BUILDING A COMMUNITY THROUGH
ideas, stories & conversations
THIS IS MY VISUAL JOURNAL
welcome
Hello, and thank you for making it this far! Welcome to In Reverie, my visual journal where I document life’s ups and downs during whatever stage of life that I am in. I hate to admit it, but I am certain I buy close to 10 journals a year, in hope that I might pick up a pen and fill it with my thoughts.. but I never do. I honestly do not know when to shut up, the people around me often hear the words “So, I was thinking…” which often follows with one of my often ridiculous ideas. So, let call this my first entry.
Let’s roll the intro, I’m Hannah. I’m a 26-year-old with a restless mind that is always buzzing with new ideas and aspirations. While always having these ideas, I find myself struggling to take action. Fear of failure and criticism seems to have a strong hold over me. I don’t know what I am doing, nor do I know where I am going, but I hope you find some insightful information along the way.
In Reverie exists to inspire creativity, embrace vulnerability, and foster a community of like-minded individuals on a journey toward self-discovery and personal growth. My mission is to build a supportive, judgment-free space where we can learn, grow, and celebrate the beauty in everyday moments together.
I'll be sharing my tips for exploring the world without breaking the bank, from house-sitting and affordable accommodations to finding the best budget-friendly travel options. I hope to inspire others to see the world’s beauty without feeling financially constrained.
My love for film photography is a big part of this blog. There's a special magic in capturing moments on film and experiencing the joy of seeing those memories develop into something tangible. It's a nostalgic reminder of flipping through old photo albums and reliving cherished memories. Through film, I aim to capture the world's beauty, preserving it in a way that feels both timeless and genuine.
Along the way, you'll discover a tapestry of interests and passions that make up my life. Whether it's baking a cake, or honing my design skills, this blog holds me accountable and pushes me to grow. Thank you for joining me on this adventure. Together, we’ll embrace the uncertainty, celebrate the imperfections, and create a life that’s authentically ours.
This is a space where we explore the beauty of the world through slow travel, creativity, and authentic living. This blog is my commitment to living the life I’ve always imagined. I want to share my experiences, learn from my mistakes, and grow alongside all of you.
At the heart of this journey is my struggle with anxiety and my fear of the unknown. I'm here to be open and honest about these challenges, so others can see they're not alone. I hope to build a community where we can feel comfortable with the uncomfortable and find strength in vulnerability. This is where we can have those deep conversations with friends—the kind that leave you feeling understood and less alone.
Traveling on a budget has been my reality, not just a choice. As a barista working long hours, saving money has always been a challenge. But it has taught me valuable lessons about resourcefulness and creativity.
