My Hero, the Stranger
Everyone told me I was crazy for wanting to travel through Central America by myself as a small young girl from the middle of nowhere of rural eastern Washington. I had just gotten through a bad breakup that extended through the whole summer. I almost wanted to do it to escape the constant phone calls and disparagement of my ex more than any other reason since I always eventually answered to tell him to leave me alone. Therefore, travelling internationally to avoid having a working phone sounded great, no matter how scared I was.

Heading South of the Border (Travel from Home #19)
In January, I headed south of the border for my fake travel trip—not to the South Carolina attraction, but to my own fake Mexico experience at home. I had a nice, enjoyable trip to start the calendar year off right.
