Leaving behind the sea and my old life, I journeyed to the vast, unfamiliar prairie, where the sky seems endless and the land stretches far beyond the horizon. My hope is to bring a touch of the sea to this dry, open space and build a new life with a family I've never met. Each day is a blend of discovery and challenge, as I learn to embrace this new world and make a place for myself in it. Will I find the family and home I've always dreamed of?

A Little Story About A Man And A Woman On A Highway
This story went through several iterations. It was inspired by some traffic I was enduring while on the highway. The section I was at curved around this big hill, almost like a small mountain with grass covering the top. I had this idea I called Rearview Romance where two characters would communicate with each other by writing messages back and forth while stuck in a similar kind of traffic. In the original idea, it ended with them dancing on the hill, inspiring others to get out and just enjoy the day and life a little bit. Obviously, it's evolved since then, but this was the kernel for the original story. Also, the Gone But Not Forgotten section below are characters I had to cut from the story for various reasons. I didn't want them to be forgotten though. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the story!Complete
