Last year I was desperate to find a job to fill the void in my life that was looming at the end of my internship. I never expected the job that would fall in my lap, or the way that job has changed my life.

Why DevinePerks.com?
Today, while I was sitting at home, I felt the urge to write in my blog for the first time in a long time. Now, I pay to keep this site personalized how I wanted it, and I have absolutely underutilized it the entire two years I have paid for it. I barely post anything. … Continue reading Why DevinePerks.com?
A Childlike Joy
This morning at church there was a young boy, probably around 2 years old sitting in front of me with his family. He was well behaved and quiet for the better part of the service, dancing and clapping during worship and sitting quietly through the message. As most children do, he eventually because restless and … Continue reading A Childlike Joy
Italy 2019: Day 5
Today was originally supposed to be a bit of a throw away day. With how much we accidentally saw over the course of the first few days, we'd checked off almost everything on our list by the time Tuesday rolled around. With that being said, we agreed to spend the morning sleeping in a bit … Continue reading Italy 2019: Day 5

What … Continue reading Italy 2019: Day 3

I have always strive to be fairly smart when it comes to money. And when it comes … Continue reading Italy 2019: Day 1
Italy 2019: Day Two
I have to admit that waking up from a post 38 hours of traveling slumber is one of the greatest feelings in the world. I have always been a fairly light sleeper and over the past few years, I have grown into the habit of waking up during the night, occasionally multiple times. Peeling my … Continue reading Italy 2019: Day Two
Packing for International Flights
Packing: I prefer to pack light. For 10 days or less, a carry on and personal bag is more than enough. Pack at least one or two changes of clothing in your personal bag, as well as any electronics or important documents. This will stay under your seat and easy to access. You carry on … Continue reading Packing for International Flights
Tips and Tricks for International Travel
When it comes to packing for international travel, I am by no means a professional. But I have been around the globe a time or two now, and I have learned quite a bit from research and the joys of personal experience. International flights can be such a pain! Layovers, long flight times, annoying seat … Continue reading Tips and Tricks for International Travel
