In the year between graduating college and starting my marketing career at Elliance, I spent 11 months traveling and serving as a missionary overseas with an organization called The World Race. On this journey, I lived in 11 countries throughout South America, Southeast Asia, and Africa. There I encountered the most breathtaking people, places and cultures I have ever known. In that time I continued writing, keeping an online journal of my experience and sharing stories of the people I met and lessons I learned over the course of the year.
These were by no means written in a professional format — most were composed in the late hours of the night, sitting on dirty bus station floors, or between english lessons in muggy classrooms, listening to the sound of children playing outside.
They are personal accounts of lessons learned on the outskirts of my comfort zone. The honest, unfiltered words of a girl waking up to the realities of the world and finding growth in unexpected places.
