Things I'll Miss in Milwaukee

Believe it or not, I will miss this place. I'm overjoyed and SO ready to move abroad for the next year, but there are certainly things and people I will miss.

Unfortunately, this past week was a super busy one for me. I was packing, working a lot, and not actually seeing everyone I wanted to see or going everywhere I wanted to go. I did get a few pictures of some people and places I will miss, but there a lot left out of these snap shots. Here's what I've got though!


I will miss my house. My first ever apartment that I rented, I paid for, I kept clean (sometimes)... that I came home to each night. I'm all moved out now. Weird.

This is what I saw each night before I fell asleep and each morning when I woke up. :]

My transportation. I think it's safe to say that I couldn't have survived without this bike. Love my Bianchi. Thankfully I will still get to ride it in the next few weeks in MN.

I was so blessed this past year to have the BEST JOB ever. Everyone should check out Anaba. Going there at least once in your life really should be on your bucket list. Also, now I'm a tea snob. I really am. I'll really miss it there.

Head chef at Anaba and the best boss ever... Gregg. This is his "contemplative" face.

Heather, Emily, and Jamie. Co-workers and more importantly, friends. I'll miss everyone there. Too bad I don't have pictures of Sarah, Dani, Amy, Kyle, Adrian, Joe, or PJ. Shout out!

I will super miss biking down hills like this at 1 a.m. when there are no cars! SO SPEEDY!


This girl. Shmems. I think the photograph says it all.

How could you not miss Alterra once you've lived in Milwaukee for two years? But I'll miss this more...
ROAST. Best baristas, best iced coffee, best location, best atmosphere. I love it here so much. I can't wait to go back when I return!

I'll miss Comet! I love this restaurant! SPICY FRIES!

Kyle. One of the friends I'll miss. I was lucky enough to see him walking along Oakland Avenue a couple days before I left. I'll miss all my friends so much. I wish I had pictures of everyone!

Seriously the best Thai restaurant I've ever been to. Little hole in the wall place. Their red curry is to die for.

Mykel and Nick came to say goodbye as I was packing/cleaning my house. Thankful for them. Again, though, I wish I had photos of all my wonderful friends.

Epikos church. This place has been such a blessing! A place of fellowship, full of family and love. I love everything about Epikos and I will miss being there so much!

Fun times with my wonderful sisters! Jamie and Karley have both been SO influential in my life in the past year. Love them. I will miss them greatly!

There you have it. I could list all the other places and people I wish I had photos of, but that would just be ridiculous, let's be honest. I'm thankful for everything I've experienced these past couple years in Milwaukee! I shall return!
