I FINALLY SAW THEM! Eight long months after leaving my loving parents, we were reunited in Paris! I gotta say, that long wait at the front of the greeting line at the airport was quite tense for me.. Waiting, watching for those two faces while grasping a fresh baguette and doting a black beret and stripedContinue reading “Mom & Dad Take France, Pt. 1: Paris”

An Ode to the Loire Valley
Pastels. Flowers. Castles. Easter is full of happiness, thanksgiving, love and sunshine. Every year, I spend this weekend with my family and we have Easter egg hunts, all the chocolate we can choke down, Grandma’s yummy dirt pudding and lots of laughter. I love Easter weekend and cherish the memories I’ve had with family duringContinue reading “An Ode to the Loire Valley”
Palais Garnier, the Paris Opera
Okay, so as I mentioned, my best friend Auburn came to visit me for her spring break. We went to London, we had lots of shenanigans, we did awesome stuff. Well, one of the awesome things that we did was go to the Paris Opera to see a show. This was something on my bucketContinue reading “Palais Garnier, the Paris Opera”
London Town
Last week, my best friend visited me here in Paris for her spring break. She’d told me before I ever even decided to move to Paris, that she’d spend her break with me and that’s exactly what she did. Aubs has never let me down. Anyway, we met up in London for the weekend beforeContinue reading “London Town”
Musée Grévin
Everyone knows that Paris is full of art and culture and beauty. There’s a museum around almost every corner and you can pretty much bet on the fact that you’ll see some type of art whether you’re out getting a street crêpe or you’re waltzing through a garden. With that being said, I went toContinue reading “Musée Grévin”
Stockholm, man.
Okay, so I realize that this post is a bit late seeing as how I was in Stockholm a little over two weeks ago but better late than never! So, without further ado, a story in photographs. Sweden was absolutely beautiful and as you can see, I had a blast. Special shout out toContinue reading “Stockholm, man.”
Medieval Adventures
Anyone who knows me knows how much I love to explore new places. I can get lost in a hike and just lose myself in the wilderness being happier than if I was ever within civilization. New places and new adventures make me happy. So so happy. And today was no exception. A few friendsContinue reading “Medieval Adventures”
Change is a wonderful part of life
A lot of things have been filling my thoughts recently. Namely, what I’ll be doing after leaving Paris. And ya know what? I’ve discovered something about myself that I never quite recognized before.. That I wasn’t made for the typical 9-5 working American life. I guess I’ve always known I didn’t want that but itContinue reading “Change is a wonderful part of life”
Paris Through the Eyes of an American
After almost five months of living in Paris, I feel it’s time to discuss how different it is from the States. So here it goes. 1. Everyone smokes. Seriously, I feel like I’m going to get lung cancer just walking down the street for five minutes at a time. It’s quite ridiculous. 2. Everything isContinue reading “Paris Through the Eyes of an American”
Give me coffee or give me…
For years, I’ve heard comments like, “Megan you need your coffee,” or “Did you drink your coffee this morning?” and “I don’t wanna see the day when you don’t drink coffee,” from my friends. This is due to the fact that I’m hopelessly addicted to that sweet, dark breath of life in a cup calledContinue reading “Give me coffee or give me…”
