Before We Go Anywhere

Between Stops is a personal record of vacations and local adventures—walks, detours, and experiences I hadn’t tried before.

I like new things. The kind that start as an idea or a note on a list and turn into an afternoon, a meal, a stretch of time that asks for attention. What interests me isn’t checking something off—it’s noticing how the experience settles once I’m there.

Some entries come from travel. Others are close to home. All of them live in the space between planning and moving on.

This isn’t about seeing everything or doing it the right way.

It’s about trying something new, slowing down long enough to notice what stays with you, and letting the in-between moments do their work.
