I was born and raised in Colorado and still call it home to this day. Strangely, though, I feel most at home when I'm near the ocean. I've only actually vacationed on the coast a handful of times, but the sensory experiences remain deeply ingrained in my memory. The scent of salty air, the soothing, repetitive sound of waves hitting the seashore, the feel of the ocean breeze on my face; these memories surface again and again, and I find myself daydreaming of returning to the seashore over and over.
