#hometownglory
Hey everyone, Today’s post is a little different from my usual blogs.

GOODBYE 2017: REFLECTIONS & RESOLUTIONS

Hi everyone! In my last post I talked all about my trip to Lisbon, but that wasn’t the only city that I visited when I traveled to Europe over Thanksgiving. I also swung by Málaga, Spain to soak up some sun and check out what this beach town had to offer. I am happy to say…
