About Me

Hey there, I’m so glad you’re here!

My name is Ashley Blair Smith and I am currently living in the beautiful city of Lynchburg, VA with my husband of almost 3 years, our little Sunshine Babe, and fat orange tabby cat Cheetah.

I grew up journaling about the everyday details of my mundane life in the country all while dreaming of what it would be like to move to the city. I’ve always had the need to express myself creatively, and writing has been that creative outlet for me ever since I was 11-years-old. However, it wasn’t until I was a junior in college that I started my first blog.

Throughout my college years I was hungry for travel and adventure, and I documented those experiences through photographs and writing on my previous blog. But recently I realized that I had outgrown that little space of mine and needed a fresh, new start.

I graduated from Liberty University in the fall of 2015 with a major in Communication Studies, specializing in Journalism, with a double minor in Writing and Photography.

Ashley Blair Smith was created as a way for me to share my thoughts in greater detail than an Instagram post will allow and as a way for you to get a glimpse into my small town, plant loving, coffee drinking, book obsessed life.

So what will this blog include? I like the idea of a lifestyle blog as it gives the freedom to write about so many different aspects of life, not just one topic or theme. My goal with this blog is to share the day-to-day, my travel experiences, health and wellness tips, recipes, and my pregnancy/motherhood journey.

I hope that you enjoy your time here and I pray that my words can help inspire and motivate you to live a life that is pleasing to Jesus.
