i’m not going to college???

hi friends! it feels really crazy that i am writing this right now, i have spent so much time reading world race blogs and watching videos on how to pack and what a day in the life looks like in other countries. so here’s the thing, i am not going to college, or at least not yet. 

instead i am going to be taking a 9 month gap year traveling to three different countries (details coming soon) where i get to participate in the Lord’s ministry. i will get the chance to teach English, preach the gospel on the streets, and feed strangers! there is an endless list of things i will be up to and i will be here to tell you all about it!

it may not be the most conventional thing to travel instead of going to college, but Jesus did not call us to follow the status quo and stay in the comfortable. many are called to college and that’s awesome, but for this season He has bigger and better plans. i have put my yes on the table and i’m really to make new friends and love His people!

right now i don’t have a lot of details as the routes to choose from come out in the Fall time. even in the unknown, i DO know that He is good and has crazy things in store for me. FUNDRAISING STARTS NOW!! i have a billion ideas on how to raise and earn this money in a little over a year and i hope you want to be a part of it! for right now, if you are interested in donating message me or donate right here on my blog page!

lots and lots of love,
