I have also been inspired by my lovely roomie and her buddy to blog about the adventure I hope to have. They have an awesome website called Wander and The Runaway, where they hope to build a community that supports their adventure and keeps them accountable to follow through. I want them to take me with them on their blogging/real adventure. I am kind of inviting myself. (hope that's okay) ;)

I want to do something out of the state of Missouri that involved coffee, culture, and community. That may be one thing that lasts all summer or a bunch of small trips. I am going to put this blog into practice by actively seeking it out how coffee, culture, and community interact in the real world.

Awesome plan Bethany! I want to take this opportunity to plug Pittsburgh. We have lots of cool coffee shops up here, at which board games can be played! :)
ReplyDeleteYay for adventures! Especially ones that might involve us seeing you! Perhaps a Spring Break trip...
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I will definitely keep you accountable for having fun adventures. I send love!
Jay and Amber,
ReplyDeleteYes, I was actually thinking a Spring Break trip would be AWESOME!
There is also a World Vision headquarters about thirty miles outside of Pittsburgh...which would be cool too!
Hey, I love your blog!! You so remind me of my daughter, Christy Villegas! She has the same dreams as you! She loves travel and HAS traveled - Belize, Guatemala (with me), Peru, and Mexico (quite bit). She also has always desired to work for Christian Foundation for Children and Ages (CFCA), she is a graphic designer, and loves to blog too. Blogs about her travels. She met her husband while going to school in Mexico (immersion Spanish school) and now they live here in Wichita. She, her husband and I started a dream - a travel agency that specializes in travel to Latin America especially Mexico - called Goin Latin Travel and Event Planning. My daughter's photos and blogs are found on twitter: @goinlatin, Facebook/goinlatin, and www.goinlatin.blogspot.com. Please "follow,like, friend and/or comment" with us!
ReplyDeleteBy the way, I love the coffee themed backdrop and site! Really, I just love it. I will come here often. Keep up on the great work you've begun and FOLLOW THOSE DREAMS, JUST DECIDE TO DO IT!
