 I am 5’8”. I consider myself to be tall, relative to other women.  However, I am always the shortest when my family is around:  I haven’t always been a shrimp though:  Shoutout to my sister-in-law Taylor, Foch, and my mom for giving my shortness a run for my money 

When I started running 6 years ago, I used an app to track my route, mileage, and pace.

Earlier this year, three of my brothers, my sister, and I went to Tokyo for five days. I took lots of pictures but never put them anywhere. I’m posting them here with a small learning of mine.   Tokyo was my first time traveling to a “English isn’t very common”-speaking place.

The short answer: I need something to do during my downtime.   The long answer: I am looking for some purpose. I do a lot of interesting or cool things and I travel frequently.
