About This Site

My name is Jamie Lyssa. I have 5 cats, and I’m a special ed teacher. I’m a Slytherclaw [with a touch of Gryffindor] and an INFJ. I like reading, concerts, photography, road trips,  video-games, and I am highly addicted to caffeine.  This blog is my little corner of the internet. I mostly use this as a travel blog so that people can read about all of the road-tripping/camping adventures that my husband Justin and I have, but occasionally you’ll get something else… like a book review, video-game review, or meaningful post. But it’s mostly trip reports and photographs.

Thank you for checking out my little corner of the internet. I hope you enjoy your stay here.
