meet the world. change the world. I set this motto for myself when I began my solo travel adventure as a grounding foundation. The belief that by immersing myself in people and the world, I would be more able to create positive impact. And no, it is not always the best. world. ever. Yes, there is an abyss of bad news. Yet, when we open our eyes and hearts to see it, we find it is the best. world. ever. Not despite its flaws but because of our will to focus on and create the good. My depiction of city to city and theme to theme is woven with my own mental-health challenges and learning to love myself, build resilience, and the power of dialectics (two truths can exist at the same time). I hope these words find you, speak to you, and transport you in a time you need them most. Thank you for making it the best. world. ever.
