This weekend, I headed to Palm Springs with friends to (not) go to Coachella—they attended the festival; I soaked up the sun with girlfriends from the house we rented! I definitely experienced some FOMO when they came back from Beyoncé, but also reveled in my relaxed weekend. I ...read more
It's almost impossible to believe, but after purchasing tickets a year ago (you've gotta jump on flight deals when you see them!), Jonah and I are leaving for Vietnam this Friday! Vietnam is a country I've wanted to visit for as long as I can remember. My dad was drafted into the ...read more
