Today marks a bittersweet start of an end. My snowmobile is sold. The first indication that my time here in Utah is limited and that I’ll be leaving the state shortly after I graduate in Dec. So many great memories with this machine. On to new places with more adventures to come. Goodbye, my beloved Polaris 🏎 … Read More >Today marks a bittersweet start of an end. My snowmobile is sold.

Weekend trip to NYC is a wrap. Now back to Utah for class tomorrow at 7:30am! Sorry New York.

My 8 day trip to Australia is now in the books! Starting from Sydney, I got to catch up with my three Aussie friends, Morgan, Ally, and Emily. From there I took a flight to the heart of the outback, Yulara. This small town of 887 people is 460km from the next town over. After seeing aborigines and their sacred rock, Uluru, I flew to Melbourne where I rented a car and drove the Great Ocean Road. I spotted wild kangaroos and even a wild Koala! Australia has been 10/10 and I definitely plan on coming back. Until next time, KangarooLand! … Read More >My 8 day trip to Australia is now in the books!
