Intro turning up as a link instead of regular text.

In the CSS lesson I'm currently changing the color of my fonts to a sort of peach color. All my other text is changing fine except for my intro which is coming up as a link. Could somone please explain to me why this is the case when I haven't intentionally put any tags around the text to make it that way. I've checked against the downloadable HTML file and the code looks the exact same to me. What am I doing wrong?

Any solution would be appreciated.

Screenshot of how it is appearing in the browser: https://www.dropbox.com/s/mevpu1ta0d17y2x/Webpage%20for%20title%20linkl%20error.jpg

How it should look: https://www.dropbox.com/s/s08v6g1zb77pxmj/Correct%20Webpage.jpg

Code is text-based, when posting code, it's always a code idea to post the actual text and not an image of it. In future post a working demo of your code using codepen.io

It's what Don Said, you haven't closed the anchor at the end of contact us, so the browser interprets it as if everything after you opened the anchor tag IS THE SAME anchor link.
