39. Spain. Still figuring it out.

I don’t have it figured out. I’m doing it anyway.

I’m Erica. I built a career I was proud of, then it stopped fitting my life. So I moved my family to Spain, went back to school, and started building again from scratch. I share the middle part while I’m still in it.

I used to think the polished version was the real one. Turns out I like this one better.
