Mississippi moved slower—and that was the gift. Roads curved through farmland and faded towns, and everywhere I went, people made time to talk, to share, to look you in the eye. I remember thinking, “This isn’t just travel—it’s connection.”
What stayed with me were the voices—gospel in a small church, blues spilling from an open doorway, a museum guide who spoke like every word mattered. The food was deep and comforting. The stories were layered. I left Mississippi full—body, mind, and heart.
