Unfortunately it’s taken me two weeks to get this post up because despite the fact that I finished my pictures ages ago, I haven’t had time to sit down and pair it with stories of my aventures in Peru. Honestly, the trip was possibly one of the most rewarding and exciting experiences I’ve had abroad. […]Read Post ›
Even though I’m only an hour or less away from Malibu, I’ve never found the time to take in the coastlines, cliffs, and hiking ranges. But, this past Saturday, Hayley and I went hiking at the Mishe Mokwa Trail to Split Rock. The hike was surprisingly and pleasantly greener than the San Diego trip. I’ve […]Read Post ›
My new year’s resolutions were set with a purpose of helping me find happiness in Los Angeles and my time here on the West Coast. But, after a long week of classes, a little bit of rain and a three day weekend, my friend and I decided happiness would be found outside of the city; […]Read Post ›
Perhaps this comes a bit late, as it’s January eighth rather than the first, but, I find that in my busy life and scattered brain I never commit to resolutions unless I actually write them down. And, I haven’t had time to do that until now while sitting on a plane for eight and a […]Read Post ›
Perhaps I’ve waited so long to write this post because I know it means the end of an era. Aka…no more travel posts. If I do maintain a steady blog posting it can only include adventure stories of work, sleep, or biking a few miles somewhere and back. For now and probably for the near […]Read Post ›
Nice in nice…or some other cliche like this is something I tried to avoid saying because I’d heard the corny line too many times already; however, it’s true. I froze my butt off in Belgium then took a few finals and geared up for beach weather in the French Riviera. Hopelessly and forever on a […]Read Post ›
What does it sound like to stop and listen to the sounds of a city? Do you here some birds, a car horn, and the wind? We’ve gone to the streets of Rome to talk with three musicians, following their passions each day by adding music to the landscape of this eternal city. Thanks to my partners […]Read Post ›
It’s been a few weeks, so welcome back. Unfortunately, aside from this weekend, I’ve stayed in Rome trying to comfort my wallet and take some time to rest. It’s even a little ridiculous for me to say “unfortunately’ because I’m in ROME! not Los Angeles or some hyper-familiar place, but Rome, and I should appreciate […]Read Post ›
Family is forever, and you certainly don’t get to pick and choose who’s in it. Coming from a family of six, I’ve grown up in the middle of my siblings (two younger, one older) and with my parents, who’ve been in love since college. I like to think that, while we are all wonderful at […]Read Post ›
Well, I do think I enjoy places more with people I like. Seriously, it makes a huge difference. Traveling alone is lovely too, but it gets lonely, especially for an extrovert; I usually end up talking or singing to myself and looking like a crazy foreigner…which I am, but the public doesn’t need to be […]Read Post ›
Paired with La Vie en Rose, and Moulin Rouge Everyone dreams of the city of lights: a place to find romance, baguettes, and stripes. These dreams weren’t lost on me, but seeing a long time friend, Becca, and hopefully testing out my French skills, were added to the list. After midterms, which were the easiest tests […]Read Post ›
Paired with Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants and tropical songs about bungalows. My phone was switched to military time, I had a reasonable flight, and I was awake hours before needed to ensure, this time, I would not miss my plane to Greece. With my iPhone loaded with a new playlist, podcasts, and a movie, […]Read Post ›
