl up and watch Grey's Anatomy, so it's putting it lightly to say Seattle has always been a dream.

After popping home on a quick flight from the Bahamas, I unpacked my sturdy duffel and packed a fresh suitcase so I'd be ready to jet off for Seattle the next morning.

A Tribute to 'The Good Years' [I love college.]

As some of you know, I just graduated from college. And when people ask me about it, what comes to mind isn't 22 hour study sessions or tough teachers or even tiny dorms.

It's the people. The experience. The life that those things breathe into you.
