FINALLY SOUTH 😃 North Carolina:

After passing through the northern part of the state and getting some seriously sketchy vibes in the run down rural region, we were relieved to find that the coastal part of NC is a dream!

We started off at Carolina State Beach Park- and all we can say is WOW! 🤩 I was so moved by the nature there that I had to shed a tear of gratitude- from the sandy pine paths, the incredible new plant smells, Spanish moss draped trees, crazy huge driftwood, buzzing insects galore, and the absolute hi light: VENUS FLYTRAPS IN THE WILD. I have always had these since I was a kid at home- getting to meet them in their natural habitat was an honor!

We were able to do the entirety of the park in a day, and nearly all of it barefoot 🦶

The next day we met up with an old friend, Emma, and her sweet baby doggo Buckley, and went on a walk and to a cute little farmers market.

Something I’ve noticed here: southerners take their dogs EVERYWHERE, despite all the laws. And off leash. I am 100% here for that and thank you southern doggos, for the daily interactions 🥰

Although we had planned on seeing Wilmington itself, we decided against it after hearing that it was an event-filled weekend and that the city was absolutely packed. Instead we decided to move on to somewhere more chill for our Saturday night 🙃Læs mere
