Red: The Character That Defines Andrew Turnwall

By Normal Happenings Jun 15, 2020 / Leave a comment

What is Normal Happenings?

Put simply, we’re an optimistic blog focused on appreciating everyday life! We’re in the middle of a year-long blogging collab called The Characters That Define Us, and we hope you’ll join us for the journey!
