Hello all!
Since I moved to Detroit in August, life has been an exciting whirlwind. Between starting a new position, meetings tons of [wonderful] new people, and learning what it actually means to be a Challenge Detroit fellow, it’s been hard to keep up. So now I turn to one my favorite past times when life feels disorderly: making lists!
As we have been introduced to so many wonderful people, places, and causes in the D, I decided that the best way to start would be to make a Bucket List of all of the things that I would like to do during my Challenge Detroit year.
While some items on the list may be cliché, I’ve learned a little more about the city and myself from each exploration yet [Heidelberg][Eastern Market][People Mover][Slows][Comerica][Packard Plant][Detroit Soup]. I can’t wait to see MORE.
