I still remember the first time I chatted with Chelsey on Facebook.

3 destinations, 2.5 weeks, 40+ hours in the air, 20 hours driving, dozens of delicious meals, + 2 large suitcases later…one of the biggest adventures of my life has come to a close. Traveling has always had a way of healing + inspiring me, but this trip fueled my soul + healed my heart more than […]
