The South didn’t just welcome me—it wrapped around me. From misty mountain mornings to nights thick with summer air and porchlight conversations, it felt like stepping into a story already in motion. I remember thinking, “This place doesn’t rush to explain itself—and somehow, that made it feel more honest.”
What stayed with me were the textures: live oaks heavy with moss, biscuits that tasted like memory, music drifting from open doors, and voices that carried both softness and strength. The South moved slow—but its impact stayed long after I’d left. It taught me how to sit still, how to listen, and how to feel more deeply than I expected.
