A different adventure...

I've been pondering for awhile what to do with my existing blog (tiertravels.blogspot.com) since I am no longer abroad. I was going to let it die, but I was inspired by my lunch with a college friend on Monday. As we discussed future plans and academia and literature, she encouraged me to keep writing. And so, here I am.

I mused over an appropriate blog title for awhile...Confessions of a basement dweller? No, it hasn't gotten that bad yet. Failure to Launch? No, I launched; I just came back. I thought I had settled on A Smaller Adventure, but I realized I didn't want to limit myself like that. Who says this has to be a smaller adventure?? It will be different. Maybe worse. But hopefully not. Just different.

After spending a year riding motorcycle through palm trees in basketball shirts and tank tops while practicing my Spanish, it hardly seems that moving back into my parents home and my walk-in closet-sized room is a step up. But I believe God's next step for my life is graduate school, so this is where I am. In a little bit I'm off to my final interview for a poorly-paid Spanish teaching job. So here I go! I'm broke, (currently) unemployed, about to turn 24, and I live with my parents.

I hope it's an adventure worth blogging about...
