My Favorite Place... Strands Beach!

One of my favorite places is actually where I live. It is in Dana Point, California and it is a beach called Strands Beach. This beach is one of my favorite places because every time I go I feel very relaxed and like there is no worries in the world. It is a long stretch of sand and ocean which also makes it a very nice beach to walk on. I like to spend mornings walking on the beach and then going back later in the day to lay out in the sun and relax. I have created so many amazing memories there with family and friends and it will forever be one of my favorite places in the world.

This is a picture of the long walk you can do along the beach. 

This is a photo that I took while at the beach. My friend and I got an açaí bowl for lunch and went and sat on the rocks at the beach to eat them while looking out at the ocean.

    Yay for California beaches, Sophie! I used to live in Daly City (south of San Francisco), and your beach picture made me think of the coastline there. Although there was no place nearby to snag an açaí bowl ... you had to bring your own munchies. I still miss it! Thornton State Beach link :-)

 Hello! My name is Sophie Martin. I am from Orange County, California. I was born and raised there so I know the area very well. Although my family has moved a few times we have generally live in the same part of Orange County. I am very close to my family. I have two older sisters who are amazing. My middle sister does behavioral therapy with children who are on the spectrum and she loves it very much. My oldest sister is an amazing chef and now is working to get her masters in teaching. She also just got married this past summer. She is the first out of all of us to get married so it was very special. I also gained my first brother from this so it was an amazing experience altogether.  My major is public relations with a minor in communication. I absolutely love learning more in this topic. I always knew I wanted to do something social but taking classes in public relations definitely makes me like it even more. I know this major is broad so there are many different paths I can take

They did this because they thought she would not make it on her own. But the girl learned many things and survived on her own. She had the kittens and kept them fed.
