 My friend Scarlet who had the most adorable British accent and became obsessed with talking to me and being my friend. We got off the old-fashioned way, with the staircase leading down to the open runway, instead of straight into the terminal. At the end of the staircase Scarlet was looking up at me laughing. WELCOME TO LONDON!
 I fell in love with these Love Bars while in Hong Kong
 The buses are just like HK! Amy and I lived in West Point together on our missions






 The Elgin Marbles! My humanities professor had me take a picture of them. So many of the things I saw are things I've studied in class! In person > Powerpoint

 Asian stuff!!!!!!!!!!
 Listening to the song of angry men....
 Made us so happy.
 Reunion with Victor!!



 Kensington Palace. I think. Despite Amy being Welsh and Victor LIVING in London, we were quite lost. hahahaha
 Harrod's. *cue Angelic aah-ing
 I also fell in love with Five Guys. So many in Utah, yet I had to go to London to try it





























































Lots of plane time on this trip. All alone. I bought some original poems from a man selling them near Shakespeare's Globe and it was exciting and somehow sentimental in a cinematic way. It's the little things that make the traveling cozy, feel safe, and fulfill that huge wanderlust hole in your heart. My first time traveling alone overseas made me feel like that hole was being filled and overflowed. So much joy, exhaustion, surprise, being humbled, talking to strangers, organizing, and love. Sometimes I was overwhelmed with how big the planet is and how many people live on it and yet Christ and Heavenly Father love them ALL perfectly.

HOLIDAYS

I was so happy the Mijatovic family came to visit! Even though we're not related my blood, we're family! My lovely grandparents The newlyweds invited us and their friends to see the lights at Temple Square, then enjoy some pie and hot cocoa at their adorable apartment, conveniently located right by the temple. Such fun! Thanksgiving with the Siskins ....And everybody else ;)
The world is big. It can be scary. It can be a lot of things, a lot of adjectives because well, it's the WORLD. But there is so much  good  in it. Make it your mission to notice the good in every day life. One thing that you can count on is the sun. It rises, it's warm, it gives light. Things we need. Things that are good, life sustaining, bright. Happiness is not a side affect of a perfect life. Waiting to be happy is just plain silly. Happiness wants to come into your life, in fact, it already has, so acknowledge and befriend it. Make it deeper and better with gratitude, consistence and effort. The good in the world is apparent and abundant, just like happiness. Focusing on the good doesn't mean we ignore the sad stuff going on, refuse to ever watch the news, or be ignorant of pressing matters around the world. It just means that you cling to hope, never give up, fight discouragement and let the good into your life. Let the good in, put some good out, let light radiate fr...
