From Colorado to Utah to Arizona, I began road tripping when I moved to Colorado back in 2023. (I can’t believe I’ve been a Coloradan for two and a half years now!) Sure, there are pretty things about Northern Minnesota and Wisconsin, but ultimately, it wasn’t for me. Living out west has been the best decision to my life and I’m excited to share it with you all through hiking and road tripping 🏔️

Just a girl on a solo road trip to explore the world (U.S. edition). Did you know I launched my travel blog? Well, I did! Website title will be coming out soon, but this blog features a lot of hiking, road tripping, and book recommendations (because I’m a book nerd and future librarian, duh). Are you ready to see the official website?!

But really, my ability to no longer care when people see me doing silly little videos on the side of the road is incredible

Let’s talk period underwear care! 🩸 ✨ I found the perfect (!!) detergent that actually keeps things fresh without ruining the fabric. @daintiedelicates is specifically for your delicates — gentle, effective, and has no hard chemicals 🙌🏻
If you’re interested in period underwear, don’t let regular detergent ruin it. This is your sign to treat your delicates right 💕

Just finished The Land of Promise: The Seven Seals (Book 2) by Cathy Warshaw and I’m hooked. As a YA mystery, it’s packed with twists that kept me flipping pages late into the night. I loved how the story balances adventure, faith, and suspense—it’s the kind of book you finish and immediately want to talk about. Highly recommend for YA fans who love a good mystery with heart.

One of my favorite hiking essentials is a good balm for dry skin or lips. I personally love to use @_jwhoney_ not only because it’s all natural, but every portion of every sale goes towards The Bee Conservancy charity to help educate the next generation of beekeepers and help fight Colony Collapse Disorder. Looking to also support the bees and save at the same time? use the promo code: COURTNEY5 for a discount off your first order!

Summer break is over. Work has started. But I have completed my final quarter of grad school (just an internship left to do!). To celebrate more freedom, a hike was of course, necessary.

There’s nothing I love more than a cup of coffee to give me that afternoon pick me up ☕️ One of my favorites lately has been @succulentroast ‘s caramel flavored roast 😋 Naturally sweet with a buttery smooth taste, it’s the perfect flavored coffee. What’s a flavor you would try?
