In reply to Rachel Elyse. That's a good goal! I might have to join you in it, though I have a lot further to go :)

I’ve made it to 39 states so far!! Before I started traveling internationally I visited a lot of the U.S., and drove cross-country 4 times now so that checked off several I never thought I’d see. I’m more into checking off new countries at this point BUT I still love to see new states here. My goal is all 50 before I’m 50 haha.

Love the idea of being a scenery snob 🙂 Sounds like you are crushing it on your fifty states goal — and that’s an awesome trip you have coming up next. Happy travels!

I loved Kentucky! I think that that part of the country is so pretty, and I was honestly super surprised that I loved it so much. I am from Colorado so I am a little bit of a scenery snob, and I was so surprised at how beautiful the South is!

Way before I started traveling around the world I had the goal of visiting every US state. I have basically the same requirements as you for a state to “count”, and so far I have made it to 40 (thankfully I LOVE road trips!). I really think the United States is one of the most beautiful countries in the world! There is so much diversity here and there are some truly breathtaking landscapes. If only getting around was easier… Next up for me is the Texas, Oklahoma, Arkansas region.

In reply to Kat. Oh man, making a toast at my friend's rehearsal dinner last year really hit home how badly I needed to work on public speaking. I felt like a high-pitched leaf! Not my best look :P

Haha, love the “unflattering” pics with the horses!

Also, very well done on the public speaking. I too suffer terribly with nerves when public speaking (was shaking so much doing a reading at my friend’s wedding I imagine I must have just looked like a vibrating blur!), but like yourself I have tried to push myself out my comfort zone by starting a new job where I will have to public speak a lot more – terrifying, but hopefully I am up for the challenge as you seem to be 🙂

I can proudly say that i have been to 24 states and still counting. It is my bucket list to hit all 50.
