My First Journal Entry
Mary in Bozeman, Montana
Nestled on a snowy road in Carrabassett Valley sits a cozy A-frame cabin, surrounded by string lights against the backdrop of snow-covered pines. The scene feels like stepping into a postcard, instantly wrapping me in the warm nostalgia of my college days.
Back then, I would spend nights at the Maine Outing Club Cabin, just down the road from this very spot, after unforgettable days with friends at Sugarloaf Mountain. Those weekends were more than just escapes—they were moments that shaped me, filled with laughter, adventure, and a growing love for the kind of life I wanted to live.
This quick weekend getaway has given me the space to reconnect with myself, find inspiration, and reflect on the places and moments that made me who I am. It’s reminded me of what I truly love and what I’m eager to experience more of as I continue the journey of life.
Stay tuned as I share my journal entries along the way, tracing my steps from here to wherever life leads. My dream is to someday find my way back to Maine… <3
But for now, my story begins as a graduate student in Montana—and it is a place that’s just as wild as the dreams I’m chasing.
