Come Along my Journey to Hong Kong

Sham Shui Po

Hi! Welcome to my first blog post. 

When I first became more involved in social media, I started to notice and adore bloggers. I wanted to start a blog myself as a sort of record of my adventures to look back on one day and maybe even inspire others to start their own. Whether that be through travel, education, a new career, or even going to that new café that just opened up, the adventures are endless. 

Studying abroad has always been one of my biggest dreams. I accomplished that dream in the summer of 2016 when I lived in Paris for a little over a month as a part of a study abroad group. That experience, though unforgettable, has no written records about my time there. I have a thousand photos but a photograph can only capture a second of my day. As a writer and traveler, recording my memories and places, describing a smell, reflecting on my emotions both good and bad, it's an important process. Now on my second study abroad trip, I felt that this was the perfect location and opportunity to begin my blog as a record of my adventure. 

I am now living in Hong Kong and will be traveling around as much as I can while in school here. Look forward to many articles on my experiences, all of the ups and downs, and the small unexpected changes that occur when moving to a foreign country.
