Last week, over the second half of my spring break, I went on a pretty spontaneous road trip with a good friend of mine. Our original plan was simply to see the Grand Canyon (which we did), but we also ended up visiting Antelope Canyon, Horseshoe Bend, Monument Valley and even managed to stop by Joshua Tree on our way back.

We drove 1700 miles across 3 states in 4 days. It sounds like a lot, but neither of us were exhausted or frustrated at any point. The trip was perfect. Perfect. I honestly couldn’t have asked for anything more.

Here’s a lil’ preview of the trip taken on our way to Phoenix to pick up some friends who joined us on our little journey:

Oh and yes, after talking about this for years, I’ve finally started my own blog!! I’d tell you it’s because I’m a passionate writer and photographer who aspires to be an inspiration for all those adventurous souls out there but really… I just have a ton of gorgeous photos and I can’t dump them all on Instagram. I hope you all enjoy my little internet gallery and feel free to reach out to me if you have any questions!
