Welcome!

Hello dear reader, and welcome to The Everything Journal.

I’ve been mulling over this idea for some time now: to create someplace to share the stories, places, photos, foods and friendships from my travels.

I’m someone who spends plenty of time reflecting. I love to record, remember and replay my daily musings – in fact, I like it so much, that I’ve journaled every day since I was twelve years old!! You can only begin to imagine how much I cringe reading those back...

My long-term travels in 2016 inspired me more than ever to create somewhere I could share a slice of my many adventures – the incredible, the horrible, the disgusting, the glorious, the weird and the wonderful.

As for the name goes, I literally found the quote to my soul about a week before I left for my big trip. Quick disclaimer: I cannot stand inspirational quotes; I honestly shudder at the mention of them. But I read this gem and it literally rearranged my entire mindset. 

 It goes: “Everything you have ever wanted is on the other side of fear.”

That’s exactly what this blog is – the everything. The everything that I found when wandering the world.

So, I present to you The Everything Journal – a snippet of all my most memorable moments; those gone by, and the ones yet to come. Welcome, to everything.
