Growing up, I honestly never thought about where I was going to go to college. I figured I’d always go, but it just never crossed my mind as to where.
So you might be wondering, why Arizona? How Arizona?
Honestly, I don’t have a reasonable answer. My mom joked around and said I should look at schools in Arizona (even though we don’t have family out there) and I took it seriously and it ended up being one of the best decisions I’ve made.
Immediately when I moved, I felt at home and that this is where I should be. Throughout my 4 years in university, I explored every corner of the state, yet I still have so much more to see! Arizona is truly one of the most beautiful places I’ve been to, even after all of the traveling I’ve been doing lately.
