Summer is, by leaps and bounds, my favorite season. School is out, the weather is beautiful, and I get to celebrate some of my favorite holidays (plus my birthday). Since I’m a teacher, I also tend to view summer as an opportunity for new beginnings. The old school year is done and I get set goals and resolutions for the next one.
Between getting married, honeymooning, graduating with my Master’s degree, and moving to New York, last summer was a complete whirlwind. I’m so excited to lay, somewhat, low and enjoy my first full summer in the city. That being said, I like to keep myself busy and goal-oriented. Check out my summer bucket list below and follow along in the adventures!
