Hello world! We are Renee and Evan, and we are the wildflowers doing this whole journey thing. So, welcome to the journey!
Who are we?
My husband and I are self-proclaimed wildflowers and we want to take you with us, but first, let me tell you a little bit about us!
I’m Renee, a 24 year old with a passion for exploring and finding all the beauty mother earth has to offer. My husband, Evan, is a 27 year old who loves being outdoors, whether he is hiking or playing football with some friends. Together, we have two perfect dogs— Albus and Luna (yes, after Harry Potter), and we are building a beautiful life!
Some fun facts about us:
- In 2018, we met on Bumble, and in 2022, we got married!
- We both work full time jobs while living in Jacksonville, Florida. I am a research coordinator and Evan is an electrician!
- We are die-hard Jaguars fans, so you can never question our loyalty. DTWD.
- Halloween is my favorite holiday, and Evan’s favorite is Christmas.
- Evan has had a full-on handlebar mustache since the day we met. I married a man without ever knowing what his bare face looks like!
- I am equally left and right brained. While I’ve always been creative and spontaneous, I’ve also been a very structured and analytical person. It’s a roller coaster!
- Evan is a sports fanatic, and he never misses a game or the opportunity to play one.
Our purpose:
Now that introductions are out of the way, I want to tell you about our purpose here! On this blog, we want to share everything we possibly can: likes/dislikes, tips and guides, suggestions, and inspiration to help you plan your next adventure! This journey thing isn’t just about traveling, though— this is our journey through life!
Something that Evan and I formed a deep connection over was the outlook we share on life. We have so many goals and aspirations, and even if they seem to be a little different from the social norms, we’re okay with that! We both know we want to see the world and grow together, even if that means going against the grain.
The Bucket List:
We have taken many trips as a couple, mostly close to home— but we have sooo many plans for the future!
The list, made simple:
- Visit all the National Parks in the continental United States (2/62 ✔️)
- Take a Ring Road trip around Iceland ✔️
- Explore the reefs and rainforests of Australia
- See the Patagonia in Argentina
- Go to England for a pro soccer game
Please follow along with us as we take this leap and begin our documented journey as wildflowers!
