Meet Me

What is this place

What is this place?
Hi, I’m Michelle and this is my own little corner of the interwebs where I write, share photos, and interact with others in the blog-o-shpere. So in addition to that–Who am I? I am –in one way or another– the following: hiker + backpacker + swimmer + pediatric respiratory therapist + INFP + mental health registered nurse + traveler + cat parent + aunt + gardener + photographer + blogger + medical science junkie + adventure-seeker + DIY enthusiast + girlfriend + voracious reader + history and science nerd + football fanatic + aging athlete + wannabe chef + perpetual student + trying not to succumb to the trappings of a 9-5 life.

Everyday life doesn’t have to be routine. Anyone can do just about anything he or she wants to do– sometimes one has to find creative ways in doing it. Sometimes one has to tear down the barriers that might stopping them. Everyday is an opportunity to choose your own adventure. That is what I ultimately write about.
