Hello there! My name’s Ana Katrina and I’m a year old nurse in the United States Air Force. I am from South Jersey and currently reside in Mississippi with my husband James and adopted dog Magnolia. We love to travel! If interested in seeing some of our trips, check out AJdventures! Some of my hobbies include spending time with my family, trying new restaurants and foods, taking long walks with Magnolia, reading books, and enjoying the outdoors. I hope to fill this site with things that are relevant and interesting in my life — personal experiences, fitness, nursing, military lifestyle, traveling, etc.
