Photos: Atlanta, Georgia

March 16, 2011

When I left for Pittsburgh it was for a couchsurfing event that I had gone to in the past. I was hoping that by the end of the event I’d find someone cool going somewhere new and I could tag along, but it didn’t quite happen that way. The reason I left Pittsburgh when I did was because I lined up a job in Atlanta as a brand ambassador. I took it because they were willing to pay me enough to cover my plane ticket down there and to be honest, I didn’t really have anywhere to go.

I ended up spending 3 weeks in Atlanta after I met good people, found work, and enjoyed the city well enough to dedicate some time to it. I spent my time hanging out in little five points and midtown. I worked in a couple places around the city and got to experience some cool things. Really though, like any place I go, it was the people that I met that made it worthwhile. From the time I stepped off the plane to the time I hopped in a car in little 5 points to leave, I was surrounded by good people.

It’s fun to go through these photos and get a chance to be taken back to that time before now. I traveled a lot of distance and have grown in a tremendous way since then. All of the problems I faced in Atlanta, Georgia seem a lot less significant to me now. It’s comforting to see the constant reminders that the worst days of our lives just end up days that have come and gone.
