2014 was a year of change. Such important shifts happened in my life this year that instead of just one cohesive year, it feels more like two. The year felt very split into phases for me, either into “before graduation” and “after graduation” or “before Prague” and “after Prague.” While making this Best of 2014 collage, I almost forgot about the “before Prague” phase, automatically sliding that whole part of the year (a big chunk of it–over six months!) into 2013.
As much as 2014 was a year of change, this brought the roller coaster of emotions one might expect with many events of change. So many goodbyes and new beginnings, so many let downs and triumphs, so many highs and lows. It’s difficult for me to categorize the year at all.
I foresee 2015 as another year of change–but really, is there any other kind? More importantly, should there be any other kind?
Even though this is later into 2015 than I had originally planned, it just wouldn’t feel right not to bid farewell to all of my favorite moments of 2014. What a year it was! Enjoy my best of 2014 (in no particular order).

Thanks, Cynthia! It was a pretty crazy year…like I said, Prague feels like an entire new one, though 🙂 Happy New Year to you, too! Hope your 2015 is off to a great start!

What a busy, wonderful year! It is so true when you make such a big life change, like move abroad, it feels like everything that happened before that was apart of a different year! Here is to another amazing year!
