Welcome to the blog!

May is almost over... where did the time go?

I graduated from Penn State barely two weeks ago. My time there was magical - filled with experiences that I will always cherish with people I will never forget, but the time came to move on. My progress toward moving on began in Puerto Rico...

Just like last year, I found myself on a plane headed to Puerto Rico after the end of another semester at Penn State. Although the feeling was familiar, things were quite different this time. I was no longer a student (at least not at Penn State, and I haven’t started at Texas yet). I was no longer headed to an unfamiliar place full of unfamiliar people. Things just felt different - and they were. I am different. Next year I will move to Texas with Mar (coauthor of this blog) and begin the next stage of my life. This blog will be about a summer of travel before the beginning of this next stage.

Ok, let’s get started.
