who i am




"I am not what I ought to be.  I am not what I want to be.  I am not what I hope to be.  But still, I am not what I used to be, and by the grace of God, I am what I am."
-John Newton

i'm jana, a normal girl, who has been saved by some amazing grace, through an awesome Savior.  

i want to make memories all over the world + capture them through my lens + live life, looking forward to all that it will bring.  
i will (unashamedly) accept chocolate from strangers + drink coffee no matter the weather.  
i dance in the rain + stay up too late + gush about sunsets and sunrises.   
i firmly believe that people who love to eat are always the best people (thank you jula child) + that life should be lived with the purpose of being deep, rather than long (r.w.e. had some good thoughts). i will forever have a wandering heart through this life, as He has taken me to so many places + filled them with people that i have come to love.  
i am on a journey with my Savior as He leads me where He wants me + is growing me for His glory, painfull as it is sometimes.
