BLAST TO THE PAST!

I really felt like doing a different kind of post today. I find that I get a lot of release from writing and expressing myself. I have just had a lot on my mind lately thinking about the past and the future. I thought I'd share some pictures from 2 years ago when I went to Thailand/India for 3 months. It was an amazing experience working for a cause I am very passionate about and feel like that is what I am supposed to do with my life. I worked with an organization called NightLight who help rescue women from prostitution and provide them with alternate employment. The people I met and experiences I had were absolutely amazing and I have been thinking lots about what the next stage in my life is and where in the world it will take me. Here's a few pictures from my trip, thanks for letting me go down memory lane a bit with you! P.S. Sorry about all the "self-shots" haha!
