So here it is–the invitation to learn the context of my life to live vicariously through me. Everything, anything you want to know about Hope College: the people, the food, the places, the friends, your faith, your dreams, your future, your life.
To Study, Or Not to Study?
To Study, Or Not to Study? Holland, Michigan is so absolutely beautiful, so I constantly feel tempted to explore the outdoors and play in the current beautiful weather.
