Visiting Waterton Lakes National Park // Canada
We’ve been back in the USA now for a month, and are so grateful to have caught the tail end of summer here in Montana. I love the end of summer, when the weather starts to get a little cooler, the trees are still green, and the days are still long. Our 5th wedding anniversary…

Real Talk // Life in Battambang
Life isn’t always perfect, and I think it’s all too easy to paint the picture of a “perfect” life on social media. I don’t want to create a false image of our life abroad, and so I thought I’d dedicate this post to sharing a few challenges that we face in our day to day…
