Curator’s statement
This destination isn't just a dot on the map — it's my happy place, where my soul feels truly alive. Saying goodbye to St. Louis and hello to Raleigh, North Carolina, marked a new chapter of independence and discovery in my life. Now, with my two furry pals in tow, I am escaping to Myrtle Beach to bask in the sun and surf, where every wave whispers tales of adventure and self-discovery.
But here's the twist: My love affair with North Myrtle Beach began two years ago on a spontaneous trip that captured my heart, inspiring me to make Raleigh my new home sweet home. The sheer magic of this coastal paradise played a significant role in that decision — it's where I found serenity and joy like never before.
