About

Now and then, we wander. Everyday, we cope.


Hi, I’m Laurie and I’m a weird amalgamation of everything people think I’m not. I write, take photos, travel and play video games.

I’m also pretty neurotic.

This blog started out as a record of how travel helps me cope and how it affects my mental health. But I think this will grow into something that won’t just focus on the fact that I like to get away so much. All my hobbies (they’re a lot and on different ends of the spectrum) help me cope one way or another, I’ve realized. And I wanna share how they keep me sane.

It’s a blank canvass that I want to slowly drag my paintbrush through. Please bare with me as a try to find my voice in all this crazy– and by crazy, I mean the mess in my neurotic mind.

Welcome. Please come in and don’t forget to pet the dog before you leave.
