I'm stoked about this guest post.
I know you are all going to love, Heidi.
She is so funny! Seriously.
& I am pretty sure I tell her that EVERY time I talk to her.
She is probably sick of it, but it's true.
Plus, she and her husband are the cutest.
Oh, and she gets to travel A LOT, which makes me jealous!

First off I want to say thank you to Colie for having me. I
have loved our email/text exchanges over the past few weeks, she is truly a
breath of fresh air. And she has fun Instagram pics, you should follow her.
Bonus, her birthday is my wedding anniversary! Happy May 29th to us!
Hey! My name is Heidi and I blog over at Heidi of the Future. What
a strange name you might be thinking... yes, yes it is. I started my blog when
I moved to China in 2009 to teach English to university students. My family and
friends needed to stay up to date with all the weird food I was eating, so my
blog was created. At the time I was in the future, aka 14 hours ahead of
America, but now that I'm back stateside it sounds like I'm into science or
time travel or something...
Life didn't become normal just because I was back home in
Oklahoma (love you Oklahoma!). It actually might have gotten crazier, and China
is crazy. Ten months after returning from China I was married to my super long
distance out-of-the-country boyfriend who stuck with me when I said, "I'm
going to China, date me if you want, I'll be back in a year". He is also
from Oklahoma (miss you Oklahoma!) but moved to Philadelphia to start optometry
school.
So, I found myself married and moving the next day to
Philadelphia where he was the only person I knew. China prepared me for this...
my independence (I also was living in the city where independence happened… or
something like that). I lived there for 8 months before starting out on the
next journey of our life... optometry rotations. We move every 3 months to a
new state, and there is never a dull moment.
So I write about our day-to-day (or week-to-week, not a lot
happens sometimes, that's when I just post youtube videos) crazy adventures. We
have no money, no friends or family around us usually (we do right now in
Denver!), so it's just us... being gypsies... loving life, trusting God, and
seeing the country in a really unique way. I wouldn't have it any other way.
Well, okay, maybe getting paid, but that's all. Okay, and having my people to
travel along. That would be cool.
So come stop on by, say hi. Who knows, maybe I am moving to a
city near you, and I need friends... Like, really, I need friends. Anyone? Also
we need a place to live in Miami... anyone?

So, now go do yourself a favor and pop on over to her blog.
Say hello and stay awhile.
It will make her day! :)
Happy Wednesday, friends.
much love,
xoxo.
