I have a number of hobbies, many of which I have neglected because of school. However, I always find time for anything having to do with food. I love baking, cooking, eating, anything to do with food!
I am always baking and cooking, especially if it's desserts and sweets. I try new recipes as often as I can, sometimes getting some really successful results and sometimes dumping an entire recipe's effort in the garbage. Regardless of the results, the process tends to be stress relieving and calms me down when I need a break. I use recipes from Pinterest, my brain, home, or other people. It just depends on the level of creativity or laziness that day. With the variety of things I've made, I've always wanted to start a food blog, but I have already started a cookbook.
I love reading. Reading has been a part of my life since I was little, and it is half the reason I am an English major. I've read loads of books, but there's so many books I still would like to read as well.

Traveling is an amazing experience and was a huge part of my life during my parent's time in the military. I love visiting new places, experiencing new people, and trying new things. I've been to Europe multiple times in my life, and I'd love to go back sometime soon. I've also been to a few places in the U.S., but much of my traveling has been overseas. My three years in college has sent me around the states more, and I've loved that all the same (at least until I can go to more exotic places when I have more money and time).
