"I don't travel to escape life —
I travel to find more of it."
I'm Lauryn — writer, creator, and perpetual seeker of golden-hour moments. Chasing Horizons is where my travel stories, film photography, poetry, and creative work all live together. It's my world, and I'm so glad you found it.
When I'm not writing about a place I've just left or planning where I'll go next, you can find me at the pottery wheel, with a paintbrush, or scribbling poems about oceans I've stood at the edge of.

boundless, endless —
bends to no one's will but her own,
flows at her own pace,
moves with delicacy and grace.
Poetry, painting, and pottery — the slow, tactile, soulful work that keeps me grounded between adventures.
There's something about shaping something from nothing with your hands. My pottery practice is meditative, imperfect, and deeply mine.
Color as emotion. I paint what I feel about places more than what they look like — layered, expressive, and always warm.
Words that arrive when I'm standing somewhere beautiful. My poetry is observational, intimate, and written from the edge of things.
