  • This time last week I was pulling into Carolina Beach with my parents for a few days of some needed sun and sand. ⛱️☀️ And while I slept in the following morning, my Dad woke up and snapped this beautiful photo of the sunrise from our balcony.🌅 Can I go back? 😊 ⠀ #sunrise #carolinabeach #onlyinCB #northcarolina #beachlife #beautifulsunrise
  • So this past weekend I headed to the Smoky Mountains. And of course mother nature didn't play along. The previous week had been warm and sunny but Saturday was cold and rainy. (So cold that it actually SNOWED ❄️ on my later in my hike!)⁣ ⁣ But I still went and head a great time! One of the funnest memories were all the small stream crossings on my hike. My guidebook mentioned that there were 6 but that they were pretty insignificant except maybe during wet periods in the spring. I ended up crossing over like 12 streams of sorts I think since it had rained.⁣ ⁣ Though only one of my feet got wet! (I had stepped in what I thought was 3 inches of water and it ended up being like 8 inches.) I'll take that accomplishment since I encountered rain, sleet, snow, and 12 stream-like crossings on my hike!⁣ ⁣ #smokymountains #smokymountainnationalpark #greatsmokymountains #FindYourPark #nationalpark #cadescove #richmountain #adventureisoutthere #goexplore #hiking #hikingadventures #lovehiking #hikingday
  • Headed to the Smokies this past weekend for my birthday. And even though it was a bit cold, I'm glad I got outside while it was sunny. I'm ready for this winter to be over! #smokymountains #greatsmokymountains #abramsfalls #outdooradventure #goexplore #hikeon
  • I hate the end of summer. It's my favorite season hands down. And I feel like I shouldn't be too greedy this year since I actually got almost 6 months of summer. ☀️ 😊 Maybe I just belong in places like Bali year round? ** ** ** #bali #balilife #uluwatu #dreamlandbeach #thisisindonesia #southeastasia #southeastasiatrip #southeastasiatravel #sheisnotlost #wearetravelgirls
  • Easily one of my favorite shots from my trip to the Elephant Nature Park outside of Chiang Mai. And as I took a look back through my photos from there yesterday I realized something...I am apparently obsessed with taking close-ups of elephants! All of my favorite shots are of like half an elephant's face. And I love them!❤️🐘 ** ** ** ** #elephant #elephantnatureparkchiangmai #elephantnaturepark #elephantsactuary #elephantphotography #chiangmai #chiangmaithailand #iloveelephants #feedyouradventure #wanderlust #exploremore #fujifilmx_us #passionpassport #gltlove
  • Wakeboarding + Lake Jocassee = ❤️. And yes, wakeboarding! I'm not very good yet, I'm only just now attempting my first "hops" as I like to call them, but I've really grown to love it. I only first started three years ago and it's now something I look forward to each summer. And it also makes me happy to pick up a new hobby, a new sport as an adult. Too often we seem to stop doing the things we love. And I'm always excited to embrace something new. ** ** ** #lakejocassee #lakelife #wakeboarding #wakeboardinglife #adventureisoutthere #goexplore #yeahthatgreenville #GVLtoday #greenvillesc #upstate #southcarolina #discoversc #visitoconeesc
