BEHIND THE BLOG
I'M GRETCHEN.
Basically, I'm the gal that caught the travel bug and never let it go.
I'M BIG ON: cheesy hashbrowns in the winter, scouting out where the pine trees smell the best, great photos and designing a life that you actually love.
You can usually find me running between Minnesota and Europe with my very southern Italian boyfriend (read: eats more carbs in a week than I could in a month), with a glass of wine in hand.
