Back Stateside (For Now)
I’M HOME! After one year, eight countries and 22 cities, I’m back in America! It was one crazy ride of a year and I enjoyed every second. So much travel, so many foreigners, so much food. And now I’m back. After wheeling my oversized monster suitcases through Dublin and the airport and then an exhaustingContinue reading “Back Stateside (For Now)”
Dublin: A Last Stop On a Road of Yearlong Adventures
What does a broke American girl with 24 hours in Dublin do? Drink Guinness. Lots and lots of Guinness. I’m on my last stop of adventures here in Dublin before returning to the US after being gone a year and only had 24 hours here in this beer-drowned city. To get here was quite a struggle.Continue reading “Dublin: A Last Stop On a Road of Yearlong Adventures”
Liverpool & Chester: A Day of Chasing Down The Beatles & Resting at Central Perk
“You say you want a revolutiooooon..” I’m still in awe at what I did today.. Spending time walking down Mathew Street – Beatles capital of the world! I went into the iconic Cavern Club and listened to some live music, bought a Beatles’ hits record from the 60s and had the time of my life.Continue reading “Liverpool & Chester: A Day of Chasing Down The Beatles & Resting at Central Perk”
The Best Way to Travel – Advice From A Well-Traveled Traveler
We travel the world to venture outside our own culture and absorb another. To travel is to gain knowledge like never before and to experience something outside of yourself. You expose yourself to the people around you and the vibrancy of whatever place you’re in at that time. Real travel means placing yourself in theContinue reading “The Best Way to Travel – Advice From A Well-Traveled Traveler “
An Abundance of Sheep
I’ve been in Wales one day. I think I should live here. I’ve never seen so much beautiful nature in my life. I mean, mountainous hills and “TREES?! Everywhere trees?!!” (any It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia fans out there?) Oh, and sheep. So many sheep. I found that out tonight when I went on aContinue reading “An Abundance of Sheep”
Welcome to Wales
Good morning, Wales! My current backpacking trip has led me to the beautiful and green country of Wales. So far I can deduce that the number of sheep greatly outweighs the number of humans and the company is already impressively kind – and I’ve only been here less than an hour! This morning I gaveContinue reading “Welcome to Wales”
Grillstock – A Day of Serving Up Ice Cream in England
Alright so I cannot believe what I just spent my day doing. I woke up bright and early with Gem and then drove in to Bristol to work all day at a BBQ/music festival called Grillstock serving ice cream. And eating it. Okay, I did a lot more eating it than I did serving itContinue reading “Grillstock – A Day of Serving Up Ice Cream in England”
Long Walks & Slippery Stairs
I started my day out today by almost shattering my tail bone. Yup. Klutz McGee tried walking down the spiral stairs today in socks and ended up slipping down the entire staircase. I’m still sore tonight, over 12 hours later and still have a massive scrape down the length of my arm. But a perkContinue reading “Long Walks & Slippery Stairs”
Soaking up Bath
Roman ruins & bubbling brooks. That’s how I spent my day today in Bath, England. It’s always been a dream of mine to go to Bath and see what all the bathtub hullabaloo is about and today I found out – and it’s totally a whole lot of hullabaloo to go crazy over. GemContinue reading “Soaking up Bath”
