In the summer of my sophomore year of college, I started a casual blog to document my study abroad experiences in Paris, France. I had no idea I would enjoy writing and taking pictures as much as I did, and in many ways, it was one of the first times I felt like I was able to truly express my ideas, perspectives, and voice.
And so, I shut down my casual blog and started an official one. A Dash of Gumption was born.
I am neither a professional photographer nor a fabulous, Insta-worthy traveler/foodie, so I cannot guarantee you glamorous and perfect content. What I can assure you, however, is that every snapshot, thought, and experience documented here comes from a place full of passion and sincerity.
I truly hope you enjoy my take on the world, and thank you so much for reading!
