My Travel Story

Hi, my name is Ashley, I'm 25 yrs old, I have a 3 yr old son and an amazing partner. The past couple years have been pretty much down hill, 2018 I lost my mom to cancer, which sent me into a spiral of destruction. So bad that I left the one person who truly cared about me and my son because I couldn't get myself under control. Drugs, alcohol, other women, and probably a couple more things, it took me over, not to mention I've struggled with depression my whole life. Well anyways, skip a couple of years and here we are, living in an RV in North Carolina, working full-time grave yard shift, traveling every weekend to see my ole lady and son. I had to get away from Georgia, I was ruined because of the choices I made in life and karma was getting me. I had to get away and start over. My dad lives in Waynesville NC, and after him being locked up most of my life he was actually trying everything he possibly could to make an effort so I took the chance to get out. Even though that meant leaving my family for a bit, I was ready. I moved here, got a job, not even three months in a promotion, stopped drinking (drinking led to the drugs) have been doing everything I can to do right. I literally do nothing but, work, sleep, eat, and travel. Which gets experience, plus trying to save for a place for your family. Oh and catching up on all the financial disaster you created. It's stressful but I feel like a completely different person here and it's been a blessing. This is the longest I've held a job in a while and it feels great, well if every pay check wasn't gone as soon as it hits my hand. At this point I'm willing to try almost anything, my family is everything to me and with it being the holidays I could really use the extra help. I know this is long but I'm taking my shot lol. Anything is helpful!
