The Best Of: Round Trip

December 1, 2018

Four flippin’ years. If you would’ve told the bright-eyed girl with a dream to start a blog on that snow day (probably still in her pjs) that she’d still be chugging along four years later, I’m not even sure I’d believe you. This blog has been some of the best hands-on experience for personal and professional growth and just a darn fun hobby. Writing about experiences makes you an active thinker, not a passive bystander. Round Trip has given me the outlet and the audience to do just that.

That being said, there’s been dozens of posts published (almost 200) in the amount of time someone could get her bachelor’s degree. So on my blog’s birthday, I’m sharing some of my top posts over these past 1460 days:
