.cheers to love notes and new friends.
Knowing our worth, our limits, and how to set boundaries & determine the access we give. In late 2023, my husband and I started discussing where to live. I am a US citizen, and he is a German citizen. We made a list of the pros and cons of several US and European cities. Jumping…

.what i value now.
I’ve been doing my usual overthinking lately about how I’ve been spending my time and using my energy. My husband and I have been traveling back and forth between the US and Germany for about a year now, and I’ve been reflecting on the things that I do and don’t value as we navigate this…

One month ago, I married the love of my life…
It’s weird because if you asked me last year if I thought I’d even have a partner in 2024, I’d say no. I did not believe I would have a partner, but here I am, married. Everything happened pretty quickly, I guess. Some know the story, but I figured I’d share how it all started.…
