Last Day

Well I head home in about 12 hours. This has been such an amazing adventure and I have met so many cool people. Thank you for the prayers, thoughts, and support along the way. I have been truly blessed and I am so excited to share my stories over Christmas break! It's going to be so different next semester and I can't wait for another chance to run Granada!

As many of you noticed, I had a running bucket list. I've been trying to keep track of all the cool stuff I did this semester. And trying to think of more for the next one. If you have any suggestions for travel, tell me!!
