Hello? America? Is that you? This is Allie. I am calling to let you know that I have fallen in love with this side of the world and I am not sure I will be able to leave. I hope you understand. _____________________________________________ Thank you @mattiaconodp for taking the most touristy picture for me 🙃

On my flight back home from Washington last week, there was this advertisement on the plane that said, "Good things don't come to those who wait, good things come to those who go." - I'm not sure why, but I spent most of my 5 hour flight thinking about this cheesy line over and over again. I realized that I have been waiting. Waiting to feel good enough, waiting to feel confident, waiting for something that will never really happen because I was too afraid to ever actually go for it. I know it's cheesy and cliché and just an ad to get people to fly with Delta, but I needed it. So if you're reading this, maybe you needed to see this too. Maybe you need a reminder to go do the thing that scares you, go do the thing that keeps you up all night wishing you had the confidence or wishing you were good enough to do. You are good enough. You can do it. And if this doesn't resonate with you, I'm sorry. I will be back with more cheesy captions in another five months. ;)

A marble inside someone's pocket. . . . #supermoon #nikond5100 #luna #space #universe #deepthoughts #frenchfries #hashbrowns #icecream

Sunsets sort of remind me of losing someone you love, even though they left and you can't see them anymore, you can still feel their warmth like they are still there, like they never really left at all. (@mattiaconodp would make fun of me and call this "an Allie Thought" - I have a lot a weird thoughts and thought I would start sharing them again:)

When I was little, I used to imagine earth as one of many little marbles inside someone's pocket. I would imagine what we looked like from far away, like these tiny little lives that had so much power but were too busy to notice the impact they had. We live in a time where money is more important than the air we breathe, water we drink, and the food we eat and our home is hurting. Today is a reminder to treat our home better and use our power to keep this earth as the beauty she is. Happy day mama earth 🌎🌻 #wecandobetter

I forgot that I lived in Florida and how beautiful it can be, I also forgot to update my Instagram since January. I am going to try to post more often, but to be honest, I will probably forget. 🙃 #foreverplayingwithmyfood

*Plays "I'll be seeing you" by Billie Holiday and cries over the fact that it's not Christmas anymore and school starts in a week* #billiejustgetsme #thetravelinghand #nikon #nikonD5100

I woke up at 7am to play in the snow and while I was catching snowflakes on my tongue, my neighbor walked out and stared at me and suddenly I felt 20 y.o. again and not 6, but tbh I know his inner child wanted to make snow angels with me 🙃❄️☃ #kidforlife #nikon #nikonD5100

Here is a photograph of a time when I was lost and it didn't affect my GPA. 📍🌲🍂🍃🌿🍁 #thetravelinghand #nikon #d5100 #yosemite #travel #explore #nature

How to wear a sweater in FL 101: #1. Put on sweater. #2. Turn the AC in your house to 68°. #3. Go sit by a window and pretend you're outside. #4. Never actually go outside.

Would much rather be finding flowers in Yosemite than finding the answers to my math problems right now 😭 #wheredoestimego #thetravelinghand #yosemitenationalpark #nikon #d5100 #nikonphotography
