Sister Trip to Puerto Rico

In July, my sister and I decided to do a somewhat spontaneous trip to Puerto Rico because… why not? It’s safe to say that we are official survivors of the Bermuda Triangle now, after the roughest few minutes of our lives (extreme turbulence on the plane, people screaming, death grips on each other). When we finally touched down in Puerto Rico after a grueling early morning flight I felt like a ghost and as if I had lived to see another day (lol). We spent the next few days walking around, exploring, chatting, and just enjoying being together. We cozily tucked into bed early in our room to watch some Netflix both nights, which might have been one of my favorite parts (along with our beach day, where we just read on the beach for a few hours). I dreamy of doing sister trips like this together when I was a kid, so to have my dream play out in real life sometimes feels surreal! I am, and will always be, my sister’s biggest fan and supporter. She is so beautiful and smart — and I was reminded that she is the forever apple of my eye. I am so glad I get to do life with her. Xoxo.
