Five years ago today I hopped a plane and set foot in Paris for the very first time. I had come to study photography and little did I know in that moment that my life would be forever changed because of that trip.  I arrived jet lagged and psyched out of my mind to finally feast my eyes on this lovely city.  I stumbled upon my hotel this week during one of my walks in the afternoon.  It’s closed now and under renovations but it was exciting to stand there knowing the person I was when I first arrived that day and knowing who I am now. I quit my job when I had returned to the states and jumped in full time as a photographer and I have not regretted a single day of chasing that dream to a reality.

 

I am grateful for this life, the journey and the challenges that this adventure has brought me.  Cheers to whatever is next!
