I'm not sure what I'm doing wrong with this challenge. My stuff looks the same as the stuff in the instructions and hint

index.html 
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <link href="styles.css" rel="stylesheet">
    <title>My Portfolio</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <header>
      <ul>
        <li><a href="#">About</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Work</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Contact</a></li>            
      </ul>

    <h1>My Web Design &amp; Development Portfolio!</h1> 
      <p>A site featuring my latest work.</p>

     <section>   
      <h2>Welcome</h2> 
        <p>Fusce semper id ipsum sed scelerisque. Etiam nec elementum massa. Pellentesque tristique ex ac ipsum hendrerit, eget feugiat ante faucibus.</p>
      <ul>
        <li><a href="#">Recent project #1</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Recent project #2</a></li>
        <li><a href="#">Recent project #3</a></li>     
      </ul>
      </section>

    </header>

    <footer>

      <p>&copy; 2017 My Portfolio</p>
      <p>Follow me on <a href="#">Twitter</a>, <a href="#">Instagram</a> and <a href="#">Dribbble</a></p>

    </footer>

Hi Chris!

The header should start/open above the ul tag.

It should close just after the first p tag.

You have the footer correct (although, I'd lose the blank lines inside - it would look cleaner).

Your section tag is correct, too.

Lastly, the top ul should be surrounded by nav tags.

I hope that helps.

Stay safe and happy coding!

Ah it was because I had the closing header tag in the wrong spot. Thank you!
