What I Seek
I don't need beaches and scorching heat. I don't need endless cocktails served to me in the pool. Bikini pics with a backdrop of palm trees and endless oceans are nice, but maybe I should think twice before thinking it's for me. Instead, I want mountains and vast landscapes of untouched nature.

6 months ago, I said to myself that I wanted to turn things around. 2019 wasn’t my best year, and so I wanted to end it in a better position than when I started; to start 2020 off well and basically have my shit together before turning 25.
