the first of many love letters to this peaceful place I currently call home 💌 my restless feet usually have me chasing the next adventure, but after a whirlwind year in Edinburgh, this past year here has been pure magic. as much as I know I could stay forever, I feel the clock ticking and new adventures are calling. thinking a year of travel is around the corner for me. in the meantime, I’ll be soaking in all the sheep, bunnies, lovebirds, wildflowers, sunsets, and soft grass that I can 🌿✨

if you know me at all, you know I put a lot of effort into my birthday each year. today, I turned 28, and I am so happy to be alive. this world is hard, and probably always will be, but life can be so beautiful. it should be beautiful. for everyone.

my journal entry for the day says it all -

“This morning, I woke unchanged,
No trace of “28” upon my skin.
No wisdom weighing heavier, no kinder touch,
No deeper empathy—just me, as I’ve always been.

For years, I’ve walked this path,
Sure of who I am, or who I’ve longed to be.
And now, I stand, wholly myself—
The only one of me that’s ever been, or will ever be.

How beautiful, this truth we hold:
No one else will ever wear my soul.
How sweet this life, this singular gift—
To know myself, to feel this shift.

I know my path, I see my way,
I know the self I’ve grown today.
More myself than ever before,
This is 28—and I’m glad to stay.”

Summer 2021. I’m floating around the world, with

Summer 2021.

I’m floating around the world, with Rome as my base. I had already lived in Rome at least 5 times, but something felt different. I no longer saw the charm. I started noticing the “dirtier” parts of the city, the men staring me down, the unsafe feeling I got when I would return home late. So, I picked up my kindle to find a getaway and I landed in Scotland, reading Outlander (duh).

Fast forward to March 2022 - I’ve applied to the University of Edinburgh for grad school, to spend a year in a country I’d never been too. I didn’t actually want to go back to school, but I wanted to try the UK out for a bit. I took a final trip to Rome and popped over to Edinburgh for two days.

Two days in the city and I’m in love. Not just with the city, but with a boy I met right before I had to get on a train to London, home bound the next day.

Who meets someone over a 2 day trip to a random country and thinks they’ll stay connected? We did. We very much did. We talked everyday for 3 months.

After 3 months back in FL, I finally returned to Edinburgh. I had a wild 24 hours of travel, so I tried to get my head on straight since I had plans to meet with this boy that night. The day I returned to Edinburgh, we made plans to go out for drinks in the city.

We never ended up going out for drinks, but stayed in and set up my tiny ass flat instead. We sipped on wine, ate Indian food (probably too late at night), and listened to the Chuck Jackson record he got me as a “welcome back to Edi” present.

And that was it. We have stayed together everyday for 2 years now. Exactly like that first night, just excited to be in each other’s company.

I cannot imagine a life without you in it. Being such an independent person and making the choice to love someone, to allow someone into my life, has been a true privilege because you’re the person. I wouldn’t do it for anyone else. I wouldn’t want to.

Here’s to 2 years pal, thanks for everything - from the headaches caused by laughing to the blisters caused by adventures. I love you truly.
