How to Take Your Own Photos without Instagram (Boy)Friends
Dear readers, it’s Bethanny. Sorry for disappearing. Between finishing graduate school and everything else in life, posting regularly on this blog wasn’t quite easy.

Super Easy Tips for Eco-friendly and Sustainable Travel
Dear readers, here I am sitting in the Chicago Midway Airport, just casually waiting for my flight to Toronto. And since it has been a while since I wrote my last lifestyle post, I thought I would kill time and write another one.
