i'm leaving... in a mazda... don't know when i'll be back again...




so the title of my first post isn't quite as catchy as the original tune, but it's true and i like it.

in 3 (extremely short) weeks, i'm heading west. folks, this is big. it's time for a change and some adventure. i'm driving out with an amazing friend, brooke oliver. and we have lots of america to see before we get there. i'm going to use this blog to add photos and tell our tales of the open road. comments of encouragement and prayers of safety and provision and gladly accepted here.
i love you!

  2. Hi Maura! I'm Brooke's friend in LA :) I can't wait to meet you and hear about your adventures. I've been praying for y'all's road trip already, and now I'll start praying for your big move, too. Even though I knew without a shadow of a doubt that God wants me in LA, I was scared a lot. But He has blessed me with a place to live, a job to pay rent, amazing brothers and sisters all around me, and a HUGE heart for the people here. I pray that you will experience the same peace, joy, and excitement of following our beautiful Lord. And I pray that you won't have too many stressful days of packing!!!

  4. Hey Maura! I'm April's friend Caroline who moved to Portland almost exactly a year ago. My husband and I did the cross-country road trip thing and have absolutely loved living in the pacific northwest. We recently moved to the Kenton/St Johns neighborhood, so from what I hear, we'll be close by! Have an amazing journey and make sure you keep up with that blog cause I'm really excited to read it :) Seeya when you get the the coolest city in America!
