Finding Kendra

The one where I try to find a way to not make 2020 a complete waste of space and list ways I'm working on improving myself going forward.

The place where I compile all of my life's wildest dreams and hope to inspire some of yours, too.

The one in which I tell you my schedule for PST in my first month in Zambia and hope you realize why I've disappeared and am so super tired.

The one where I reflect on my life and list the biggest lessons I've learned from it.

The one where I explain how stuck I felt in 2017 and my plans to move forward again and achieve some goals in 2018!

The one where I explore the hilarious differences and the pieces of life I miss moving from my life in Japan to my old-new life in the U.S.

The one where I discuss the big changes I've seen in myself since living abroad and why I think they're important.

The one where I review past goals I've made and figure out a plan to move forward in my new life!

It’s been just over two months since I left Japan and moved back to southern California. Two months of eating Mexican food by the bucket...

The one where I tell my stories and share my overwhelming love of this incredible country I've come to call home and will miss terribly.

The one where I awkwardly outline how I turn an idea, thought, or dream into a concrete, attainable goal and show how you can too!

The one where I explain why having tangible goals is so important and what my goals will be for the next ten years.

The one where I describe spring and summer in Japan--what to do, how to survive, and the pros and cons of visiting during them.

The one in which I break down my day, hour by hour, and tell you exactly what a day in my life as an ALT in rural Japan looks like.

The one in which I break down my monthly budget for you as an Interac ALT in rural Japan and tell you why I spend the way I do.

The one in which I talk about how it feels to leave my wonderful family behind and strategies to get over the inevitable homesickness.
